Diabetes in General:
Diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by elevated levels of blood glucose, either due to insufficient insulin production, ineffective use of insulin, or both. There are primarily two types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This type usually develops during childhood or adolescence and requires lifelong insulin therapy. Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, typically develops in adulthood and is often associated with obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, and genetic factors. It results from insulin resistance and inadequate insulin production. Additionally, gestational diabetes can occur during pregnancy, increasing the risk of complications for both mother and baby. Proper management and lifestyle modifications are crucial for controlling diabetes and reducing the risk of complications.
