I have diabetes and my feet hurt: What to do


 



 

I have diabetes and my feet hurt, this was an email that we received on Friday from a young woman who is concerned about the possibility of having the foot amputated (removed). Seeing as her toes are experiencing a lot of aches and is at times numb; she has a valid concern. Our reader also acknowledges that she is aware of the dangers of her condition but is still not sure exactly why this is happening because she is eating right.  In this post titled “I have diabetes and my feet hurt”, we will try and explain why your diet may not be helping to stop the pains.

 

Why diet is often ineffective

 

There are many who upon discovering that they are diabetic try and change their diet, this is a very good thing but for the vast majority this step is not enough to control their blood sugar, the reason for this is due to the fact that the typical diabetic diet is devoid of any healing ingredients. Eliminating sugar from the diet is one of the first things that diabetics change in their diets and this may help a bit but the simple fact of the matter is that eliminating does not equal healing.

 

 

Eliminating things which cause your blood sugar to rise may be good but this is not enough; diabetes is an illness that cries out for a healing combination of foods.  

 

If you have diabetes and your feet hurt this is a clear sign that you need a very specific diet that can heal, few people find this.  The thousands of people in 10 countries who read this site every day know that few diabetics are on a healing diet, healing foot pain is even more difficult.

 

Foot pain from high blood sugar is a sign that the nerve fiber is being affected, this can lead to serious problems.

 

How high blood sugar cost thousands their feet

 

The nerve fiber in the foot is similar to an umbrella that protects you from rain, the nerve fiber is very delicate and blood sugar often destroys this; this is the source of your pain.  Eliminating thing from the diet may be good but this will not stop the damage that the blood sugar has already caused, not healing the nerves is one of the biggest mistakes that diabetics make.
 
 

 

 

Center of disease Control CDC: Each year more than 10,000 people are forced to have part or all of the foot removed due to the damage from high blood sugar.  Look at that Nerve Fiber damage on the upper left side
 
 
 

 

If you have diabetes and your feet hurt, it is important to listen to the feet, once vessel damage begins the nerve fibers are very difficult to repair, this means more pain.  Thank you to our reader for her question.

*The Diabetes repair high blood sugar diet which is now in 17 countries is now included free with the European Diet to stop All Diabetes foot pain.*

Diabetes Impotence? What to do when impotent



Diabetes is a very serious illness which can lead to impotence, the affects of this disease can be quite damaging to the health of the reproduction system. There are many who are pre diabetic but are not aware that they have high blood sugar; according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) 10 million people are pre diabetic without the knowledge that they are affected.  How diabetes leads to impotence is very alarming, there are many who suffer from a weak intimate performance and this is directly related to high blood sugar.

 

 

Different levels of impotence

 

While not being able to perform at all is the classical definition of impotence, there is a more wide spread problem which men are experiencing, it is the inability to complete the act. Some men may start to function normal but the male organ turns soft during the act; high blood sugar is directly related to this problem. Going soft is the problem that most men experience not the inability to perform at all. Viagra and other medications do not address the underlying problems which are serious circulation issues related to the high blood sugar. Diabetes and impotence are connected and should be addressed as quickly as possible.

 

 

What cause the problem?

 

High blood sugar can damage the blood vessels and nerves which control a man’s firmness in his organ. If you have normal amounts of male hormones and you have the desire to have intimacy, you still may not be able to achieve a firm condition. Diabetes causes the arteries in the male organ to become narrowed with plaque, this leads to less oxygen rich blood flowing into the area; the organ will be soft. In some cases high blood sugar causes the natural nitric oxide to the organ to “leak out”, leading to weak performance.  The nerves in the male organ must be in top condition to contract and this is hindered in diabetics. The longer a person has diabetes the more damage that is done to the blood vessels and arteries, it is best to address impotence immediately with diet.

 

There is some good news, there is a diet from Europe which has been reversing diabetes impotence; the diet causes the reversal of a soft male organ or full impotence, it is now used in over 10 countries without the need for a prescription to make men stay firm during the act.

Should I take Metformin for diabetes, risk and side effects?





