The type of diabetes found in men is type two diabetes. It involves adult, it is formerly called Adult in-set diabetes or non insulin dependent diabetes, it is the most common type of diabetes, affecting about 16 million men as of 2013 global estimation. At least 5.1 million deaths is been recorded every year courtesy of diabetes mellitus.
Not similar in people with type 1 diabetes, patients with type 2 diabetes produce insulin as it's suppose to; but the body cells is not able to react and use up the insulin secreted by the pancreas in a proper manner. This process is called INSULIN RESISTANCE.
When insulin is not sufficient, or the insulin is not properly used as
it should, the glucose (sugar) will not be able to get into the body
cells to be used as fuel or energy. However, when sugar builds up in
the blood streams instead of moving into the cells. Therefore, the body
cells is been deprived from it's essential nutrient, so it's gets
hungry and will nit function or work properly. Additional problems connected with the build up of sugar in the blood stream are:
* BODY DAMAGE AND EYE DISORDER
Prolonged high blood sugar in the body will make glucose to be absorbed towards the Lens of the eye, destroying the nerves and small blood vessels of the eye. It then changes the original shape of the eye into another shape entirely, causing the vision to change.The kidney and the heart is also affected by this action of small blood vessel damage which makes a man or woman vulnerable to heart attack and stroke disease.
* DEHYDRATION
THIS is a condition whereby water is been removed from the body. Glucose (sugar) building up in the blood stream can cause frequent urination. After the kidney lose the sugar through the urine, so much water is also lost out of the body, hence dehydration takes place.

* HYPEROSMOLAR NON-KETOTIC DIABETIC STATE
When a type 2 diabetes person urinates severally without filling up the water lost through urine (unable to drink water or any Other liquid substance) , this may cause the person to go into diabetic coma which is a very dangerous complication.
