This World Diabetes Day, 14 November, let's put well-being at the heart of diabetes care and start the change for a better diabetes life.
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that interferes with the body’s ability to convert digested food into energy and growth. When we eat the body converts our food into glucose, simple sugar that is our main source of energy. Once glucose becomes available in the bloodstream, it must enter the cells to provide this energy.
Pre-diabetes is a condition that affects millions of people around the world. In both cases glucose builds up in the bloodstream and the cells starve.
Diabetes type 1 and type 2 come from different causes: In diabetes type 1, the pancreas does not make insulin, because the body's immune system attacks the islet cells in the pancreas that make insulin. In diabetes type 2, the pancreas makes less insulin than used to, and your body becomes resistant to insulin.