There are many who are prescribed metformin for early diabetes and many of these people may not need the medication. This post is not a knock on the medication, but it is a wake up call as to how many doctors will quickly prescribe this medication without informing their patients that the illness is complete reversible drug free. Metformin is in many cases being overly doled out because doctors don’t believe that you will do the necessary lifestyle modifications to reverse the illness.

 

Why doctors quickly prescribe drugs

 

Doctors are actually doing the right thing in trying to control your blood sugar, they are trying to get the excessive high levels of glucose out of the bloodstream but what they do not often tell you is that this can often be done without medications.  There is not one afe diabetic medication, metformin has a very bad side effect, the drug causes a severe drop in your vitamin B 12 level, and this is particularly bad for the diabetic.  Diabetics are at constant danger of lower limb complications such as muscle cramps, artery blockage and nerve fiber damage, vitamin b12 is crucial for the diabetic. The fact that metformin will block vitamin b12 is not only alarming, it is down right dangerous.

 

 

 

The research shows a strong connection between Metformin and Vitamin B12

 

 

Of patients who take this Metformin, almost 40% showed evidence of reduced vitamin B12 absorption. Metformin interferes with the ability of your cells to absorb vitamin B12 complex. Over the long term, vitamin B12 insufficiency is a significant health risk. There is also a strong connection between B12 insufficiency and cardiovascular disease.  The scary thing about the drug is that a study showed that after discontinuing the drug the vitamin b12 deficiency was NOT being reversed, the cells were changed!  This is why simply trying to add a vitamin b12 pill while taking metforimin is not the solution. The drug is affecting your cells.

 

We are the number one diabetes foot site on the internet and we are read daily in 17 countries, diabetes lower limb issues are horrible and they can lead to the remove of the limb. Neuropathy (the nerve damage of diabetes) is serious and metformin may make this worst according to doctors.

 

"We had a few patients complaining about peripheral neuropathy who hadn't [had diabetes] very long, but they were on metformin. We decided to look at vitamin B12 s deficiency [as an explanation], said Jasna Klen, PhD, an internist, radiologist, and diabetes specialist at Hospital Trbovlje in Slovenia, who presented the research on the vitamin b12 dilemma when taking Meformin.

 

 

We are not advocating stopping any medications but why not address diabetes or diabetes foot pain drug free like people in over 10 countries do daily with this site.

 

  • Update* the Diabetes foot report now includes the $25 Diabetes reversal report free of charge. Both reports totaling more than 60 pages are now being offered for one price.  Your body will thank you for reversing the illness drug free.

My diabetes leg pain is bad, the urgent message


 
 
“My Diabetes leg pain is bad” this was the message that we received yesterday from one of our many readers. Pains in the legs are one of the horrible consequences of living with the illness, it is absolutely necessary that more people become informed of the ways in which the lower limbs suffer when blood sugar is high.  In the middle of this very serious diabetic epidemic are the causalities of the illness, one of the consequences which does not getting enough publicity is lower limb aches. “My diabetes leg pain is bad” was the cry from our reader, when someone comes to the realization that their situation is bad it usually means that they have waited too long to address the situation.

 

What to do?

 

Before we discuss what to do, we will discuss what is happening to the leg; it is a very dangerous situation.

 

Excessive blood sugar has a very negative affect on the circulation, this dilemma leads to the removal of thousands of people’s legs each year due to excessive blood sugar. High blood sugar is a poison in the system, as time goes by the damage is often irreversible. 

 

My diabetes leg pain is bad

 

High blood sugar often causes the arteries in the legs to become chocked off (blocked); this can be a very dangerous situation.

 

 PAD (Peripheral artery disease) is common in diabetics; PAD is when the arteries become clogged.


 

 

For the diabetic pins/needles, tingling and numbness or other pains are a stark warning.

 

Excessive blood sugar is destructive and particularly damaging to the arteries in the legs.

 

Data from the Framingham Heart Study revealed that 20% of patients with PAD had diabetes, but this probably greatly underestimates the prevalence, given that many more people with PAD are without symptoms.  Diabetes and artery blockage are linked.

 

The surgery to repair diabetes blocked arteries cost over $5,000 dollar and usually involves the insertion of a stent to keep the arteries open.

