Magnesium deficiency creates a vicious cycle among diabetics - low intake increases diabetes risk, while diabetes increases magnesium loss through urination, leading to poorer glycemic control.

Metformin, the most prescribed diabetes medication, depletes vitamin B12 levels by interfering with B12 absorption, which can lead to nerve damage, numbness, and fatigue.
