Example 2 Of Substantial Limitation of Major Life Activities.

Example 2 Of Substantial Limitation of Major Life Activities. Claimant (CP) has a mild form of Type II, non- insulin-dependent diabetes. She does not need to take insulin or other medication, and her physician has placed no significant restrictions on her activities. Instead, her physician simply has advised CP to maintain a well balanced diet and to reduce her consumption of foods that are high in sugar or starch. Although diabetes often substantially limits an individual's major life activities, CP's diabetes does not substantially limit any of her major life activities. It has only a moderate effect on what she eats, and it does not restrict her in any other way.
