FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

1. What is Diabetes and how does it affect the body?

Diabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are too high due to insufficient insulin or insulin resistance, affecting energy and organ health.

The most common types are Type 1, Type 2, and gestational Diabetes, each differing in how insulin is produced or used.

Diabetes can develop due to genetics, lifestyle factors, diet, obesity, and inactivity.

With early awareness, healthy habits, and proper medical care, Type 2 Diabetes can often be prevented or managed effectively.

Regular activity improves insulin sensitivity, controls blood sugar, and supports heart and overall health.

Balanced meals, consistent exercise, adequate sleep, stress management, and hydration are key for day-to-day control.

Routine medical care helps track blood sugar, adjust medications, and prevent long-term complications.

Chronic stress can raise blood sugar levels and make management harder, so relaxation and mindfulness are important.

Carbs, sugar, and processed foods can spike blood sugar, while fiber, protein, and healthy fats help keep it stable.

Eat whole foods, watch portion sizes, stay hydrated, and maintain consistent meal timings.
