Default Diabetes and Heart Disease

Another one of those lengthy, interconnected set of articles from Everyday Health. This one is about the indisputable link between diabetes (particularly type II) and heart disease, and how you can minimize the risks.

An adult with diabetes has as high a risk of death from heart attack as someone who has already had a heart attack. In fact between 65% and 75% of those with diabetes will die of cardiovascular complications. This is a death risk that is 2 to 4 times higher than the risk for non-diabetics.

Important information here, gang . . .
