Studies Link Common Diabetes Medications to More Heart Problems
- Older diabetes drugs like glipizide are linked to higher rates of heart attack, stroke, and even death compared to newer options
- People with Type 2 diabetes already face double the risk of heart problems, making it especially important to avoid medications that add to that danger
- Older diabetes drugs like glipizide are still widely prescribed because they’re inexpensive and familiar, but research shows they come with hidden dangers that put your heart at greater risk
- Lifestyle changes such as cutting vegetable oils, choosing the right carbohydrates, and lowering toxin exposure restore your body’s natural ability to regulate blood sugar
- A simple HOMA-IR blood test detects insulin resistance early, giving you a chance to reverse course before Type 2 diabetes leads to life-threatening complications
