Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or is unable to use the insulin it produces. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body regulate blood sugar levels. When the body is unable to regulate blood sugar levels, it can lead to serious health problems.
There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2.
Type 1 diabetes
is an autoimmune disorder in which the body does not produce enough insulin. This type of diabetes usually develops in childhood or adolescence.
Type 2 diabetes
is a metabolic disorder in which the body is unable to use the insulin it produces. This type of diabetes usually develops in adulthood.
