Dr Dog 2 k. We're talking about time to diabetes asking if you have the condition are you trying to change your lifestyle maybe to reverse type 2 some people saying that is possible but also we have these figures a come out showing the number of under forty's with the condition has increased by a 3rd in 20 years how do you get the message home to people about lifestyle fighting obesity that whole area your thoughts on that 08073 you want to 1000 couple of e-mails here Tony in Reigate I like your style Tony he says perhaps we should have a world carb free day as opposed to world carfree day and close all the takeaways in London seriously if this was done every Friday and Saturday it would really help towards the fight against diabetes. It's not about choice some self responsibility we reach the point we have to shut down all of the takeaways to stop people eating bad food other know and this one from Nicholas says I've cut out bread from my diet and feel so much better for it shop bought sandwiches at lunch time are the worst thing you can have the calorie content as I was a lost a stone and have kept it off for 15 months now I know it's hard for people to exercise when they feel tired but going outside for a walk will actually make you feel better Many areas have Couch to 5 k. Courses. Which is a great thing to get people off the sofa and exercising in a group nickel or thank you for your e-mails who are talking about type 2 diabetes are also asking about world carfree day on Sunday will you be participating is this the best way to get the message out there to people to you know get out there Motors drawn improve air quality in London we're talking about job interviews as well let's take a cool Richards in Blackheath Hello Richard Oh hi Duncan Yes I've about type 2 diabetes Yeah I recovered from type 2 diabetes thankfully and there's a growing movement of people doing exactly the same I might add to mention a website called diabetes dot co dot u.k. Run by general practitioners Well you just said 400 pounds I have done that. Just out of interest. Of interest and I am just like every other person but I guess when you type 2 diabetes Yeah let me also. Play with it so so when we you don't like no used. Well I mean I reckon I'll be only so they are recruited back in 9099 when it was not so possible I went on to sort of Paleo diet and ever since I lost a lot of whites and my I was in a diabetic clinic canned is quite clear the doctor the young doctor in front of me didn't really know anything about nutrition and I had a bit of a crash course and you know if I hadn't done that I'd have now have a 20 a history of type 2 diabetes and. Believe me you know I work with everyday people is limbs eyesight and Arenal function it's not a good thing to have but there is a big movement now if you look at Tom Watson the deputy of a part of the Labor Party has lost 7 stone and reverses type 2 diabetes by doing what's on that website there are 400000 people out there who have done nots and this an incredible before and after photos and you know then that the hell wants degeneracy disease especially when you know you're on the question of I'm a ways out which is how do you how do you think when you talk about your to use the word Geneve you give an example of people who manage to also reverse that type 2 diabetes but how do we get the message through to people about not getting type 2 in the 1st place by changing a lifestyle and diet do you think it's possible to really hammer home a message I think is a really difficult situation when advertising is just so and marketing is so prominent every time you turn the t.v. Aylmer food on it's on the food at the 1st learn usually charge it in about year but if I watch stated I'm hungry in 10 minutes it makes you hungry Yeah you know it's like a problem response I think what will happen is when people get into a crisis some people know everybody some people up for an answer and you know and there are as I say there are answers out there run by general practitioners I have no in you know he's a he's a professional hero is saying. You know there are solutions and. That's a load of us I don't know about you but I'm can't base narrow and unbelievable changes to improving my health I mean certainly there are people who are adopting more of a plant based diet though not me because I made my own sausages but that's a story for another night listen Richard I got to move on thank you that's Richard in Blackheath but anything to do this type 2 conversation we're having here on drives imo 807312000 is the number 10 minutes past 6 let's turn our attention to what's been happening in the Supremes cause we've been talking about over the last few days here on b.b.c. Radio London keeping you fully updated Well we're going to have to wait until next week to find out the Supremes Court's ruling on whether Boris Johnson acted illegally when he shut down Parliament today the story took a new twist as a conservative prime minister from the past so John Major took on the current Tory prime minister in court well kind of Mr Major's lawyer Lord spoke for him chances in a skeptical inference to be drawn is that true aggression is from not exercising its right to disagree