This
 video is about diabetic foot disease and why people with diabetes are 
losing their legs. There are blood vessels which carry good blood and 
ones which carry bad blood. The vessel which carries good blood is 
called artery. People with diabetes may develop blocks in the arteries 
of their legs resulting in gangrene which is death of the tissue. This 
is more common in people with diabetes, blood pressure, high cholesterol
 and in people who smoke or use tobacco in any form.
