As diabetics, why do some people live a long and healthy life, while others die young?

In recent years, the incidence of diabetes in China has soared, not only for the elderly, but also for teenagers as long as they don't pay attention. However, what we notice is that some diabetics have the same life expectancy as normal people, while others will not live for several years.

Before discussing the length of life, we need to understand the meaning of diabetes-diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease with higher serum glucose than normal people and it is difficult to reduce spontaneously for a long time.

Diabetes is an incurable disease. Patients suffer from it for life and need comprehensive treatment to control and lower blood sugar for a long time. Therefore, it is not difficult to find that the impact of diabetes on people is only due to the increase of blood sugar, and if blood sugar can be well controlled, their survival time will not be much different from that of normal people.

Diabetes itself is not terrible, what is terrible is the various complications caused by it. According to WHO statistics, there are more than 100 complications of diabetes, among which serious long-term complications include cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure, retinopathy, neuropathy and microangiopathy.

Diabetic patients who do not control their blood sugar well are easy to get these complications, which seriously endanger people's health and have a bad impact on people's life.

Epidemiological studies show that the higher the blood sugar, the easier it is to get complications, and the lower or fluctuating blood sugar is also easy to cause complications. Keeping it in a moderate range will greatly reduce the possibility of complications. Therefore, even if you have diabetes, whether you can have a good attitude, pay attention to diet, cooperate with treatment and control blood sugar is the most important reason that affects your life span.
