Answer 3

Poor diet, excess weight and having a family history of the disease can be the causes. If managed improperly (eating a diet high in carbohydrates, for example), yes, diabetes can kill you. If a person is diagnosed with diabetes, they MUST maintain a low carb diet, drink plenty of water, follow some sort of exercise regimen and take medication. Hope this answers your question.

Answer 4

Diabeties is a killer , but indirectly, with a generous amount of other desases, poor diet usually causes it, you body has the inability to burn fat, so it stores it, most diabetics if not heavey will battle weight problems after being with it for a few years. there is 2 types, type ONE inject insuline, and type TWO manage with diet and pills, get a glucose metre and see what level you are, diabetics usually have a hard time regulating blood surgar % normal should be 5.5 its not uncomon to see blood sugar levels in the teens. Managed properly and you can have a fairly normal life, truth is the older you get the harder it is to manage. so please take care of your self see a doctor and talk to a dietition ASAP
