NIDDM (non-insulin dependent

NIDDM (non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus) or the Type 2 diabetes can be caused by regular high consumption of carbohydrates with high glycemic index that metabolize very quickly and cause a quick surge of glucose in the blood. Regular consumption of processed foods can cause this to happen. Stress and obesity adds to the problem. The solution lies in exercising regularly and in eating low glycemic foods (such as raw vegetables), and foods rich in fiber.
