Diabetes

Due to our deteriorating lifestyle, our body has become home to many diseases. One of these diseases is diabetes. Diabetes may be a common disease, but once someone gets it, it does not leave him for the rest of his life. Once upon a time this disease used to happen only to people above 50 years of age, but today everyone is suffering from it. It is to be noted here that diabetes can be kept balanced if the patient takes care of his lifestyle and diet.

Before we know about the treatment of diabetes, before that it is important to know what is diabetes? When there is less access of insulin (a type of hormone) in the pancreas of the body, the level of glucose in the blood increases, such a condition is called diabetes. The function of insulin is to convert food into energy in the body and due to this hormone, the amount of sugar in the body is controlled. At the same time, when someone has diabetes, there is a problem in converting food into energy, which affects the whole body. Diabetes not only affects other parts of the body, but also causes many other diseases in the body. Diabetes can lead to pain in other parts of the body, kidney problems, poor eyesight, and even a heart attack.

There are three types of diabetes

  1. Type 1 – This is an autoimmune disorder in which beta cells are unable to make insulin. In this diabetes, the patient is given injections of insulin, so that the amount of insulin in the body is maintained properly. Children and young people are more prone to this diabetes.
  2. Type 2 – In this, the amount of insulin in the body decreases or the body is not able to use insulin properly.
  3. Gestational diabetes – This diabetes occurs during pregnancy, when the amount of sugar in the blood increases. During this time, pregnant women are at higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
