🩸 Understanding Diabetes: A Silent but Manageable Condition.
Diabetes is one of the most common long-term health conditions in the world today, yet many people still do not fully understand it. It happens when the body cannot make enough insulin or cannot use it properly. Insulin is the hormone that helps move sugar (glucose) from the food we eat into the body’s cells for energy. When this process doesn’t work well, sugar builds up in the blood leading to high blood glucose levels, known as diabetes.
⚠️ Common Signs and Symptoms
Frequent urination
Excessive thirst or hunger
Unexplained weight loss
Constant tiredness or fatigue
Blurred vision
Slow-healing wounds
If you notice these signs, it’s important to check your blood sugar levels. Early detection can prevent complications such as heart disease, kidney failure, and vision problems.
🍎 Prevention and Management: Diabetes can be prevented or effectively managed through:
Healthy eating
Regular exercise
Routine medical check-up
Medication adherence
Education
