The reduced insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat tissue, the heart and lungs expresses itself, both during periods of normal and increased sugar levels in the blood. The permanently increased blood sugar level is the cause of the increasing insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes and triggers diabetes with other diseases. Currently (2020) around 560,000 people in Germany develop diabetes every year. That corresponds roughly to a big city such as Bremen.
