What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a condition in which your body cannot properly use or make enough insulin, leading to high sugar levels in the blood.
If not controlled, it can affect your heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, and overall health.
Types of Diabetes
Type 1 Diabetes
Usually starts in childhood or young age. The body makes little or no insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes
More common in adults, often linked to lifestyle, weight, and family history.
Gestational Diabetes
Diabetes that appears during pregnancy.
Other Types
Rare forms caused by genetic or hormonal problems.
