Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects how your body processes food into energy. It is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar due to insufficient insulin production or ineffective use.
There are various types of diabetes, Type 1 (lack of insulin), Type 2 (insulin resistance) and gestational diabetes.
Type 1 Diabetes: This type of diabetes is due to destruction of β cells of the pancreas. This happens when the body’s defense system attacks itself by mistake. It is seen mostly in children and adolescents.
Type 2 Diabetes: This type of diabetes can occur due to firstly, the pancreas fails to generate sufficient insulin. Secondly, cells show reduced responsiveness to insulin, resulting in diminished sugar uptake.
This chronic condition leads to an excess of sugar circulating in the bloodstream.
This is seen mostly in adults but nowadays both type 1&2 can initiate during childhood or adulthood.
Diabetes comes with various side effects like excessive thirst, lack of energy, extreme tiredness, sudden weight loss/gain, slow-healing wounds, recurrent infections, blurred vision and some serious issues like heart disease, kidney troubles if left untreated.
