Sugar - The Leading Cause of Diabetes


This can be seen through Dr. Gary Null's argument. .
             "Carbohydrates are broken down to glucose (sugar) in our body, and the glucose raises our blood sugar. Insulin is then secreted by the pancreas to lower our blood sugar, but in the process, insulin causes the storage of fat and also increases cholesterol levels. Insulin also inhibits the mobilization of (loss of) previously stored fat "(Null 59). Null shows the excessive sugar intake causes symptoms that can lead to many diseases with the faltering bloodstream with high blood sugar in which creates problems in the blood flowing process. Overall the high consumption of sugar leading to the cause of type 2 diabetes elevates high blood sugar and it increase saturated body fats.
             Secondly, sugar is the most common cause of organ failure. People with high levels of sugar mostly experience kidney failure. One of the reasons is because sugar causes internal bodily diseases that damage the tiny blood vessels that act as filters to remove waste products from the blood. Therefore, the kidney is unable to clean your blood vessel properly which causes the organ to fail: according to a web page sponsored by the kidney and diabetes. "Each nephron interlinks with a small tube to keep useful substances, such as proteins and red blood cells, in the bloodstream and allow extra fluid and waste products to pass through, where they become part of the urine. This filtration system can, however, be damaged by high levels of blood sugar. Excess glucose in the bloodstream can cause the kidneys to filter too much blood" ("Kidney failure and diabetes").
             This shows that the excessive rate of sugar increase sugar levels and clogged blood to block passage of circulation of blood. Furthermore, sugar also causes damage to the nerve system. For example, the bladder can encounter difficulty emptying out which leads to infection from rapid growth of urine.