 

 

Get the right diet to avoid surgery

 

Diabetes leg pain is serious and should be addressed immediately with diet!

 

There is a diabetes leg pain diet from Europe which is now used in more than 10 countries including the United States; it has been helping people save the legs with diet alone.

Foot Hurts and Diabetes, what you must do



 

 

It is a very common ailment, the foot hurts and this is often related to diabetes. One of the sad consequences of the worldwide diabetic crisis is the revelation that many people are losing their limbs to the illness. One of the major factors in regards to increased amputations (surgical removal of the limb) is the fact that millions are unaware that they are living with high blood sugar. When the foot hurts it is a signal that blood sugar is damaging the nerves in the limb.  

 

 

Why the feet suffer more

 

The reason that the feet suffer so greatly when a person has high blood sugar is due to the fact that there are very many small blood vessels in the foot which are easily damaged.  Excessive blood sugar ruins the circulatory system, and this in turn can lead to amputation of the lower limb. Nerve damage is not easily repaired, it is crucial that any pain in the feet receive immediate attention.

 

Because of long-term nerve damage, people with diabetes face up to a 25 percent lifetime risk of amputation, according to current research.  When the foot hurts and a person has pre or full diabetes it can be a very strong warning sign which should not ignored.

 

 

The Center for Disease Control estimates that there are more than 30 million people worldwide who are not aware that they are diabetic; often the symptoms of the disease are ignored. Diabetes is one of the most damaging illnesses; the excessive blood sugar should be removed naturally from the body with diet not drugs.  Dizziness, thirst and other symptoms should not be ignored. Not addressing the illness swiftly is the reason many are in danger of lower limb nerve damage. Numbness, pain, tingling, pins and needles are all signs of the nerve damage, this is the consequence of excessive blood sugar.  Blood sugar in excess is a poison, it is crucial that people understand the power of this enemy and how it destroys the body.  There is not one organ in the body which is not affected by high blood sugar, the liver, kidneys and heart all suffer under this illness. When the foot hurts, it is always a sign; it is a very important warning from your body for action.  80% of people who had a leg, foot or toes removed could have save the limb had they acted in time. When the foot hurts it is a message to you from your body.

 

Researchers in Europe have been saving the feet with a very specialized diet created to stop the pain and nerve damage from high blood sugar. The diet is now used regularly by thousands in 17 countries to save the feet and avoid surgery.

As diabetes rates soar so does foot pain




Admittance to the hospital for Diabetes foot pain is on the upswing according to statistics for the World Health Organization, the worldwide diabetic crisis is on the upswing and it causing deep lower limb pains to many people. There has been a sharp increase in the numbers amputations (removal of the leg or feet).  Diabetes foot pain is a serious warning that should not be ignored; prompt action is the best remedy as the nerves are often difficult to repair.

 

 

The damage to the nerves

 

We must emphasis that the nerve damage as a result of high blood sugar is often not repairable. Numbness, sharp pains and cramps are all signs of possible nerve damage, there have been an increase in amputations (the removal of the feet or legs) due to the worldwide increase in diabetic high blood sugar.

 

The biggest surprise according to the study is that an Amazing 25% was not aware they were diabetic

 

Not knowing you have high blood sugar causes prolonged damage to the organs and the limbs, high blood sugar is a sneak illness which slowly but powerfully takes over the body.  Diabetes leg pain is a sign of nerve damage but many are not addressing the nerve damage until it is too late.

 

1 in 4 does not know it, according to new data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

That figure, based on 2012 data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)

The doctor reiterated what we have been saying on this site for 5 years, immediate action is mandatory to save your limbs.

"Diabetes is costly in both human and economic terms. It's urgent that we take swift action to effectively treat and prevent this serious disease," Dr. Albright said.

 

There are no drugs which can repair nerve damage; some people may need surgery to stop the spread of gangrene in the limb, and this is a very serious condition.

 

 

European diet saving the feet


There is some good news, there is a diet that has been reversing diabetes foot pain, the painful feet gets help and are reversed without surgery.  It is a specialized diabetic foot diet which is used in Europe and is now used in 10 countries to stop the painful condition.