with the government and that straight as it sees fit but the lawyer representing the government Lord Keen said the courts should stay out of it the applicants and the petitioners aren't slicing the courts into the territory and then to what is essentially a minefield as always we need someone to walk us through this and explain what's going on in layman's terms or in simple terms so our political correspondent Suzanne I'm in dancers here thankfully hello right what's been going on today yet so this is the last the 3 days at the Supreme Court the reason is at the Supreme Court is that there were 2 rulings in lower court say we had the high court ruling where the government actually won that one the high court said that it couldn't make a judgement on this because it was a political issue then you had the Court of Session event in Edinburgh where the government lost and that court found that the government had paid on law by parading separating it means suspending parliament and. So as a result both of those cases ends up in the Supreme Court which is the highest court in the land and it has to decide make the ultimate decision as to ever know it was lawful or not for the for the government to suspend parliament so we've had several days of interesting and quite detailed analysis from both sides about what's going on today as you say that John Major His lawyer was representing him he's the former Conservative prime minister taking on a current Conservative prime minister so really quite dramatic stuff as the kind of thing that you know you might see in a t.v. Legal drama or something you know actually see it in the real it is quite astonishing but yet say Lord Garnier who you just heard there as well as those comments that you just made that he was also talking about the issue of purgation and the government previously said that you know it's basically the same as dissolving parliament so you parliament gets dissolved for example when you're going to have a general election and say they are saying you know what's the difference but he was laying out the differences basically saying that when you dissolve parliament you're bringing the executives say the government's in contact with the electorate because the voters then get a chance to say who the government will be but in probations I suspension what you're doing is you're bringing the executive which is the government further away from the electorate so he was making that arguments in terms of saying why this is something that was bad and he was saying if the court doesn't take action on miss that in future any government could just disband the army or they have no confidence by suspending parliament say making those arguments but then you know on the other side you've got the government basically saying you heard it there this is forbidden territory it's a minefield that the court shouldn't be dragged into politics those are the arguments that have been going around Ok I mean terms of out calm and what is going to get a solution sometime next week yes I correct Ok in terms of outcome though if the if the Supreme Court rules against the government Yeah Does it legally have to effect . Open Parliament welcomes this again is the whole minefields say it could rule in the government's favor but if it rules against the government we've got various options being put forward so the lawyer who was involved in the Scottish case in Edinburgh which where they they won was saying he wants a question order which is affected effectively would mean parliament could just return and peace could just go back into parliament would be as though it never happened but the government put forward its own suggestions that if the ruling goes against what it would want and something called the declaration of unlawfulness that would basically give the prime minister the opportunity to then decide what happens now the other side not particularly keen on that's a Gina Miller the campaign he's also involved in this her legal representative will panic is saying fine you know you could go for this idea of a declaration of unlawfulness but it shouldn't be the prime minister who decides because he'll have broken the law so it should be the speaker of the commons and the Lords that the sides and so that way the it would give the court the opportunity to deal with the legal side of things but then kick the ball into Parliament for them to deal with the politics of it all say but you know I will see what have Ok and if the Supreme Court of the Among other want to go go down too much detail but rules in favor of the government well the government just go well that we told you did nothing wrong and I mean parliament remains closed and that's exactly what would happen but then there's a whole question about could the prime minister Perogue suspend again and we're not sure as to ever not that's something that they could give a go another time Ok and we know it's early next week is there any any money being placed on Monday Tuesday when my daughter couldn't tell you know early Roman weren't sure if it was today or tomorrow right now we know it's next week or early next week then we've got saying no doubt we will bring you that coverage here on b.b.c.

