Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death (fifth leading

cause of death by disease); it diabetes affects over 18 million

Americans, that’s 5.9%! Every day approximately 2,200 people are

diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is also epidemic in New York

City. According to New York City Department of Health and Mental

Hygiene, nearly 1 in 12 New Yorkers have been diagnosed with

Diabetes – nearly 500,000 people. It is also estimated that

another 250,000 New Yorkers may have diabetes and do not even

know it.

When you have diabetes, the body either doesn’t make enough

insulin or cannot use its own insulin as well as it should to

digest sugars. Without insulin sugars build up in the blood.

If the sugar level gets too high, the cells of the body become

damaged. As cells become damaged, they cannot perform their

functions causing the complications of diabetes such as heart

disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity

amputations.

Finding a cure for diabetes is especially important to Katrina

because several members of her family have been diagnosed. By

riding and sponsoring a team in the Tour de Cure, Katrina is

supporting the American Diabetes Association’s effort of

providing information, advocacy, and research.
