At Durga Nursing Home & Research Centre, Balasore, we believe that awareness is the first step toward prevention.
On this day, we encourage everyone to learn, test, and take control of their health — because diabetes can be managed effectively with the right guidance. 🌿
👩⚕️ Understanding Diabetes:
Diabetes occurs when the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar levels. Over time, uncontrolled diabetes can affect the heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves.
🩺 Types of Diabetes:
1️⃣ Type 1 Diabetes: Usually seen in younger individuals, where the body stops producing insulin.
2️⃣ Type 2 Diabetes: More common in adults; often linked to lifestyle, diet, and inactivity.
3️⃣ Gestational Diabetes: Occurs during pregnancy and needs special care to ensure both mother and baby’s well-being.
