Summary:

The world is facing a diabetes epidemic—with the disease linked to both genetic and lifestyle causes. India is set to become the diabetes capital of the world—with numbers set to double in a generation—while in Africa, efforts are still being made to deliver insulin some 90 years after it was discovered. We visit both India and Kenya to look at the problems and the solutions being offered.
