Diabetes Management
What is Diabetes?
- Diabetes is a disorder in which blood glucose levels are above normal.
- Most of the food we eat turns into glucose, or sugar, for our bodies to use for energy.
- The pancreas an organ that lies near the stomach makes a hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cell of our bodies.
- When you have diabetes, your body either doesn’t make insulin or can’t use its own insulin as well as it should.
- This causes sugar to build up in the blood.
- Diabetes is a silent killer marked by a spike in blood glucose levels.
