I was diagnosed with borderline diabetes last year, but I managed to bring my sugar levels back to normal. It is basically a condition where your body cannot properly process sugar, leading to high glucose in the blood. With a strict diet and daily exercise, it is highly reversible in the early stages.
Beta, this is what we commonly call the sugar disease. In this, the sugar in our blood increases because our body cannot digest it well. Avoid eating too many sweets and potatoes, and make sure to visit a local doctor who can guide you with the right medicines.
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder where the body either doesn't produce enough insulin or can't use it effectively. Just like managing my blood pressure, keeping diabetes under control requires regular monitoring and lifestyle adjustments. Make sure to consult your doctor for a proper treatment plan.
My family physician explained that diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion or action. It can lead to serious complications if neglected. Please get an HbA1c test done to check your average blood sugar levels over the last three months.
Haan, basically it is a condition where your blood sugar levels stay high because insulin is not working properly, na. It is very common these days due to bad food habits. Just meet a good doc and start working on your daily routine.
Simply put, diabetes is when your pancreas doesn't make enough insulin, or your cells become resistant to it, causing glucose to build up in your blood. It is easily managed with the right medication and diet. Please consult a doctor for a personalized plan.
I get so worried when I see my family members having sweet cravings, thinking it might be diabetes. It is a condition where blood sugar levels are elevated, which can affect our kidneys and heart if ignored. Please get a proper blood test done to be absolutely sure.
