Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood are too high.

​

Blood glucose levels are normally regulated by the hormone insulin, which is made by the pancreas. Diabetes occurs when there is a problem with this hormone and how it works in the body.

​

When it comes to managing diabetes, it’s crucial to manage your weight and to be physically active, in addition to controlling your blood glucose levels. It’s also important to pay attention to the balance of your diet.
