💙 Every year on November 14, the world unites to raise awareness about Diabetes Mellitus, a chronic metabolic condition that affects millions of people of all ages.
Diabetes occurs when the body cannot properly regulate blood glucose. This happens either because the pancreas produces little or no insulin (Type 1 Diabetes), or because the body cannot use insulin effectively (Type 2 Diabetes).
During pregnancy, some women may also develop Gestational Diabetes, which requires careful monitoring for the health of both mother and baby.
Uncontrolled diabetes can gradually affect vital organs such as the heart, kidneys, eyes and nerves. However, early detection, balanced nutrition, physical activity and medical guidance can significantly reduce complications and improve quality of life.
💡 World Diabetes Day reminds us that prevention starts with understanding. Knowing the signs, checking your glucose levels and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are key steps toward long-term wellbeing.
