What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is characterized by high blood sugar levels due to the body's inability to produce or properly use insulin, a hormone that helps glucose enter the cells for energy. When this process doesn't work properly, glucose builds up in the blood stream, leading to high blood sugar levels.
Types of Diabetes.
* Type 1 Diabetes: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.
* Type 2 Diabetes: A condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough insulin. Often associated with lifestyle factors such as obesity, inactivity and poor diet.
* Gestational Diabetes: Develops during pregnancy and typically resolves after Childbirth, but increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