You know yoga going on Tower Bridge I'm really interested if you're you send me an anonymous e-mail but if you love to come on the right I love to explore that because the language is is quite robust say clearly there's some there some strong views there and i'm not get where you're coming from when you talk about if you're in a Will childlike mobility or your infer more than ever perhaps you do feel discriminated against you give me a call this one from David about Car Free Day on Sunday he says world carfree day maybe in London but not in most of the world there's anyone in the u.k. Work on Sunday yes the privileged few preventing working people from making ends meet I mean we had some of this earlier in the show is that how people are viewing world carfree day on Sunday I mean if we take a thread that we have poor air quality in London right and I feel it I can tell you not to walk down the street after half an hour my lungs feel heavy and I spoken to people over the years have a similar experience we work on the basis that we want to improve the air quality in London surely world carfree day on Sundays a good way of doing that but then how do you counter the criticism the opposition possibly the concern which is why on the 2nd people work on a Sunday and it's going to be a bit of a pain in the proverbial if you can move around certain parts of London in the way that Eastern. 731-2000 World carfree there on Sunday does it get your support Keith and Walford says you could stop cars in London for a year and still measure pollution because it will blow in to the city from the n 25 Yeah I think that's a fair point I mean you know we do have the m 25 over in the 1986 does that does affect our city or if so what what is the alternative you know I'm going to put forward this counterpoint a lot of people seem quite anti world carfree day on Sunday what is the alternative How do you improve air quality in London if you don't like the idea of saying to people for one Sunday every year get out your car or you can drive your cars on this particular part of London how do you improve air quality How do you get the message out there the best suggestion so far came from Dave you said make public transport free. A warm or here this is Andy of Croydon who says what worries me about this disruption in London is that it's open house weekend and a lot of people have been working really hard to prepare for as they do every year I do hope visitors will not be put off going to see all the stunning places on the one weekend in the year they're open for viewing please ask everybody to still support Open House Duncan says and here across the hall we can do better than that it we've we've got open house covered and you'll hear more about open house inside the next 20 minutes because we are London's radio station circles who talk about open house right the text is a one triple 3 star Joe message with the word London you can e-mail Eddie don't nest of b.b.c. Doco dot u.k. Or colas own 807312000 talking type 2 diabetes your 1st job interviews and also world carfree day on Sunday are you supporting at. All those t. Go to the b. G.'s in work I'll tell you you ways of communication are constantly introduced to us making our lives easier but just how much does it affect how well we communicate face to face we're talking words just in case you haven't worked it out I'm asking because a new study released by the charity guide dogs highlights how our 1st paced fast paced digitally dependence a society is impacting our language and how this could have serious implications for all of us but especially those with visual impairments this flings in quite nicely with some we're talking earlier job interviews and skills in job interviews with the age of Whatsapp and Messenger apps and abbreviations lie lol l o l what it sounds a lot of love or laugh out loud or never never can tell the difference between the 2 things laugh out loud say someone who's younger or b r b other even or b r P's was beyond. Be right back sounds like a train company b. RB and the way all of these things these abbreviations question is are we forgotten how to actually speak properly Stephen Fry told the B.B.C.'s what makes us human podcast why he thinks language is so important. My then grid as the sum of my discourses as linguistic strata that betray my history as geology or archaeology betrays History is my a language and it is a piece of who I am baps even the defining piece for me it is a cause of some upset that more anger phones English speakers don't enjoy language music is enjoyable it seems so a dance and other athletic forms of movement people seem able to find sensual and since she was pleasure in almost anything but words these days you don't have to be taught any part of language or buy any equipment to use it just let the words fly from your lips and your pen give them rhythm and depth and height and sit in us give them filth and form a noble stupidity words are free and all words light and frothy Firman sculpted as they may be bare the history of their passage from lip to lip over thousands of years how they feel to us now tells us whole stories of our ancestors it is the language that makes me you and every single one of us humans Wow I feel quite excited after listening to that let's talk to Countdown star language expert Susie dent telling Susie good evening Well I think he thinking how we lost the ability to speak correctly all of these abbreviations in text chatting affecting our ability to use words properly what we think