Diabetes effects 25.5 million American – AND celebs aren’t immune. Stars battling the disease include Mary Tyler Moore, Halle Berry, Sherri Shepherd, Nick Jonas, Patti Labelle, Randy Jackson and Delta Burke.
BUT a NYC chef is doing what the celebs can’t in an effort to illustrate the plight of diabetics less fortunate -- like those living on food stamps.
To make his point, until the end of February, award-winning chef Karl Wilder told The ENQUIRER’s website that he’s been subsisting on the U.S. government's daily individual average stipend of $4.50.
“I’’m doing this to show just how difficult it is to buy healthy, nutritious food that fits a diabetics requirements when inflicted with this dread and often debilitating disease,” he says.
