Glucose fuels the cells and it works as the energy when assisted by insulin. Under Diabetes mellitus, your body either fails to produce sufficient amount of insulin or remains unable to use the insulin produced.

As a result, the glucose builds up in your blood leading to the destruction of tiny blood vessels in your heart, kidneys, eyes, or nervous system. If left untreated, this can lead to heart disease, stroke, blindness, foot ulcers, kidney disease and nerve damages in the feet (foot ulsers).