Diabetes feet burning, a very serious warning

If you have diabetes and burning feet it is a very serious warning sign of diabetic neuropathy, this means that the nerve ending of the foot is being seriously damaged. The burn in the foot from continually high blood sugar is often the first sign of danger, if treatment is ignored this can lead to amputation (the removal of the limb). The rise of the worldwide type 2 diabetic crises has resulted in the amputation of thousands of limbs each year, if you have diabetes with burning feet this post will explain what is happening in your body and what to do about it.



The worldwide crisis getting worse

The crisis of high blood sugar has become a worldwide phenomenon effecting millions in Europe, the USA and India; the complications from excessive glucose (sugars) is also resulting in blindness, kidney failure and heart attack. The lower limbs are very susceptible to damage from high blood sugar, thousands have to have a leg removed  each year due to high blood sugar; it is crucial for diabetics to take action to save the lower limbs seeing  as high blood  glucose can lead to nerve damage.


 The neuropathies (nerve damage) are the most common of all the late complications of high blood sugar and gives rise to much suffering among diabetic patients. Burning feet with diabetes is a warning of nerve damage, it is best to treat this swiftly seeing as nerve damage is extremely difficult to reverse.  Although each person may be experiencing different stages of nerve damage ranging from severely painful limbs to the complete loss of sensation in the limbs, the bottom line is that the nerve damage will only worsen if it is not addressed.


High blood sugar is a very damaging illness, glucose (sugar) is needed by the cells but the diabetic has glucose that is invading the bloodstream and not entering the cell; excessive glucose in the blood is a poison which damages the liver, heart, lungs, kidneys and limbs. Each day that a person lives with high blood sugar they are literally destroying the organs and the limbs of the body.  


A solution

Although nerve damage from excessive sugar in the blood is extremely difficult to reverse (glucose destroys the nerve ending causing sharp pain and burn in the toes and fingers) there is some good news. A diet in Europe specifically designed to address the burning feet of diabetes has been shown to stop the burn, pain and reduce the nerve damage. It is a natural specialized diabetic foot diet that is used in Europe; it is now used in 10 countries

Diabetes feet pain is a sign of serious damage

Living with diabetes and experiencing feet pain signals diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage), left untreated this can lead to very serious complication including the removal of the limb. The rise in worldwide high blood sugar has led to increasing amputations, thousands of people each year lose a limb due to the effects of high blood sugar. A new study today highlights the fact that living with excessive glucose in the bloodstream can be extremely dangerous.

High blood sugar and the devastating effects on the body

"We found that diabetes increased the risk of disability by 50 percent to 80 percent compared to those without diabetes, and this result was consistent across all types of disability," said review senior author Anna Peeters, head of obesity and population health at Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute in Melbourne, Australia. It is clear that excessive levels of sugar in the bloodstream create extraordinary complications. What does it really mean when a person who is a diabetic experiences feet pain? The painful condition is a sign of nerve or/and arterial damage, this may also cause discoloration and swelling. The painful condition is a warning, lower limb pains are often one the first complications people who have lost a limb will experience.

Excessive sugars in the bloodstream cause destructive metabolically changes, these changes impair the nerves' ability to transmit signals. High blood glucose damages blood vessels which carry oxygen and nutrients to the nerves, as we can see high blood sugar is a very destructive illness which when left untreated can lead to irreversible damage. The lower limbs are often where so much of the more serious complications occur, pain in the feet from diabetes signals that nerve ending are being effected; it must be stated that high blood sugar also causes artery damage leading possible loss of limbs. If you are a diabetic the most important thing is getting the excessive amounts of poison sugars out of your body. There is some good news, there is a diet that has been reversing diabetic feet pain, it is a specialized diabetic feet diet that is used in Europe, it is now used in 10 countries

Can High blood sugar cause foot swelling? Yes

Living with high blood sugar is extremely dangerous and it can cause foot swelling and other health complications. There is an epidemic of type 2 diabetes that has been sweeping much of the World, the United States, Asia, Africa and Europe have all been experiencing record number of cases of diabetes. The World Health Organization states that over 350 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes. High blood sugar can cause foot swelling, this condition know as edema can be a warning sign of heart troubles and may result in the loss of the foot.


