Memory Loss
Memory loss due to diabetes is often a result of uncontrolled blood sugar levels. High levels of
glucose in the blood can damage blood vessels in the brain, which can lead to a condition
called vascular dementia. Vascular dementia is a type of dementia that is caused by reduced
blood flow to the brain.
In addition, diabetes can also affect the functioning of the hippocampus, which is the part of
the brain responsible for forming and storing new memories. When the hippocampus is
damaged or not functioning properly, it can lead to memory problems.
