Type 2 diabetes is not a blood sugar problem but rather a metabolic dysfunction where elevated blood sugar is merely the symptom (like a fever) rather than the root cause (like an infection); the actual disease involves insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, which must be addressed for effective treatment.

Why Type 2 Diabetes is NOT a Blood Sugar Problem #podcast #diabetes #supplementsAdded:
Here's a common belief.
Very very common.
Type 2 diabetes is a blood sugar problem.
That sounds right to me.
>> Right, doesn't it? Yeah.
It's not.
>> Okay.
>> So, that sounds paradoxical because blood sugar is what we measure. This is what A1C tracks. This is what the glucometer or the continuous glucose monitor shows. But, elevated blood sugar is the output of the disease or rather the result of the disease and not the disease itself. In other words, it's the fever, not the infection.
