Diabetes is the condition in which the body does not properly process food for use as energy. Most of the food you eat is turned into glucose,( or sugar) for your bodies to use for energy. Your body needs hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cells of your bodies which is done by the pancreas, an organa in the body.  Diabetes is also a condition associated with abnormally high levels of glucose( sugar) in the blood. Absence or insufficient production of insulin, or an inability of the body to properly use insulin causes diabetes.

If left untreated long time, high sugar levels ( which is called Diabetics )  in your blood can seriously damage parts of your body, including your eyes, heart and feet. But with the right treatment and care, you can live well with diabetes and reduce the risk of developing them.

Most common symptom of diabetes is feeling very tired. There might be other symptoms including feeling thirsty than normal, going to toilet a lot and loosing weight. If you have these symptoms you are strongly recommended for medical advice.

Type 2 diabetes is the condition that causes too much sugar in your blood and it could cause serious health problems if not treated.

Type 1 Diabetics is very serious, although it is not common like Type 2 diabetics. Type 1 Diabetics has nothing to do with lifestyle or diet but it just happens. Still, no exact reason for that has been found though there are various researches ongoing.  When you have type 1 diabetics, your body attacks the cells in your pancreas that make insulin so you cannot produce any insulin at all.

If you get Type 1 Diabetics you need to get Insulin by injecting into the body or use an insulin pump which gives a constant supply of insulin then that insulin controls your sugar level.

Some people live without knowing that they have Diabetics. Some people diagnose it very late and might take up to 10 years to know that they have it.
