Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, often known as juvenile diabetes, occurs in children and young people.
80 percent of persons with Type 2 diabetes are overweight, indicating that poor diet and obesity are the most likely causes.
The genetics of diabetes are still the subject of discussion. If both of your parents have diabetes, your risk is obviously greater than if only one parent has diabete. Type 2 diabetes is more strongly associated with genetic variables as well as dietary and physical inactivity.
Diabetes symptoms include unexpected weight loss, fatigue, excessive thirst or hunger, frequent urination, dry skin, slow-healing wounds, and rapid changes in vision.
You will need to work closely with your doctor to keep your blood sugar levels within safe ranges. You must modify your diet and pay strict attention to portion sizes and meal frequency. Regular exercise has been reported to help in controlling blood sugar levels. It is recommended that diabetics exercise daily for 30 to 60 minutes.
