And, you know, developing countries are not only competing with their health inequalities and the disease that they have to deal with, they're now taking on the Western lifestyle as well, which is further adding to that.
So I think it's something that we really need to have further studies on to get the answers that we need to try and prevent this rise to intervene earlier.
and to stop this global epidemic.
Dr. Anisha Patel.
In an earlier edition of the podcast, we covered the tiny country of Cape Verde becoming the talk of this Football World Cup, already achieving draws in its group games against former tournament winners Spain and Uruguay.
Cape Verde is an archipelago of nine islands in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of West Africa.
For a nation with a population of around half a million people, to be on the world stage is obviously a big achievement.
The country's Football Federation gets $12 million just for qualifying.
But as well as the football, what impact is the World Cup having on its economy?
The BBC's Rachel Wright travelled to Cape Verde to find out.
We're just minutes away from the beginning of their first World Cup game ever against one of the tournament favourites, Spain, and everyone is really excited.
I say that she feels very proud because Cape Verde already won.

The Cape Verde team is known as the Blue Sharks, and it's the second smallest country in this year's World Cup.
I'm with Paulino Diaz, who's one of the country's best-known economists and also a huge football fan.
Paulino, tell me, how does the country feel today?
And of course, Cape Verde's economy is largely dependent on tourism.
I went to see Professor Manuel Electro-Ribero, who studied tourism in Cape Verde.
What are the short-term benefits that you think qualifying for the World Cup finals will have?
You'd see a crowd of people just buying flags, buying T-shirts, you know, in the restaurants, bars, small shops.
