In my years as a surgeon, I’ve seen countless patients manage diabetes with a focus on blood sugar, yet many overlook how it affects their digestive system. This connection is more significant than most realise, and addressing it can transform how we manage diabetes.

Gastroparesis is a condition that delays stomach emptying, leading to unpredictable blood sugar spikes and severe discomfort. Many patients suffer from diabetic neuropathy, where nerve damage impacts bowel function, causing bloating, irregularity, and even chronic diarrhoea. These aren’t just minor inconveniences. They affect daily life in ways that deserve more attention.

When we focus on the gut microbiome, a significant impact is seen. A balanced gut can improve insulin sensitivity and stabilise glucose levels. Patients who adopt a diet rich in prebiotics and probiotics, like fermented foods and fibre-rich meals, often report fewer digestive symptoms and more stable blood sugar levels.

Diabetes care isn’t just about managing numbers but improving lives. We can offer a more comprehensive, practical approach by prioritising gut health alongside blood sugar control.
