HealthDay (11/7, Murez) reports, “Many people with type 2 diabetes also struggle with depression, and this combination can lead to premature death, researchers say.” In a study published in Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome: Clinical Research & Reviews, researchers found that “overall, participants with diabetes were 1.7 times more likely to die prematurely than those without diabetes, the data showed.” And “the risk of death more than quadrupled for participants with both diabetes and depression compared to those without diabetes or depression.”
