There are a few causes of diabetes which include:
- Breed predispositionÂ
- Being inactive
- Lack of Omega 3 oils
-
Chronic inflammation stemming from diseases such as IBD, pancreatitis, or skin allergies
- Use of medications such as steroids long term
- Diets high in carbohydrates
Most of the reasons above can be linked to a kibble fed diet....we know that kibble is more high in carbohydrates compared to a raw diet. Diabetes is characterized by having too much sugar in the bloodstream. Carbohydrates create sugar (glucose.) Dogs are more than capable of producing all the glucose that their body needs without any dietary carbs whatsoever.
