Dear Colleagues,

Diabetes is serious disease caused by excess glucose in blood stream due to the body's inability to produce or utilize sufficient levels of insulin. In 2003 the global prevalence of diabetes was estimated at 194 million. This figure is predicted to reach 333 million by 2025 as consequence of longer life expectancy, sedentary lifestyle, and changing dietary patients.
