Nearly half million Bulgarians suffer from diabetes

The World Health Organization recommended that people should reduce by half the daily consumption of sugar due to the increasing number of patients suffering from diabetes. In Bulgaria the number of the officially registered patients with diabetes amounts to 300,000. However, according to health experts, their real number is close to half a million. Associate Professor Daniela Popova from Tsaritsa Yoanna Multi-Profile Hospital for Active Treatment said that the genetic factors of that disease may not be activated throughout the whole life of the people if they manage successfully the factors from their environment. In her words, the Type 2 Diabetes which has been associated until recently with elderly people only, affects Bulgarian children, too. This is due to child obesity and bad lifestyle, accompanied with low physical activity.
