Overview

Diabetes is a chronic health condition characterized by high levels of glucose in the blood. It is caused by the body's inability to produce or properly use insulin, a hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, while Type 2 diabetes is caused by a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors such as obesity and lack of physical activity. The effects of diabetes can be serious and include damage to the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, eyes, and nerves. It can also lead to other health problems such as cardiovascular disease, blindness, kidney failure, and amputations. Solutions for diabetes include lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight. Medications such as insulin and oral drugs can also be used to manage blood sugar levels. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and yearly check-ups are important for people with diabetes to manage their condition effectively. Additionally, research is ongoing to develop new treatments and technologies to improve the management and prevention of diabetes.
