Lifestyle
A smokes about 20 cigarettes a day and has done for
the last 30 years.
A has abdominal obesity and does very little exercise. His
father has hypertension and his mother is obese, with Type
2 diabetes.
When A was diagnosed with diabetes, he was told to cut down
on the amount of processed foods he ate. Although he has reduced
his intake of take-aways and desserts, his diet is still fairly
high in other fatty foods and sauces. On a normal working
day, he has toast with butter and a glass of orange juice
for breakfast, red meat or chicken with sauce and potatoes
or rice at lunchtime from a cafeteria, and a similar meal
in the evening with his family, which his wife prepares. He
drinks about four cups of black coffee with sugar during the
day.
