Diabetes could dramatically reduce the kidney’s ability to clean itself.
The natural cleanup is called autophagy, which literally means “self-eating”.
It’s a constant throughout our bodies as debris gets packaged into a double-membrane sack, then destroyed by enzymes to help keep cells and organs functioning at a premium.
Diabetes can strongly harm your kidney health. The kidneys often become bulky and dysfunctional in diabetes.
Under the worse conditions, diabetes could lead to kidney failure.
This Health & Medicine Lab video talks about diabetes and kidney failure and how to prevent kidney damage.
