dc.description.abstract<p>Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is marked by high levels of glucose in the blood, caused by a reduced capacity or inability to produce insulin – a hormone generated in the pancreas that controls blood glucose levels (WHO 1999). It is the most common form of diabetes and is well recognized as a disease of aging that occurs mostly in people aged forty and over (Public Health Agency of Canada [PHAC] 2011). The disease often goes undetected for years, and early symptoms commonly include increased tiredness, thirst, urination, hunger, and weight gain.</p>en
