Clinical Overview
Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot effectively use it. Managing blood sugar is vital for long-term health.
Key Symptoms
Increased thirst, frequent urination (especially at night), extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, and slow-healing sores.
Treatment Options
Management includes a combination of insulin, oral medication, and blood sugar monitoring. Consultation with an Endocrinologist is essential to prevent kidney or heart complications.
Prevention & Lifestyle
Maintain a healthy weight, engage in 30 minutes of daily physical activity, choose high-fiber foods, and strictly limit sugar and refined carbohydrate intake.
