There are more than 9 million people living with diabetes or prediabetes today in Canada, with new cases increasing dramatically due to an aging population, higher levels of obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and poor diet. Diabetes is a disease that arises when the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin, or use that insulin correctly, to get glucose (sugar) from the blood into our cells to act as fuel. When cells become resistant to insulin, or when too little insulin is produced, blood glucose levels begin to rise. High blood sugar is associated with increased inflammation and damage to tissues such as blood vessels, which then increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and critical limb ischaemia.
