🩸 What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar—an essential energy source for our cells.
🔹 Type 1 diabetes: The body produces little or no insulin.
🔹 Type 2 diabetes: The body produces insulin but can’t use it effectively.
When blood sugar remains high over time, it can lead to serious complications:
❤️ Cardiovascular disease
🩺 Kidney damage
🧠 Nerve damage
👁 Vision problems
🌍 With millions affected worldwide, diabetes is one of the biggest public health challenges of our time.
