From the Paper:
"One of the fastest-growing medical problems facing the world today is chronic hyperglycemia, or diabetes. Although diabetes is found in nearly 30 million people over the age of 65, it is rapidly materializing in adolescents and even children (White, 2006). Hyperglycemia occurs when a disproportionate amount of glucose is distributed throughout the blood plasma. Excess glucose may have several causes, including genetic cases of diabetes mellitus, eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa, or times of psychological stress. Because of the multitude of causes, significant attention is beginning to be focused upon the management and care of the disease."
