Diabetes is a major problem in the United States.   Over 100 million people have pre-diabetes or diabetes.  This is an epidemic.  Diabetes has serious consequences, leading to amputations, cardiovascular disease, blindness, etc.

In this lecture to the TEDx audience in Fremont, California, Dr. Barnard describes in simple terms how and why  diabetes occurs.  He then describes how diabetes can be controlled and actually reversed with a low fat plant based diet.
