In Summary


    Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels, which can lead to serious health complications if not managed properly.

    In diabetes, either the pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin, or the body's cells don't respond to insulin properly, leading to a buildup of glucose in the blood. 

    Lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, and engaging in regular physical activity, can help prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes.
