What is Diabetes Mellitus?
Generally known as diabetes, diabetes mellitus is the condition in which your body fails to maintain your blood sugar levels properly. Normally, when you eat food, especially carb, your body breaks it down into sugar glucose, a form of sugar, to provide energy for your cells. In this respect, though, a hormone named insulin, which is produced in the pancreas, helps glucose penetrate into your cells.
Excess sugars in your blood are likely to cause health complications if not well managed over time, including harming your heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves. Management of diabetes often includes a regulation of the blood sugar levels with diet, exercise, and medication.
What are types of Diabetes Mellitus?
There are three major kinds of Diabetes Mellitus, which might induce the other two, but they all have something alike; namely, high blood sugar.
- Type 1 Diabetes: At this point, your body immune system starts attacking some of the cells that are making insulin in the pancreas. Consequently, glucose cannot be introduced into cells without insulin; thus, it accumulates in the blood. Those with Type 1 will be required to be on insulin injections every day as their body stops its manufacture. It typically occurs at onset of the disease in children or a young adult but can start at any age.
- Type 2 Diabetes: It is the most common. It develops gradually. With type 2 diabetes, the body either doesn’t make enough insulin or the cells are insensitive to it. Glucose cannot enter the cells and glucose levels become high. Type 2 often comes from lifestyle habits that contribute to being overweight, lack of physical activity, or other things. It’s often treated with lifestyle changes, medication, and sometimes insulin.
- Gestational Diabetes: This type develops during pregnancy. Hormones produced by the placenta can cause the mother’s body to become less responsive to insulin, increasing blood sugar. While it tends to resolve after delivery, gestational diabetes can put the risk for Type 2 diabetes in both the mother and the child.
In any case, controlling blood sugar is the best route to staying healthy and preventing complications.
