Is Your Pet Showing Signs of Diabetes?
If your pet is acting more sluggish than usual, drinking and peeing more, or developing cataracts (and possibly going blind), it could be a sign of high blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin production.
What’s Going on Inside Your Pet’s Body?
The pancreas—an organ that helps regulate blood sugar by producing insulin—may be struggling. Think of it like a colleague who’s overwhelmed with work:
constant pressure makes them tired, irritable, and less efficient. Over time, this leads to burnout, just like the pancreas in a pet with diabetes.
What’s Overworking the Pancreas?
The main culprits are processed, carb-heavy, and sugar-rich foods, treats, and even certain supplements. These foods demand a constant flow of insulin, putting the pancreas under strain—
just like a worker being asked to stay overtime every single day. We all know that constant overload leads to exhaustion and burnout!
