Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects how the body turns food into energy. In people with diabetes, the body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use insulin as well as it should. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body get glucose from food into cells for energy. Without enough insulin or cells not being able to use insulin, too much blood sugar stays in the blood. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, like heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease.
There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2.
Here are some of the factors that can increase your risk of developing diabetes:
If you have any of the risk factors for diabetes, it is important to talk to your doctor about getting tested. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent serious health problems.
There is no cure for diabetes, but it can be managed with proper treatment. The type of treatment needed depends on the type of diabetes an individual has.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease, so there is no way to prevent it. However, there are ways to manage it. People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin injections every day. They also need to monitor their blood sugar levels regularly and make sure to eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly.
Type 2 diabetes can often be prevented by making lifestyle changes, such as losing weight, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. However, if you already have type 2 diabetes, lifestyle changes may not be enough to control your blood sugar levels. In this case, you may need to take medication or insulin injections.
Gestational diabetes develops during pregnancy. It usually goes away after the baby is born, but it can increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life. If you have gestational diabetes, your doctor will likely recommend that you make lifestyle changes, such as losing weight, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. In some cases, you may also need to take medication.
No matter what the type of diabetes is, it is important to work with a doctor to create an individualized treatment plan. Here are some of the things to help manage diabetes:
If you are unsure about whether or not your symptoms require medical attention, please consult your foot doctor.

Wonderful wheelchair at a very affordable cost, all things considered
I have no meniscus in my right knee. I’ve been able to defer knee replacement by exclusively wearing these shoes as well as strengthening the muscles that support the knee.
Bought as a Christmas gift for someone with neuropathy. They put them on immediately. Veryyyyyyy comfortable
