Type 2 diabetes is growing fast in the U.S. - more than 23 million Americans have the disease and another 57 million are hovering dangerously close to developing it - and the diagnosis automatically puts patients at increased risk of other health problems, including heart disease, stroke, kidney problems and eye abnormalities...
