Avoid all processed foods, all refined carbohydrates and sugars. Engage in regular physical exercise. Never drink soft drinks. Take superfood supplements like chlorella and spirulina. These simple steps can prevent and even reverse virtually all type-II diabetes in the world.

From 1985 to 2001, the percentage of women defined as overweight increased to 26 per cent from 19 per cent.
