High blood sugar has an accomplice: Elevated triglycerides, which may be a hidden cause of nerve damage in people with diabetes. In a University of Michigan study, diabetic participants whose triglyceride levels were highest had 25 per cent more nerve damage after a year than those with lower levels, regardless of either group’s glucose levels.

“High triglycerides probably leads to oxidative stress, which causes injury to motor and sensory neurons.” says study author Dr Eva Feldman. If your triglycerides are above eight millimeters per liter, swap refined carbs for a daily dose of pistachios, for their triglyceride lowering properties.
