Why is Diabetes so Dangerous?

The answer is blood sugar, blood sugar and blood sugar.

Diabetes type 1 and 2 are two different illnesses, but they are both associated with a mismatch between blood sugar and insulin, resulting in high blood sugar.

The most dangerous thing about diabetes is cardiovascular disease (CVD) and here is the real problem: Blood sugar level is directly related to CVD, and within ten to fifteen years all diabetics have some degree of heart or vessel disease, and this is the most common cause of disability or death.

Have you checked your blood sugar lately? Even within normal ranges and into pre-diabetes or Insulin Resistance, the statistics are very clear:

The risk for CVD increases linearly with long term blood sugar levels. So what about cholesterol ?

That is a complicated story, but the short of it is that cholesterol is made of sugar molecules. So when we take our cholesterol medication and think we are covered, we are missing the point. Statistics confirm that, too. So does clinical practice: Diabetes type 1 improves, diabetes type 2 reverses , and cholesterol goes down when we remove refined sugar from our nutrition.
