Weight Management in Adulthood
Some adults with CdLS are overweight and may be obese. Close attention should be paid to ensuring a healthy, low calorie diet and physical activity is encouraged.
A very small number of adults with CdLS develop type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a common condition that causes high sugar (glucose) levels in the blood, resulting in excessive thirst and tiredness. Individuals who are overweight have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
