      (3) Symptoms such as prolonged angular slopping, inability to speak, numbness in limbs, etc., eventually lead to serious diseases such as coronary heart disease, cerebral stroke, etc.
Causes:
(1) Diabetes leads to abnormal body lipid metabolism, elevated blood lipids, increased blood viscosity, resulting in lipid deposition in the blood vessel wall, the formation of atherosclerotic plaque.
(2) Blood sugar rises, thickens the blood, and blood toxins easily deposit on the blood vessel walls to form atherosclerosis.
(3) Hyperglycemia leads to platelet aggregation and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
To sum up, the corresponding organ tissue insufficiency caused by ischemia and hypoxia.
.

Experiments have shown that they have the effect of delaying the rise of blood sugar.

In addition to protein, inorganic salts and vitamins, there are more w-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in soybean oil, which can lower blood cholesterol and lower serum triglycerides. . However, if diabetic nephropathy has occurred, it is not advisable to eat soy products.

They are rich in protein, usually around 20%, and contain very little carbohydrates. White lean meat such as poultry and fish contain less saturated fatty acids, and fish oil, especially deep-sea fish oil, contains more unsaturated fatty acids, which is good for diabetes.
