How Diabetes Affects Your Body 🧬🩺
Diabetes is more than just high blood sugar. It silently impacts your entire body over time. Let's understand how:
1. Diabetic Retinopathy 👁️ High sugar levels damage the tiny blood vessels in your eyes, leading to vision problems or even blindness if not managed early
2. Stroke 🧠⚡ Diabetes increases the risk of blood clots and high blood pressure, both major causes of stroke
3. Diabetic Cardiomyopathy 🫀 This is a heart muscle disorder where high sugar weakens the heart, increasing the risk of heart failure
4. Diabetic Neuropathy 🦶 Nerves, especially in the feet and hands, can get damaged, causing tingling, pain or numbness
5. Diabetic Foot 🧦 Due to poor sensation and blood flow, minor foot injuries may go unnoticed and turn into serious infections
6. Reduced Blood Flow 🩸 Narrowed blood vessels can restrict circulation, delaying healing and increasing the risk of infections
7. Diabetic Nephropathy - The kidneys, which filter waste, can become damaged, leading to chronic kidney disease
Diabetes management is not just about sugar. It is about protecting your entire system. Regular checkups, lifestyle changes and awareness are key to preventing complications 🌿💪
