Did Abraham Lincoln suffer from type 2 diabetes?

Answer 1

Having read a ton of material on Lincoln I seriously doubt it. No account lingers over frequent trips to the loo and his energy level was always noted as high in spite of fits of depression. That said Lincoln has an odd connection to diabetes, check out this link..

"""The World’s Largest Painting of Abraham Lincoln will stand tall this summer (at least on its side). Local artist, Dillon, will fabricate and produce the World’s Largest Painting of Abraham Lincoln to be displayed for a limited time beginning this summer. The painting will be sold directly to the public to raise money for The American Diabetes Association. Reserves to own a piece of this historic painting will be made on a first-come, first-served basis.""

Here is site that cites Lincoln's Health and it is well written and accurate in my humble opinion...

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

A photograph taken November 15, 1863 by Alexander Gardner shows Lincoln sitting with legs crossed. The image of the left foot -- the one nearest the camera -- is blurry, however. Lincoln noticed this and wondered why. Newspaperman Noah Brooks suggested it was because throbbing of the arteries may have imparted a slight motion to the foot. To test this idea, Lincoln crossed his legs, watched his foot, ... and saw that it moved. "That's it! That's it! Now that's very curious, isn't it?" he exclaimed [16j]. This incident is cited as evidence that Lincoln had aortic regurgitation [29] [30].
Comment: Aortic regurgitation is caused by a leaky heart valve. When severe, large swings in blood pressure occur with every heartbeat, causing structures in the body to pulsate. Diagnosing aortic regurgitation from photographic blurriness is a clever idea, but, in this case, wrong. First, Lincoln's foot may simply have been out of focus. Second, such foot movement is normal: Dr. Zebra's foot moves in a similar way, and he does not have aortic regurgitation or Marfan syndrome. Third, Lincoln was incubating smallpox when the photograph was taken, so possibly he was vasodilated for that reason and more prone to foot movement.
