75% of the early deaths in diabetics are related to coronary artery disease. The mechanisms of arterial disease in diabetic patients appear to be multiple but increased levels of glucose and fructose play havoc with blood vessel walls. A cascading series of adverse events follows the onset of high blood sugar and can only be controlled by reduction of free sugar in the diet and comprehensive diet revision associated with increased exercise. Pathogenic mechanisms include the accumulation of glucose, fructose and sorbitol in tissues and the modification of proteins by glycation. A great more can be done to limit or prevent the cardiovascular complications of diabetes. Both MDs and patients tend to be complacent in the early stages of the disease and the penalty for neglect is disaster. In a Canadian study, Ross et al found that only 30 % of diabetes with hypertension received treatment for the high blood pressure; only 3% with serum cholesterol levels above 6.2 were on a diet or received lipid lowering drugs. They observed that patient compliance with treatment was poor - 90% of diabetics failed to use their medications as prescribed; 70% failed to follow diet guidelines and 50 % with established heart disease dropped out of rehabilitation programs after a year. Arterial pathogens in the food supply
Clearly, heroic efforts are more that justified to change life-style determinants of the disease early on so that the terrible consequences of neglected diabetes are avoided. Adverse Consequences of Diabetes
Elevated Blood Fats Some of the vascular disease can be explained as atherosclerosis and attributed to abnormalities in blood fats. A high sugar and fat in the diet of diabetics is a lethal combination. More than 60 % of non-insulin dependent diabetes have elevated blood fat levels. We offer two sources for books.
