2. Diabetes  Diabetes is a disorder in which the pancreas does not properly produce insulin and the cells do not recognize it.  Type 1: Usually found in children and young adults due to passing down from parent to children.  Type 2: Developed over time through bad health practices and unhealthy lifestyles.

3. Cardiovascular System  When blood glucose levels become high, it can damage the blood vessels.  This affects the cardiovascular system because it makes it harder for blood to circulate through the body.  This can cause a tingling sensation in the legs from lack of blood.

4. Digestive System  Can cause gastroparesis.  A disorder affecting individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.  Affects people by taking too long to empty stomach contents.

5. Immune System  Causes immune system to destroy insulin producing cells within the pancreas.  Lowers immune response.  More susceptible to infections.

6. Nervous System  Can cause diabetic neuropathies, family of nerve disorders caused by diabetes.  Loss of feeling in extremities.  Nerve damage to digestive tract, heart, and sex organs.  Peripheral neuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, poximal neuropathy, and focal neuropathy.

7. Respiratory System  Adversely affect breathing.  Ketoacidosis and kussmaul breathing, high levels of blood glucose accompanied by high levels of ketones in the blood.

8. Urinary System  If there is an access of glucose in the blood the kidneys will clean it out and create urine.  High blood glucose levels can promote bacterial growth which will raise the chances of an UTI.  Can cause kidney damage and nerve damage.

9. Conclusion  Diabetes can affect all systems of the body and can create life threatening disorders that should always be monitored.
