For diabetes in particular, we know there's a relationship between lack of glucose regulation and complications like blindness and kidney failure. So if you were diabetic and you knew that you could get your glucose in a tight, normal range just by adjusting your lifestyle, wouldn't that be great?

One of the most common problems which people face in their daily life is the lack of proper glucose regulation. Glucose is a kind of sugar which is found in the blood and it is the most important energy source of the body. If you are a diabetic, you might be suffering from high blood glucose level. ... When this happens, the pancreas does not produce enough insulin to control your blood glucose level. This leads to the accumulation of glucose in the blood and the body starts to experience complications like high blood pressure, kidney damage, heart attacks and blindness. The complications are triggered by high blood glucose level and if the level is controlled, it would not happen.
