​
It turns out there is. And it's easier than you think.
​
𝗝𝗶𝘃𝗮 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 is a company that helps people with diabetes. We know how hard it is for people to live with this disease, especially when there aren't many resources available for them. We also know how important access to information about their condition is for people who are living with it or looking after loved ones who are. That's why we've created the 𝗗𝗠 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆.
​
With 𝗗𝗠 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿, you can connect with others who have the same condition as you, get updates on research and treatment options, and share your experiences with people who understand what you're going through.

​
Well, first of all, congratulations! You're in a great place to start managing your diabetes. If you have diabetes, you must take some steps to manage your condition as soon as possible.

Diabetes is a common, severe, and chronic condition. It can lead to serious health complications if left untreated.
​
When a person with diabetes shows blood sugar level rises above normal ranges, it is known as hyperglycemia. It happens if the person with diabetes does not have enough insulin. The risk of developing diabetes is much higher for people who are obese and inactive than it is for lean, active people.
​
Diagnosis of diabetes is through several tests, including 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐠𝐥𝐮𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 and 𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝟏𝐜 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬. These tests reveal an accurate picture of your diabetes or pre-diabetes condition, and you should keep meticulous track of your blood sugar levels.
​
Diabetes can be challenging to diagnose – so complex that many people go undiagnosed. At 𝐉𝐢𝐯𝐚 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡, our doctors help find diabetes in patients of all ages, including children. We offer a wide range of services to help you live a healthier, more active life.
​
Contact us today to see if you (or your child) might be one of those people we could help through the process.

Diabetes is a chronic illness that causes problems with glucose or sugar metabolism.
​
There are three types of Diabetes: Type 1, Type 2, and Gestational Diabetes.
​
𝐓𝐲𝐩𝐞 𝟏 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐬 is when your pancreas does not produce insulin, a hormone our body needs to maintain proper blood sugar levels. Also called insulin-dependent or juvenile Diabetes, it usually develops in children, teens, and young adults but can happen at any age.
​
𝐓𝐲𝐩𝐞 𝟐 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐬 is an impairment in how the body regulates and uses sugar (glucose) as fuel. This long-term (chronic) condition results in too much sugar circulating in the bloodstream. Eventually, high blood sugar levels can lead to circulatory, nervous, and immune systems disorders.
​
𝐆𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐬 occurs when your body can't make enough insulin during pregnancy. Insulin is a hormone your pancreas produces that is key to letting blood sugar into your body's cells for energy use.
​
If you think you may have Diabetes, you must visit your doctor and get tested.
​
Your doctor will help determine which type of Diabetes you have and discuss treatment options with you.

What are some of the symptoms of diabetes?
​
It’s essential to recognize the symptoms of diabetes.
​
Diabetes is associated with a long and severe list of health issues, including heart disease and stroke, eye problems, kidney disease, and nerve damage that may reduce sensation in the feet.
​
Diabetes is “the silent killer” because they tend to develop gradually and without symptoms in most people.
​
Some people with diabetes may not know they have it until complications occur, including heart disease, kidney disease, and eye problems.
​
Diabetes can cause many specific symptoms, including:
​
1. Frequent urination
2. Increased thirst
3. Weight loss without dieting or increased appetite
4. Fatigue
5. Blurred vision
6. Irritability
7. Inability to concentrate
8. Slow healing of cuts or wounds
9. Frequent infections
​
If you have signs and symptoms of diabetes, you must see a doctor.
​
While there are different types of diabetes (type 1 and type 2), the most common diagnostic test is measuring your blood glucose level.
​