yeah being correct in that is a tricky one is that. They're not actually portable that's recording you know we are democratic. Also. And yet the most about who or what even the way we can think the Internet has been proven in part to be expanding those rather than the missing it in many ways but it. Actually never cream cooks without saying goes we want to be not be. You know we have proceeded. Is available to take such as So it's definitely making. Less expensive I think unless quick as a result which is what we're focusing on stay if you know bring back positive scription because Quest such the trophic up throughout the it is close to be this going to ever way there is so savor you said on on on thinking that maybe we should do more to try and hold onto the the the words that perhaps don't get you so much that I was talking about in the office early and someone said look this is this is evolution you're going to get with the times this is what happens you know the way we talk now in 2019 is very different from the way we told the 969 all people told you know eating 69 so this next is evolution we will roll with it I mean we yeah definitely Now we do have to roll with it and I would be the violence post is in my case because that is a useful the moniker that hardly expect very happy to read because what I know may please if you gave saying English is both You've got to go with it. You know and that's how it stays alive so I would never ever speak against that I think want to thank de is I'm actually really come to the fore by working with God So since I have a time on the closet description campaign because I haven't really start to realize how cause a description of so important to those we thought was music and package that hopefully reliance on language. And descriptive language key to bring an experience to life to other people just take for granted if this thing is. So for me I'll just stop to think well actually yes I've always tried to bring peace about was back from the past and to revise them today and actually just just because that's got her them to say let's not forget abt you find the direction we're going if but let's not forget that actually some people with quiet a different kind of language and that will be in much trust Susie I appreciate your time thank John got a few words here from Dave Keynes who is engagement officer at the charity guide dogs because I was reading all this stuff earlier like yourself who didn't even occur to. That kind of impact all changing language in the way we communicate my have Dave Good evening thank you for joining us aloe Duncan how you do it I'm very well so help me out here how does this affect all our changes in the way we communicate how does it affect people who might have slight loss of who all or possibly who are visually impaired. Could question fill. A line which we realize is every thought we're paying we're certainly not at the you know sort of group but where it does impact on us our social group certainly in terms of social media is 'd MIT's that don't really tell you a lot you'll get a description also of the amount of the Emmott you get you're lucky but it's also the kind of the earth ducted language in text in kind of sentences conveyed in you know 3 or 4 letters l o l r o f l rolling on laughing and it's kind of exclusivity that that you know unless you're in with all of that you know it can really did Minish a person's experience and that ability to be able to communicate we love hurts when we're colored and inform our worlds are informed by the p.t.s. Language and how everyday situations simple situations can be brought to light by the excellence of the lovely language and words so in terms of how we communicate in 29 t. We need to be doing it in a better way to to also remember and ensure that someone who maybe has side lost always visually impaired can can can actually understand what we're trying to articulate So how do we do that better is it is simpler saying don't use them oh geez what would you like to see done you know I'd like people to call you know of course people should be using people should be using these these sudden communicate . Techniques but also you know remember that there's a language you know that should be along with to you know give a sentence use you know don't. Want to stray to use a sentence and if you're communicating with somebody who is visually impaired people fix Don't be afraid to use language you're never never policial language to the extent that you are so fearful of what you say in the old the old still are your Duncan as if you're saying to attention in person or did you see that film. Yeah oh I said the seeing would always feel terrible No not at all be expansive and explore language and play with language and try and describe what language is and the reason why we're kind of talking about this as well that is to do with my campaign we're running which in my service which. People blind people with of sighted guide to get them out and about 2 to 3 hours a week I'm describing what's going on around us sounds like a remarkable initiative listen I got to get the news headlines on day but I want you to plug this very quickly you have a web address or somewhere that people can go to find out more about the campaign please if you're interested visit dogs dot org dot you can check it out and sign a line good good talking to you Dave have a good evening as Dave cans and gauge an officer of the charity guide dogs arrive on the 3rd this correctly and I shouldn't use this term.

