Diabetes isn't only about sugar. Hidden iron overload silently damages pancreatic beta cells, promotes insulin resistance, and disrupts fat hormones. Limiting iron intake and balancing minerals can help mitigate these…
Excess iron can contribute to insulin resistance and cell failure. This review explains the mechanisms linking ferritin levels to higher T2D risk, including oxidative stress and signaling pathways, and discusses dietary…
