A short spoken segment from a YouTube video by Dr. Ron Najafi highlighting a rise in type 2 diabetes among children and adolescents (noted for ages 10–14 and 15–19). The speaker argues that this shift (occurring over the last 20 years) indicates an exposure-driven problem rather than primarily diet, exercise, or behavior, framing children as "canaries in the coal mine" for broader environmental or exposure-related health threats.