And b.b.c. Sounds nice isn't London this is b.b.c. Radio London Duncan box. Drive time on b.b.c. Radio London on Duncan the time is 637 Good to have you along I'm here through and saw a the c evening after 7 we like to talk it's a place where early evening London comes the talk of the 7 and a lot more of your calls please get a few to go to between now and then after 7 but if you just put the radio on some of the things we're chewing over Type 2 diabetes if you have that condition let's talk about what you're doing with your condition you taking the drugs not only that the dismissive way. Because people find it hard to change their lifestyle change their diet and do more exercise but how do you cope with type 2 diabetes have you tried to reverse your condition as some people have told us they managed to do in the last couple of hours on the show and how do you get the message out there having a sedentary lifestyle eating a load of junk potentially put you more risk regarding type 2 just so you know we're talking about this because the new figures show the number of under forty's with the condition has increased by a 3rd in 20 years so how do you fight the increasing numbers of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes also asking you about your 1st ever job interview there was something that took place earlier today a combination of the Prince's Trust in association with the job center to help well today's youngsters get hired basically give them the skills to get a job I think we all remember our 1st job interview so tell me what happened to yours and I want your job interview stories we're also trying to work out if you support a world carfree Day this coming Sunday. Or whether or not you think it'll go far enough maybe you think it's all well and good closing some roads in or around the city of London and stuff but actually one of the whole of the capital yo girl entire bridge listening Sunday morning do you support world carfree day someone like all cab driver really is just going Oh this gets in the way of people trying to go about their business all of that going on and I want to talk about words in vocab as well I think I'll start off by asking you your pet hates when we talk about certain words or vocab and what is your favorite word all of that going 108-073-1200 extension 0 there's a number Now earlier Annie of Croydon was talking about world carfree day on Sunday going I hope this doesn't impact on the open house weekend and I sit and listen well London's radio station we have this covered we'll fly the flag it's going to be a glorious weekend weatherwise you can stroll around some of those London buildings you always wondered about a 100 such places of interest opening the doors for Open House weekend this coming weekend and there are places to visit in every Barra and the Open House lawn trust in 1940 and. An up on you there and can you hear me. Or give it a few more seconds and then we'll kick something we don't know we have the connection we're trying our own your back she's been at the launch event for Open House weekend 20199 Elms and I can tell you I want to give too much away but she's at quite a special location so we're trying to back in a few moments time any luck. Or let me just remind you of some of the things we're going to talk about after 7 are mentioned the vocab stuff because we're talking earlier about how how we communicate with each other is changing because now we have tech speak we have abbreviations we have a mode G.'s people who shorthand things in order to maybe get their message heard so when we talk about vocab as well the seedings I've got this figure here 68 percent of Britons thing they're vocab has been affected by modern communication methods indicating that you know stuff like l o l o m g. Most to blame and people are not communicating in the way they used to communicate because well there are easier ways and simpler ways of communicating so they want to talk about vocab and there's a couple of things I just want a lot in your direction do you think we are losing our grip on vocabulary do you think we're not communicating in the way that we used to now Oracle are 2 ways of looking at this I reckon you either just goes ridiculous people now communicating with little or movies on their smartphone instead of saying I'm not having a great day you get some yellow face with like you know better blogging going on some tears going on or the saying I love you. What you say on the radio I love you what you get if you get in the Moji will like that color yellow face with a little heart thing in the kissing going on that's I love you isn't it is not the motif I love you well does that mean I fancy you I have no idea because I try not to use them though I am a father of a teenage daughter and I have to accept that is how the youth that is how the kids sometimes communicate well more often lots how they communicate and I straddle this because I try and find myself in a position well I try not sound like some crusty old get where I'm just going use words teenage daughter write me a proper text with the words or try not to say that even though that's my gut instinct to say that though she will send me stuff and I will reply with a Modis because that's how that's how she communicates So let's talk about vocab and how we're communicating our modern methods of communication tech speak in the most G.'s and stuff a good or bad thing tell me your pet hates and you think people have forgotten how to communicate properly all of that going on on top of everything else only 87312000 is our number you can text they want triple 3.

