Understanding Diabetes: What You Can Control, and What You Canât.
Diabetes doesnât just happen overnight. Itâs the result of complex interactions between your lifestyle, your body, and factors beyond your control.
But hereâs the empowering truth: even when some causes are beyond your control, management is always within your reach.
Triggers/Risk Factors You Can Influence:
đŹ High sugar intake
đââď¸ Lack of physical activity
âď¸ Excess weight
đ° Chronic stress
Root Causes Beyond Your Control:
𤰠Pregnancy hormones (gestational diabetes)
đĄď¸ Immune conditions (Type 1 diabetes)
đ§Ź Genetics and family history
