Diabetes Mellitus

Also known as: diabetes · blood sugar disorder · sugar disease · DM · elevated blood sugar · insulin problem · glycosuria · metabolic disease · hyperglycemia
Your Body Is Speaking
Your blood is sweet — too sweet. Your body can no longer process the sugar you take in properly. Either your pancreas produces too little insulin, or your cells no longer respond to the signal that tells them: take in this energy, use it, live from it. Medicine distinguishes types, measures values, regulates from the outside. And that matters — diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disease.
But the question BodySignal asks runs deeper: What is happening inside you that your body can no longer absorb the sweetness of life? Why does the energy circulate through your system without ever arriving? Why does what could nourish you remain standing at the door of your cells — out of reach, even though it is right there?
Diabetes is not merely a problem of blood sugar. It is the image of a person starving in the midst of abundance.