Radio under more from me just before 7. This is the one if you don't think more prison space is a good idea you don't think the stop and such is a good idea what do you think is a good idea Vanessa felt it was a business and its end of the world and he thread great is definitely one of those kind of things for you but just take it back to 75 all interest rates of national b.b.c. Radio London breakfast with n.s.f. L. That's what it is all be true I thought why would anyone do something so deeply controversial like a mornings from 7. 0 as quarter of a 7 1st day evening b.b.c. Radio alarm the a launch event taking place in. The open house weekend 29 t. And our reporter Anna O'Neill is there on a good evening hello Don can I say location that is so secure even the signal couldn't get in and out quite Ok though if you talk about the power you know now I was thinking about this because I know where yeah. If you follow me on Twitter personally people might know way you are on there they follow you where they might no way you are member the channel full program Treasure Hunt Yes she wanted to write running around and. Jumping out of helicopters what I was. And how we do this really on putting you on the spot give give us a clue as to where you are put it this way I'm not some Bushie soil not really I needed my passport to get here that's a good clue but you haven't travelled very far no I haven't had any trouble tonight . Everybody a clue and if you don't know what I'm talking about I'm talking of course about the new u.s. Embassy saying yeah that's where I am right and that's why it's so secure around here but it's also a really pleasant place to be at the moment there's hardly anybody here in the courtyard where I'm standing but I can say there's a lot of the surrounds there says not the greenery there's lots of trees but the building itself of course is. Still big salable of like they're below I Big several you know they look like an actor you can see a picture of it on Twitter Ok Listen. I'm not being passed the new u.s. Embassies so I don't have you to describe what I do most nights past the old u.s. Embassy in Grosvenor Square which people may know is being slowly dismantled and people may recall the Donald Trump quite like the old one because he's in fat but when he was told about the new one in. Terms of real estate in the in the best position I mean just give us a bit more detail about the new u.s. Embassy will you talk about about the sales but I mean this is it in a good school is it looking good well look don't trump said that this was a lousy location and didn't even come to visit it when he came on the day to day but you missed a bit of a trick this is an amazing location actually pull it out of one of those every day London which. That's been built up I'm a new and it's changing in bolding it's developing all around this building you can see the toll buildings going up you could see the planes going to have problems if you pull it really feels like it's possible to probably works maybe a little bit about why location the chosen quite a bit about the fact that he's actually within a certain distance from Westminster is not far away a whole one of the coast lies from the top of the so they can say the Palace of Westminster it's really really close even though it's across the river but it's got it's been chosen specifically for certain aspects of course I'm about a security James Timberlake is the architect job a little bit about it. Absolutely I mean you know the whole notion of how do you represent openness and transparency in a building that needs to be secure making for a good working environment and also you know keep energy costs low and performance of the building quite high so these exteriors sunshades really help deflect the light but they also give form to the building give a very different and impressive exterior appearance but if you've been here through the seasons and throughout the day they also change light because of the way they reflect you know the sunlight off the building so some days it looks silver and cool and Ice Cube like and other days it's quite golden and warm and welcoming I'm just thinking out if you're an architect something that combi many sex on the planet who get to design embassies I mean that must be quite a plum gig I know and I was talking to him and that said the other architected to realise that they say think about every single aspect they think about the way sounds the way the weight smells what material. We'll to use whether it will stand the test of time I mean hearing about that because he gave a little talk to some of the people invited on this tour on the opening night and just talked about how all those aspects are could be thought about but they still there will be something long before long they're really gone and still has to be you know to have to look good in the London landscape I mean even to think. It went on to the floor which is where people will come and get that the. What they when they get there the that and the windows are huge but they're covered in these little dots and I think a lot of people did you do it like you know the Stars and Stripes tossed back no band ever know about Actually it's no it's because he said this is a highway and birds fly Lou here I'm boy with the course famous they can see just how many crash into it so this is a way of making the environment nor friendly all the wildlife for London what they don't present to the guts and to God learn some things about all of I've learned something and before we we find out a little bit more about the open house weekend you see something so interesting a few moments ago about the architect you would talking to who we heard from you were talking to other all contacts and this idea is not just about how a building looks less I misheard uses about how it's smiles. The new u.s. Embassy and no I don't know how badly I want to give it a prophecy but I want you to tell people this thing. Now if I'm be public I don't want to call that a Muslim the moment it smells like food because there's an event going on and we were served I let you know there was the wine and juices and things but with some little bullies you know there's motion punk a stream of them had. Passed a on some of them had smoked salmon some of them had coffee pot every talks but they smelt of that that's what I could smell but not many but I was on the try ordering all nurtured and I don't