Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterised by elevated blood sugar (glucose) levels, resulting from problems with the production or function of insulin, the hormone that regulates glucose metabolism. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1, associated with autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing cells, and type 2, most commonly due to insulin resistance and lifestyle. If left untreated, diabetes can lead to serious complications such as heart disease, kidney failure and vision loss. Fortunately, the right strategy for managing diabetes allows you not only to control the disease, but also to live a full and healthy life. In this article, we will discuss the key methods for managing diabetes - from diet and physical activity to education and emotional support. We look forward to reading it!
