Understanding Type 2 Diabetes – The Silent Killer
Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of this disease, is your body’s way of saying it’s struggling to manage blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is the fuel that keeps you going, but in excess, it can be harmful. It is the leading cause of heart disease, heart attacks, stroke, amputations, blindness, and dialysis from renal failure. Insulin, a hormone, helps usher glucose into your cells for energy. In Type 2 diabetes, the body becomes resistant to insulin (insulin resistance), it is NOT a pancreas issue (type 1 diabetes). Symptoms of Type 2 diabetes include increased thirst and appetite, unintended weight gain, fatigue, frequent urination, slow-healing wounds, high cholesterol, fatty liver, blurred vision, neuropathy, and cognitive decline. The exact causes of Type 2 diabetes are multifaceted, which functional medicine uncovers and develops a solution to.
