I know the headline sounds funny, but remember that could kill a diabetic.

      Too high or too low can be dangerous, and there’s different varieties of diabetes that make one or both swings more likely/dangerous.

      That’s only a danger if they take too much insulin. Insulin is used by the body to make the cells absorb sugar.

      I’m not 100%, but I’m pretty sure the issue is with restricted ability to use / produce insulin to regulate blood sugar thus leading to dangerously high levels.
