This is especially significant in the case of diabetic individuals, since the risk of
experiencing a stroke or a heart disease is double when the individual has diabetes.
Engaging in “binge-eating”, eating an excessive amount of food, particularly high-fat food products can generate a significant increase in the glucose levels of the person's blood. This increment can cause a wide range of health problems. These include heart damage and other heart diseases. Therefore, healthy eating is essential to prevent heart attack and stroke.
