Diabetes is a long-term condition in which the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar (glucose). This happens when the body produces too little insulin or cannot use it effectively. If left unmanaged, diabetes can affect the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, and overall health.
With early diagnosis, healthy lifestyle changes, and proper medical care, diabetes can be managed successfully.

Type 1 Diabetes
The body produces little or no insulin. Usually diagnosed in children and young adults.
