Diabetes is a disease in which the blood sugar level increases in the body. This is a serious health problem, which can have many serious consequences if not treated in time. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 77 million people in India are suffering from diabetes whose age is more than 18 years. Therefore, it is important to understand the symptoms of diabetes, but let’s first understand the type of diabetes.
Types of diabetes
There are two types of Diabetes:
Type 1 Diabetes: In this type of diabetes, the body is unable to produce a hormone called insulin, which increases the blood sugar level.
Type 2 Diabetes: In this type of diabetes, the body produces insulin, but the body is not able to use it properly, which increases the blood sugar level.