In healthy people the hormone insulin creates energy to the cells from sugar but this is not the case in diabetics, the person with diabetes has the sugar flood the bloodstream and this is where the health complications begin. As the sugar floods the bloodstream it causes damage to the organs of the body, the limbs are also effected due to circulation blockage. Swollen limbs from excessive sugar in the blood leads to blood vessel deterioration and blockage.

Diabetic feet swelling is the collection of fluid in the feet, ankles and legs. Extra consideration is needed for people who have edema and diabetes. It can occur in one or both lower extremities.
Damage to capillaries or increased pressure can cause capillaries to leak fluid into surrounding tissues and result in high blood sugar swelling.



Note: Diabetic medications like Actos, Avandia and others are dangerous and can also cause feet to swell! Diabetic Medications are linked to heart disease and swelling of the limbs. Drugs  side effects such as swelling can indicate that the medication is effecting the heart negatively. Diabetic Medications are linked to heart attack.


Reversing the foot problems naturally and drug free

A study at Imperial College London revealed that the foot damage can be reversed if caught in time. Dr Eszter Vamos said they had expected to see long-term complications of diabetes rising to some extent because the number of people diagnosed with the condition had increased. It is clear that high blood sugar can cause foot swelling.

"But at the same time there is very strong evidence that with a multidisciplinary team approach you can prevent up to 80% of the amputations. Said Dr. Vamos

Why are my Feet Blue with Diabetes?

Those who have diabetes and are experiencing discoloration such as blue feet must take this extremely serious. What does it mean when there is skin color changes in the foot due to high blood sugar? The answer lies in the circulation., high blood sugar can cause extreme damage to the lower limbs. One of the more alarming signs of trouble is diabetes blue feet, discoloration signifies damage to the circulation which can result in the removal of the foot if the damage persist.


What causes the discoloration

Diabetes damages blood vessels and ruins the circulation, the illness decreases the blood flow to the lower limbs. Poor circulation weakens bone, and can cause disintegration of the bones and joints in the foot and ankle. High blood sugar constricts blood vessels producing damage to the nerves. The blood vessels are dependent on oxygen rich blood for proper circulation, the lack of proper circulation is where the diabetic loses the limb. When the foot turns color it s a sign that the circulation is being choked off, the blood vessels are narrowing and oxygen rich blood is being restricted. Diabetes blue feet are a sign of the circulation being choked off, this very dangerous situation can become worst, a slight cut can turn into a quick infection that does not heal, the end result may be the loss of the foot.

Many are needlessly losing the lower limbs to the illness.

Many diabetics are needlessly losing a leg or a foot to the illness, doctors in the United Kingdom reported this week that over 8,000 amputation could have been avoided had the diabetic addressed the illness immediately, if you are experiencing any limb discoloration it is a sign that the damage to the circulation is getting worst, it is crucial to confront the illness immediately.


80% of amputations could have been avoided

A study at Imperial College London revealed that the foot damage can be reversed if caught in time. Dr Eszter Vamos said they had expected to see long-term complications of diabetes rising to some extent because the number of people diagnosed with the condition had increased.
"But at the same time there is very strong evidence that with a multidisciplinary team approach you can prevent up to 80% of the amputations. Said Dr. Vamos



There is some good news from Europe, a diabetic diet created for diabetic neuropathy (limb nerve damage) has been reversing the foot circulation problem (diabetes blue feet) it is now used in over 10 countries

What to do about Diabetes swollen feet

Diabetes swollen feet is a sign of a very serious circulation problem resulting from high blood sugar, it cannot be understated that excess glucose in the bloodstream is a literal poison to the organs of the body. The numbers of foot amputations has increased greatly over the last 10 years in the United Stated and Europe, diabetes swollen feet signals that an excess of glucose(sugar) is damaging the cells(circulation) of the the lower limbs; it is this condition that causes thousands each year to lose a limb to this very serious illness.

