Diabetes is a chronic medical condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Normally, when you eat, your body breaks down food into sugar (glucose), and insulin helps move that sugar from your bloodstream into your cells to be used as energy. In diabetes, the body either doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use it properly, leading to high levels of glucose in the blood.
Common symptoms include frequent urination, excessive thirst, fatigue, blurry vision, and unexplained weight loss. If you experience these symptoms, consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis.
While Type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented, Type 2 diabetes risk can be reduced with a healthy diet, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and routine blood sugar monitoring.
The frequency depends on your treatment plan. For those on insulin, monitoring multiple times daily is common. Others may need to check once or twice daily or less frequently, as advised by a healthcare provider.
We recommend using a glucometer or continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device. The choice depends on your preferences and medical needs. Visit our products section for trusted options.
