Hey Ann,
Im speaking as someone who’s had diabetes 18 years (i’m 29). i eat well and work out a ton- no depression or cardiovascular problems.
I havent had any problems except for when i get low blood sugar.
One thing i think should be considered in those tests is the fact that our Endocrine system is affected by diabetes. All those organs in the system are related. When our pancreases crap out it puts a strain on thyroid, adrenals, reproductive organs etc and that will mess with our hormones. we definitely gotta keep an eye on those levels.
yeah, erratic blood sugars affect mood for sure and diabetes affects overall health but we have the choice to take care of ourselves or not. i think that the type of women who wouldnt take care of herself would be more prone to depression. for example. And someone who goes to the gym isnt just rolling over and giving up so they would be healthier all around
I believe that physical/emotional/spiritual health are all related.
I’m wondering how these diabetic women in the test compare to non diabetic women???
