November 14th isn't just any ordinary day here at Med Lab Supply -it's dedicated to raising awareness about a silent yet all too common illness – diabetes.
World Diabetes Day serves as a platform to educate, advocate, and inspire those living with diabetes and those whose loved ones, friends, and neighbors have diabetes.
Understanding Diabetes - The Difference Between Type 1 and Type 2
Diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by the body's inability to regulate blood sugar levels effectively. There are primarily two types: Type 1 and Type 2.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.
Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, is often linked to lifestyle factors, such as poor diet and lack of exercise.
The consequences of unmanaged diabetes can be dangerous, to say the least – heart disease, kidney failure, vision loss, and even amputation. Living with diabetes is a daily challenge requiring vigilance over blood sugar levels, insulin injections, dietary restrictions, and lifestyle adjustments.
Innovations such as glucose meters, insulin pumps, continuous glucose monitors, and insulin pens have revolutionized diabetes management, empowering individuals to take control of their diabetes and lead more active, healthy lives.
