Diabetes Types and Symptoms

Diabetes Types and Symptoms

Diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by high levels of sugar (glucose) in the blood. The two main types of diabetes are type 1 and type 2.

 Type 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes, is caused by the body's inability to produce insulin. 


Type 2 diabetes is caused by the body's inability to properly use insulin. Symptoms of diabetes include increased thirst and urination, fatigue, and blurred vision.

It can lead to serious complications if left untreated, such as heart disease, nerve damage, and kidney damage.
