Type 2 diabetes is mostly due to the liver.

Except for type 1 diabetes, which involves the inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin, most acquired diabetes cases—especially those without a family history but caused by dietary issues—are said to be almost 90% glycogenic diabetes.

​

Experiencing liver problems and undergoing dialysis, then developing diabetes, if left untreated, the pancreas can become severely damaged, leading to irreversible type 2 diabetes.

​

I now understand why doctors emphasize the importance of the golden time after a diabetes diagnosis and why they tell you to lose weight quickly.

​

If diabetes persists for a long time without improving lifestyle and diet habits after diagnosis and relying solely on medication, the pancreas becomes exhausted, leading to irreversible diabetes, as well as complications from diseases such as fatty liver, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. I am confident that if the golden time is not missed when diabetes occurs due to these complications, even early-stage type 2 diabetes can be sufficiently overcome.

​

Of course, even if you are diagnosed with diabetes once and quickly manage to normalize your blood sugar, if you return to your previous habits, the diabetes can recur. Since there is no cure for diabetes once you have it, those who say they will just take medication and live like this cannot turn back.

​

Diabetes -> Pancreas. While not incorrect, we are increasingly recognizing that diabetes -> Liver, as type 2 diabetes is more common.

​

Especially to prevent fatty liver (insulin resistance), I will diligently exercise and strictly follow a dietary regimen.
