Diabetes, a condition marked by high levels of blood sugar, can result in nerve damage and pain throughout the body if symptoms are not kept in check.
Effects can range from Focal Neuropathy affecting the hands and eyes to Peripheral Neuropathy of the feet.
Those with diabetic neuropathy may experience pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in their extremities.
Neuropathic pain can develop when long-lasting high blood sugar or blood pressure levels damage nerve endings. Over time, this can lead to lasting nerve damage and neuropathy.
Diabetic nerve damage can lead to pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the feet – or neuropathy. This can make it especially easy for diabetic wounds to develop or go unnoticed.
High blood glucose levels can make you more susceptible to developing cardiovascular disease, having low energy, and other complications.
If diabetic symptoms are not managed, you have higher risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and heart attack. Managing your diabetes is key to avoiding these serious complications.

Getting exercise every day should be an essential regardless of whether or not you have diabetes. However, getting physical activity every day, when paired with a balanced, nutrient-rich meal, should help keep blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol at healthy levels.
Stress can contribute to oxidative damage and inflammation, which can exacerbate your physical symptoms of diabetes. Keep your stress levels low with aromatherapy, self-care, and meditation techniques.
Diabetes can lead to numbness in the feet, making it very easy for wounds and issues to go unnoticed.
Prevent these injuries by inspecting your feet daily, washing and drying them thoroughly, and keeping toenails trimmed.
If you have diabetes, regular checkups are essential for making sure your health goals stay on track. Keep all your appointments, and be sure to bring up any changes in your health or symptoms to your doctor.
Well Theory offers a variety of supplements to help you manage your diabetes symptoms. Alpha-lipoic Acid (ALA) is a naturally occurring, highly antioxidant substance that can help to protect the body from nerve damage and oxidative stress.
