Diabetes control means more than just controlling Blood Glucose.High blood glucose is just one part of the story of Diabetes. Diabetes is caused by relative deficiency of Insulin, usually in type II Diabetics more o Blood Sugar (Glucose)Studies like UKPDS and DCCT have shown that only controlling blood glucose levels may not be sufficient to stop or delay complications of Diabetes, specially those related to Heart and blood vessels (Heart Attack & Stroke) may occur in well controlled Diabetics. Hence the approach to management of Diabetes should be comprehensive and all inclusive. Cholesterols & LipidsDecreasing the cholesterol ( specially the non HDL part of it) has been shown to decrease Heart and Blood vessels related complications. WeightWeight (loss) is an important factor as overweight Diabetics tend to have more complications.
