Answer # 1 #

Each kidney is made up of millions of tiny filters called nephrons. Over time, high blood sugar from diabetes can damage blood vessels in the kidneys as well as nephrons so they don't work as well as they should. Many people with diabetes also develop high blood pressure, which can damage kidneys too.
