🩺 Sunday Wellness Myth

❌ Myth: Diabetes is primarily a glucose problem.

✅ Reality: Diabetes is a metabolic disease, with glucose at its center but its complications extend far beyond blood sugar.

Chronic hyperglycemia contributes to both microvascular and macrovascular complications:

🧠 Microvascular: eyes, kidneys, nerves

🫀 Macrovascular: heart, brain, peripheral arteries (PAD)

Managing diabetes means looking beyond glucose and A1C to protect the heart, kidneys, brain, eyes, nerves, and vascular health.