Below the ankle amputations increasing

The phenomenon of foot amputations from diabetes is increasing incredibly in Europe and the United States, recent statistics over the last decade reveals that below-ankle amputations doubled to more than 2,000, and major amputations increased by 43 per cent in England, the situation is worst in the United States. Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90 per cent of cases and is caused by the body not responding properly to insulin or not producing enough. The illness impairs blood flow to the extremities, resulting in nerve damage. Diabetes swollen feet also know as “edema” must not be ignored, it is crucial to address the situation immediately to save the foot.


Excessive blood sugar is a poison to the body

When excess blood sugar lives in the bloodstream it has a damaging effect on the nerves and circulation, this is the cause of the loss of arms, legs and feet to diabetes. The medical term for nerve damage from excess glucose in the bloodstream is “diabetic neuropathy”, in a person with a normal blood sugar level glucose enters the cells and is used for energy, but this is not the case in diabetics. Diabetics have cells that do not receive the glucose into the cells, the sugar floods the bloodstream instead of entering the cells. When glucose floods the bloodstream it causes nerve and organ damage, this is what causes diabetes swollen feet. It must be noted that diabetic medications such as Actos can also cause swelling in the feet, the medication has been linked to heart attack. Diabetic medications can cause just as much harm as the illness. The most important thing is the reversal of the diabetic foot condition.

80% of amputation could have been avoided

Dr Eszter Vamos of Imperial College London said they had expected to see long-term complications of diabetes rising to some extent because the number of people diagnosed with the condition had increased.

The doctor makes it clear like thousands you can save the foot

"But at the same time there is very strong evidence that with a multidisciplinary team approach you can prevent up to 80 per cent of the amputations.

There is some good news, there is a Specialized European diet that has been reversing diabetic foot problems in over 10 countries, foot problems are reversed naturally, stopping the nerve and circulation damage, it is now used in over 10 countries

Why do diabetics lose their toes? A warning



Why do diabetics lose toes or the foot to high blood sugar? High blood glucose is a poison in the body that effects the limbs, each year there are literally thousands of people who must experience having a limb removed due to living with high blood glucose. The extremities are often very heavily effected by diabetes. We received a question from a reader “Why do diabetics lose their toes”, in this post we will explore how the illness effects the feet and can cause a person to lose the limb.

The attack on the circulation

Diabetes has a powerfully negative effect on the circulation, excess glucose in the bloodstream causes damage to the cells of the body. Diabetes affects the micro-circulation, the large arteries and occasionally the large and small veins, by causing vessel wall hardening. The degree of stiffening produced is linked to its duration. The ability of the person with high blood sugar to distribute blood is affected, especially during increased blood flow. As we can see, diabetes is a horrible illness that causes the loss of the circulation, this can also cause chest pain,heart attack and removal of the leg. Why do diabetics lose their toes? The circulation problems lead to swellings,pain and numbness, all which may result in the removal of the foot or leg.

Save your own foot

One of the starkest statements about reversing high blood sugar complications came from Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences Dean Prof Memon. “People with diabetes need to take an active part in their own care” Not taking charge of the illness is what too many people with high blood sugar are not doing. Over 80% of people who lost a leg to diabetes could have saved the leg. The answer to the question, as to, why do diabetics lose their toes is due to the fact that the poison high levels of blood sugar damages the circulation. The circulation damage can lead to swelling,sores and possible gangrene. The loss of feet,fingers and legs to diabetes can be avoid but you must take an active part in the reversal of the illness. 

There is some good news, there is a diet that has been reversing diabetic foot problems, the swollen feet get help and are reversed, it is a specialized diabetic feet diet that is used in Europe, it is now used in 10 countries

What can help Diabetes swollen Feet



Diabetes swollen feet must be rectified quickly, it is necessary to receive help before permanent nerve damage occurs in the foot. There has been an increase in amputations due to an explosion of high blood sugar over the last 2 decades; researchers in the United States, UK and India have all reported a startling increase in the numbers of people who are losing a foot to the illness. When it comes to nerve damage from high blood sugar immediately help is crucial to prevent the loss of the foot. Diabetes swollen feet are a sign of nerve and circulation damage.

