Diabetes and high blood sugar draws fluid from the tissues and fries the little tiny nerves that control the diameter of capillary blood vessels. This causes all the things that slowly (or rapidly) kill non compliant diabetics. The retinas of the eyes damaged and leads to blindness, The circulation of the lower limbs damaged and leads to sores that won't heal and loss of feeling, the damage to the circulation of the heart muscle and obesity slowly or rapidly kills the heart, the tubules of the kidneys are fried leading to renal failure. I am a nurse and used to run a dialysis clinic.

People should try some variant of this diet (Atkins/Keto, etc.) and see how they feel after two weeks of honestly following it. Especially using only organic raw ingredients (meat and vegetables). You will be surprised how much lagging and mental fog you thought was getting old was just your diet of US government subsidized, RoundUp tainted grains poisoning you.
