Diabetes. Or, as Wilford Brimley would say, "Diabeetus". It affects a ton of people in the world, and a few people that I know. It isn't as harsh of a disease as it sounds, but still it's not very pleasant to have. Diabetes has a lot to do with blood sugar content, and the symptoms include:
Intense thirst and an uncommonly frequent need to urinate develop as a result of the urine's high sugar content. Constant fatigue, itchy skin and blurred vision are other problems that appear.
Source: Diabetes SymptomsThe long and short of it is, that if you aren't careful in your sugar consumption, you're at a high risk of getting diabetes. Insulin is the junk that typically removes sugar from the blood.
Eating a lot of baked goods, candy, and drinking a lot of soda is really bad for you in the first place, but it is also very much linked with diabetes.
Insulin is not always necessary. Diabetes can be treated through diet, like stop eating simple sugars so that you raise your glucose tolerance, and allowing your blood sugar level to elevate.

ARE YOU INSANE!? In Type 1 Diabetes (an AUTOIMMUNE disease-where antibodies attack the beta cells making insulin)a person cannot make thier own INSULIN: therefore thy need to inject insome manner (syringe/pump/pen). SOME Type 2 Diabetics (a METABOLIC disorder)can use a low CARB diet to control it. FYI: ALL foods, not just sugars, break down eventually into a carb NOT taking insulin is deadly advice. EVERYONE is insulin dependent.
