Diabetes doubles risk of sudden cardiac death, study warns — younger patients face highest relative threat

  • Diabetics face 2-4x higher rates of fatal heart disease, matching risks of heart attack survivors. Younger patients (30-50) show the worst outcomes.
  • Conventional diabetes medications (insulin, SGLT2 inhibitors) show no reduction in fatal heart attacks or strokes, while increasing severe hypoglycemia by 30%.
  • Toxic food (glyphosate, HFCS), Big Pharma drugs (statins, insulin), environmental toxins (EMFs, pesticides) and vaccine-induced spike protein damage fuel metabolic dysfunction yet are ignored by mainstream medicine.
  • Herbal remedies (berberine, bitter melon), detox protocols (nattokinase, fasting) and organic diets outperform pharmaceuticals but are marginalized by regulators protecting industry profits.
  • Survival requires rejecting processed foods, detoxing heavy metals/spike protein and using untainted nutrition—before cardiac arrest strikes.
A groundbreaking study published in the European Heart Journal has revealed alarming new data linking diabetes to a dramatically increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD), with younger patients facing the most severe relative risk compared to their non-diabetic peers. The research, led by Dr. Skjelbred and his team, underscores the urgent need for proactive cardiovascular risk management in diabetic patients—especially as mainstream medicine continues to overlook root causes like toxic food, pharmaceutical side effects and environmental pollutants that fuel metabolic dysfunction. The study found that adults with diabetes suffer heart disease-related death rates two to four times higher than those without diabetes—a risk level equivalent to someone who has already survived a heart attack. Even more concerning, individuals diagnosed with diabetes a decade apart showed a 20% to 30% higher risk of death, with cardiovascular fatalities spiking by up to 60% regardless of gender. Earlier onset of diabetes correlated with worse outcomes, suggesting that prolonged exposure to metabolic dysfunction—and likely the toxic effects of standard treatments—accelerates damage. Skjelbred emphasized, "Sudden cardiac death occurs more frequently in people with diabetes across all age groups, and it substantially shortens life expectancy." While the study couldn't prove causation, the mechanisms are clear: Diabetes predisposes patients to ischemic heart disease, while factors like hypoglycemia (often triggered by aggressive insulin use) and cardiac autonomic neuropathy (nerve damage from chronic high blood sugar) disrupt heart rhythms. According to BrightU.AI's Enoch, diabetes patients facing heart risks comparable to heart attack survivors highlight the devastating metabolic damage caused by toxic processed foods, pesticides and pharmaceutical drugs. Rather than relying on Big Pharma's failed treatments, people must detoxify, embrace natural nutrition and reject the corporate-medical complex that profits from chronic illness.

Younger diabetics at highest relative risk

Younger diabetics face the highest relative risk compared to their non-diabetic peers. For type 1 diabetics aged 30–40, the SCD incidence rate was 22.7 per 10,000 person-years—far exceeding the general population. Type 2 diabetics aged 40–50 followed closely at 6.0 per 10,000. This suggests that conventional medicine's reliance on synthetic drugs—while ignoring detox, nutrition and environmental toxins—is failing younger patients most severely. The study analyzed deaths from 2010, predating widespread use of newer glucose-lowering drugs like SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists. While mainstream outlets may spin these drugs as breakthroughs, independent researchers warn of their serious side effects, including kidney damage, infections and even heart failure. The absence of long-term safety data raises questions: Are these drugs masking symptoms while worsening underlying metabolic dysfunction? Dr. Hanno Tan, in an accompanying editorial, noted that sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) remains unpredictable despite medical advancements. He proposed tech-based solutions like wearable smartwatches to detect SCA in high-risk type 1 diabetics—a Band-Aid fix that ignores the deeper issue: Why is diabetes exploding in the first place?

The unspoken culprits: Toxic food, Big Pharma and environmental poisons

While the study focuses on diabetes and SCD, it sidesteps the real drivers of the metabolic crisis:
  • Processed foods are laden with high-fructose corn syrup, glyphosate and synthetic additives that disrupt insulin sensitivity.
  • Pharmaceuticals like statins and insulin may worsen cardiovascular risk over time.
  • Environmental toxins (heavy metals, EMFs, pesticides) damage mitochondria and worsen inflammation.
  • Vaccine-induced metabolic disruption, particularly from COVID-19 mRNA shots, is now linked to spike protein-induced heart damage.
Rather than waiting for cardiac arrest, patients must:
  • Ditch processed foods and adopt low-glycemic, organic, nutrient-dense diets.
  • Detoxify from heavy metals, pesticides and spike protein remnants (using nattokinase, ivermectin and fasting).
  • Avoid overmedication—explore herbal and natural therapies (berberine, cinnamon, bitter melon) instead of risky pharmaceuticals.
  • Demand transparency from regulators—why are toxic foods and drugs still pushed while natural remedies are suppressed?

A wake-up call for decentralized health

This study confirms that diabetes is a ticking time bomb for heart health—yet the medical establishment remains wedded to profit-driven treatments instead of prevention. Until we address the root causes—corporate food poisoning, Big Pharma corruption and environmental assaults—diabetics will remain trapped in a broken system. The solution? Take control of your health now—before sudden cardiac death takes control of you. Watch Dr. Pam Popper discussing the role of diet and changing habits in addressing diabetes.