The Centers for Disease Control report that the number of diabetes-related lower limb amputations have increased by over 227 percent between 1980 (33,000) and 2003 (75,000). This is a tremendous number of people who have had to have the leg or foot removed; the numbers afflicted over the last 5 years are even scarier with a rise over 300%. It is very important to monitor the circulation when a person has a high blood sugar, diabetes effects the circulation in a horrible way; the excess blood glucose causes edema (swelling) in the extremities. Diabetes swollen feet are a sign that your circulation has been negatively effected by the illness.

"Among all the complications from diabetes, amputation can be the worst," said Dr. Craig Walker, of the Cardiovascular Institute of the South, in Houma, La

"Amputation affects a person's quality of life drastically, from mobility to self-image. It is also associated with a decreased life expectancy”

Diabetes causes the blood vessels to narrow and this chokes off the circulation, the decreased oxygen supply from narrow blood vessels causes swelling (edema) and sadly for many the loss of the limb. It is crucial to get help for diabetes swollen feet.

The root cause of diabetes comes from insulin resistance; this comes from our modern day food supply (highly processed food chemicals in the food)

There is some good news, there is a diet that has been reversing diabetic foot problems, the swollen feet gets help and are reversed without surgery.  It is a specialized diabetic feet diet which is used in Europe and is now used in 10 countries to stop the painful condition.  See Here Diabetes feet swollen

Why Diabetes feet swelling is a crucial warning


If you have diabetes and are experiencing feet that are swelling it is a very dangerous sign that you are in danger of losing the foot. High blood sugar is a poison in the bloodstream and causes the death of the cells and organs of the body. Over 300 million worldwide are losing the battle against glucose in their bodies, it is crucial to address the illness swiftly to save you organs and limbs . Diabetes feet swelling is one of the first signs that you are in danger of losing the foot. After edema comes the discoloration as the picture above illustrates.

The rise in diabetic complications

Some of the more scarier problems that have been observed by medical professionals are the many thousands who are experiencing complications from living with high glucose in the bloodstream. Glucose is good and when you are healthy it goes into your cells giving you energy but this is not the case with those who have high blood sugar, the glucose floods the bloodstream instead of going into the cells. The cells are resistance and will not accept the glucose, this glucose flooding is a poison in your bloodstream. Diabetes feet swelling is a very serious warning that circulation damage from the glucose flood in your bloodstream is occurring.

Excess Glucose in the blood destroys the circulation

The numbers of people losing arms,fingers,toes and legs to diabetic levels of high glucose has increased 300% in the last 10 years according to the Center for Disease control in the United States. Swelling in the limbs is called “Edema” and it often signals damage is also happening to the heart valve, the circulatory system is holistic and if one part is effected usually the whole is suffering. Heart disease from high glucose is common because as we stated earlier high glucose is a poison in the bloodstream. Diabetes feet swelling is a very crucial warning that the circulation and nerves are being damaged, if you do nothing you may be one of the many who had to have the foot removed. There is some interesting news from Europe, a diabetic diet created for diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage) has been reversing the high glucose foot complications without medications, it is now used in over 10 countries

What does it mean to have diabetes and swollen feet? Trouble


Diabetes with Swollen feet signals major circulation problems, many have lost a foot to this illness, it is imperative that extreme attention be paid if the foot starts to swell. High blood sugar has become a worldwide crisis and the numbers of people who are suffering the consequences are huge, feet swollen from diabetes can be a very serious sign of circulation trouble and heart damage.

Edema

Edema is a condition where fluid floods the tissues of the body, this can be a serious complication of high blood sugar and it can be the beginnings stages of losing the foot if the condition is not reversed. Edema is strongly related to the condition of the heart and is linked to high blood sugar. A high blood sugar level means that the bloodstream is being flooded with a poison high level of glucose, it is this extreme amount of glucose that damages the organs of the diabetic body. Each day the diabetic experiences a glucose pounding in the cells of the heart,liver,kidneys and lungs. Diabetics experience heart attacks at an increased rate, a diabetic has heart attack rates similar to a person who has already had a heart attack.

Edema related blood sugar problems is a strong warning about the condition of the diabetics heart. If you have diabetes and your feet are swollen it is a sign your heart is being effected.

The loss of the foot

As the circulation gets worst sores and ulcers often develop, the end result can be the loss of the foot.
