In this podcast, we’re going to talk about how long it could take a diabetic to go blind. Diabetes-related retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness.
Other complications of diabetic retinopathy:
• Numb feet
• Chronic infections
• Kidney damage
• Heart damage
• The loss of cognitive function
High levels of blood sugar cause bleeding of the capillaries of the eye. Eventually, the retina dies because of a lack of nutrients and oxygen.
After 10 years of having chronically high blood sugar, you could start to develop complications of diabetes. Things get worse as time goes on. Something else to keep in mind is that this high blood sugar situation was probably hidden for many years before you were diagnosed. It can take a very long time of having insulin resistance before you develop diabetes.
Other complications of high blood sugar:
• Fatigue (especially after you eat lunch)
• Having to get up several times a night
• Constant thirst
• Urinating constantly
• Skin tags
• Poor circulation
What you could do:
• Bring your carbs way down (healthy keto)
• Do intermittent fasting
• Take benfotiamine (4 capsules per day)
