Diabetes is an incurable disease that occurs when your blood sugar is too high. Over time, the high glucose levels in your blood could cause other health issues, making it even more important to manage your diabetes and be proactive about your health.
There are three different types of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes means that your body does not produce insulin. Usually diagnosed as a child or young adult, people with type 1 diabetes must take insulin every day. Type 2 diabetes means that your body does not make or use insulin properly and steps must be taken to control and maintain your levels. This is the most common type of diabetes. In addition, some pregnant woman can develop gestational diabetes, which usually goes away after the baby is born. Regardless of the type, diabetes is serious and needs to be monitored, controlled, and maintained.
