There are millions of Americans suffering with Type 2 diabetes .
In the past type 2 diabetes was thought to be an adult disease, however, due to the number of children who have been diagnosed with this condition in the past few years, it is no longer considered to be just an adult disease.
Most young people found to be Type 2 diabetic are usually aged between 10 and 19, obese, and from a family with history of this condition.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin, which results in irregular blood sugar .
In time Type 2 diabetics can develop heart disease, go blind or get nerve and kidney damage .
Some drugs on prescription can help the condition and the FDA has just approved Tradjenta to be marketed as a Type 2 diabetes treatment .
