About Diabetes

Diabetes, one of the most common chronic diseases that we treat, is a metabolic condition with several types.


 

Diabetes increases the amount of glucose, or sugar, in your blood, which can have detrimental effects on your organs over time. Insulin, a hormone, normally manages glucose levels. With diabetes, you either don’t make insulin, or your body can’t use it effectively to control your blood sugar.
