Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the heart conditions which affect the coronary arteries supplying blood to the heart. Coronary Artery Disease causes problems for the major blood vessels to send enough oxygen, nutrients, and blood to the heart muscles. Inflammation and plaque deposits are the primary causes of this condition. It is also known as a silent killer. Some people have had CAD for years and do not have any symptoms until they experience a heart attack.
Diabetes increases the risk of heart disease by damaging the blood vessels and nerves controlling the heart. High glucose levels in the blood can lead to plaque deposits in the arteries making it complex for blood to effectively pump through the arteries and reach to areas like kidneys, eyes, feet, and legs.
