About the disease & condition

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects how the body regulates blood sugar (glucose). It occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or cannot use insulin effectively. As a result, glucose builds up in the blood, leading to health problems over time. There are different types of diabetes, including Type 1 and Type 2. With proper management, healthy lifestyle choices, and medical care, people with diabetes can live healthy and active lives.
