Among those that suffer from Type 2 diabetes almost 40% have high blood pressure, which is another condition that is believed to be
exacerbated by excess weight. Being overweight might also lead to a
condition known as insulin resistance in which the body no longer
responds to the insulin that is needed to assist the body in using
sugar and glucose as fuel on a cellular level.
There are some things you can do to help yourself out if you have
been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes or labeled at risk for this
devastating condition. First of all, take off the pounds. I know this
is much easier said than done. Dieting is never easy and rarely fun
for the average person. However, if you do not begin to take drastic
steps toward procuring the best possible health for yourself you may
not be able to enjoy the quality of life you had planned for your
golden years. Let your condition be your motivation and make plans to
enjoy watching your grandchildren and great grandchildren graduate
college.
