That's uplifting news, but it has a downside: A longer life span means that people with diabetes run the risk of developing long-term complications. Diabetes affects nearly every organ system of the body. It is a major risk factor for strokes and coronary heart disease, the cause of heart attacks. It also is the leading cause of new cases of adult blindness, chronic and irreversible kidney disease, and leg and foot amputations not caused by injury.
