Why Are Diabetics More Prone To Heart Disease And Myocardial Infarction?
When diabetes is uncontrolled, there’s too much sugar in the blood. These excess sugar molecules attach themselves to the nearest tissues, particularly cellular DNA and proteins, and hang on tight. With all these extra sugar molecules hanging around, the body’s cells don’t work quite right. This means that diabetics heart muscles don’t function properly, their blood pressure is almost always high for a number or reasons, they frequently have high cholesterol, etc. The body just has a hard time controlling itself properly when there’s sugar stuck to everything.
Type 2 diabetics, or adult-onset diabetes, is almost always associated with a long life history of poor diet and obesity, and sedentary lifestyle. Those three on their own put people at high risk for heart complications.
These chronic problems cause all kinds of diabetes related illnesses, including high blood pressure, heart failure, myocardial infarction, kidney failure, and more. Many of these problems can be prevented if the patient’s glucose levels and blood pressure are kept under strict control with good medicines and daily monitoring. It takes a lot of work, but it can be done.
the bodies of diabetics are prone to illnesses because they have low-resistance to such diseases. for short, their bodies are weak and their blood has excess sugar that’s why platelets can’t function well.
i actually dunno either. i heard that question answered before, but i forgot the correct response. sorry. X)
diabetics have low imune systems and are prone to infections and the strain on the heart to dealing with extremities of a high or low sugar count can cause heart faliure
Hope this helped
