What is Diabetes? Diabetes is a serious condition where the body can’t maintain healthy levels of glucose in the blood. This is due to insufficient amounts of insulin produced by the body. Insulin is a hormone that converts blood glucose into energy. So, although blood glucose is required in the body as a source of energy, prolonged high levels can lead to long-term health complications.
There are 3 types of diabetes:
Type 1 Diabetes, which has a strong
family link and cannot be prevented. Type 2 Diabetes, which is associated with lifestyle risk factors.
Gestational diabetes, which occurs
during pregnancy and goes away after giving birth. Type 2 Diabetes represents 85-90% of all cases of diabetes and is preventable. So, it is important to reduce risk factors by maintaining a healthy weight, being physically active, and following a healthy eating plan.
Ask your Advantage pharmacist how to reduce your risk factors!