know as someone suggested no burger chip leader. So far part of the not Ok let's talk about the open house where you are and what have you discovered. $800.00 buildings to come in and. You have to actually go into a ballot to get a chance to do it all the building was able to be viewed everything they brains from things like big grand buildings like they spoken to. Them so interesting that they wanted to open up the show to the wider public and I've been to the director of Open House. So he told me a little bit more about what people can expect this weekend I think it's a really popular aspect of open house people visiting to see contemporary modern architecture used in residential settings I mean sometimes we actually you know we have to find a fine tooth comb going through all the applications because in the past we've had people trying to sell their houses with 3 open days during open house but you know in essence. A friendly endevor and I love it it's this soft power in action you know it's basically saying that London is yours for for this weekend and you can pretty much go anywhere and that feels feel special going check it out this weekend open house weekend 209800 places of interest opening the doors right across the capital and only all there at the new u.s. Embassy in 9 Elms the launch event or suspect she's off now to get a glass of fees It's 653 let's return saw our conversation about type 2 diabetes we've been talking about on drive time today it's because a number of under forty's with the condition has rocketed by a 3rd in 20 years as a result of the obesity crisis a study has shown that younger adults now make up 12 and a half percent of cases compared to 9 and a half percent back in the year 2000. New Trish an editor for Healthy Food Guide Magazine Amanda cell who told me obesity rates are only increase their rates fade beast. Pretty bad in this country and that sort of gaining traction is not in any rate so it stands to reason that if people are falling into the category younger and their lifespan than they are going to be developing type to type 2 diabetes. Than we used to see say No sadly I'm not surprised that's how small chance about all this is a volunteer a diabetes u.k. He's with us this evening on b.b.c. Radio London Malcolm Good evening Duncan thank you for your time you have time to yourself Thank you so how long have you had a full of that type 2 diabetes but I was kind of unlucky cause it runs in my family. My mother's side or. All our family kind of had died type 2 diabetes but I have to say I didn't develop it until I was about 4738 right so our bodies are not so on time yeah yeah that's interesting is now because I mean. To read a tree but doesn't necessarily I mean I don't know the answer to this you my not off to the doesn't necessarily follow that if you're your mom or your grandparents how do you automatically get a or is it a bit of a bit of luck of the draw suggest there's a better luck of the draw because it can skip a generation but my sister and I both had have type 2 diabetes. But I am never been overweight as such. 14 So yeah I've dropped a couple of stone since then but 14 stone for my height was fine at the time but I've always had. A physical job so I've always been able to keep trim. So you could say my destiny was to have type 2 diabetes Ok You mentioned that you discovered you how to in your mid to late forty's. What was it was that just a routine checkup with the g.p.l. Did you have some of the symptoms of the often read about you know being the going to the loo a lot what was happened well I was with the surgery and I was feeling on well take a cut us a long story short I display this the symptoms that I now know all the symptoms that time I didn't so I went to the go to her and he was stuffing about one thing and another in the end I got fed up and changed surgeries right the 1st thing the surgery did when I walked in the door was do a diabetic check my reading was so high they sent me straight to the hospital for treatment. So it doesn't it always pays to take notice so what they're advertising about diabetes and the symptoms which is color like being tired or your own I will agree and you're always drinking your drink anything even though you know you've only just drunk a pint and a half of worser and 5 minutes ago you still want to drink and the other one is if your wounds tend to take a longer to heal Yeah that's wrong that people tend overlook Oh I did that a couple weeks ago it'll be all right soon you know but it was Ok it will take longer to heal this really interesting stuff you just said thank you for that I mean one of the reasons we're talking about this on b.b.c. Radio London the seedings we have these new figures out that show the number of under forty's with the condition has increased by a 3rd in 20 years they say as a result of the obesity crisis now another lost it doesn't apply to you because it sounds like it's hereditary in your particular case and bring this evening you know how do you get the message out that from from a awaits him fitness point of view that you know if you are eating the wrong stuff you're not getting enough exercise that potentially you are accountable for type 2 I mean it's seems to me the messages are out there in a way that they never been before when talking about it on the radio yet the figures suggest that people carry on perhaps living in an all healthy way or you don't know the reasons that his people won't happen to me attitude right but the point of the matter is if you start to put weight on you put it on around your middle Yeah. That's where your pancreas is and if you start to pile pressure by putting around your middle then you're going to restrict your pancreas to working levels of good insulin coming out so you need to monitor your white you need to drop you right now our particular group because of Stoke on Trent our area is the highest number for diabetics inst in Britain outbursts of the highest number of diabetics for amputation in Britain. We're so really our group I have to say it even though we do all the surgeries we do all the supermarkets we do we do the stunts we do health. We do everything possible to make people aware that probably weight can be dangerous or are going to leave them Malcolm thank you for your time is really interesting to hear what you're experiences being and also your thoughts as well that's Malcolm Barber who's a volunteer at diabetes u.k.
