Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when the body either does not produce enough insulin or fails to utilize it effectively, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, plays a vital role in storing sugar and fat from food. Uncontrolled diabetes can result in serious complications affecting the heart, kidneys, nerves, and eyes. Types of Diabetes are: 

Type 1 Diabetes:

• Known as insulin-dependent diabetes or juvenile diabetes. 
• Occurs when the immune system attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. 
• Requires lifelong insulin therapy. 
• Often diagnosed in childhood or adolescence. 

Type 2 Diabetes:

• The most common form of diabetes. 
• Results from insulin resistance or reduced insulin production. 
• Often linked to obesity and sedentary lifestyles. 
• Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes, diet, exercise, and medication. 

Gestational Diabetes:

• Occurs during pregnancy. 
• Requires regular blood sugar monitoring, balanced nutrition, and exercise. 
• Important for protecting the health of both mother and baby. 

Common Symptoms of Diabetes:

• Increased Thirst and Hunger: Known as polydipsia and polyphagia. 
• Frequent Urination: Also referred to as polyuria. 
• Unexplained Weight Loss: Especially in Type 1 diabetes. 
• Fatigue and Weakness 
• Blurred Vision 

If left unmanaged, diabetes can lead to severe complications like diabetic neuropathy, diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetic foot ulcers.
