IMPACT OF DIABETES ON LIFE ACTIVITIES

Diabetes is a disease characterized by the inability of glucose, the main source of energy, to enter the cells, and metabolic processes in the body begin to malfunction. As a result, insulin levels decrease and blood sugar increases. In diabetes, the sugar content in the blood increases sharply, the urine contains sugar content, thirst, weight loss, weakness, body itching and other symptoms are observed. The type of the disease is hereditary or acquired in life, as well as insulin-dependent (type 1 diabetes) and non-insulin-dependent (type 2 diabetes). Type 1 diabetes often occurs in adolescence. In this case, the cells of the pancreas cannot produce insulin in the patient's body, and in their treatment, insulin preparations are used to reduce the amount of sugar. In type 2 diabetes, insulin production from the pancreatic islet cells is preserved, with insulin levels in the blood at or slightly above normal.
