Heart Attack and stroke are the leading cause of death for diabetics. It is very important for diabetics to modify their risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including aggressively treating cholesterol and lipid abnormalities. LDL is the lipid particle, when high, with the highest risk for cardiovascular disease. The goal LDL in diabetes is always below 100, but even less than 70 in some diabetics. It is also important to control blood pressure.

As a non physician health provider, the most important thing to tell people is their diet can significantly improve diabetes, and prevent the complications.
