Most Americans have Type 2 Diabetes.

Type 2 Diabetes is caused by insulin resistance; this causes a build up of glucose.

When your body has a build up of glucose that can’t be broken down it does 2 things:
1.) Immediately your cells (body) may be starved for energy
2.) Long term your eyes, kidneys, nerves or heart can be damaged.

In order to prevent or delay long term damage you need to keep your blood glucose levels as close to normal as possible.
