Worsening of Diabetes

Diabetes affects insulin production or usage, leading to health complications. Types include autoimmune Type 1 and insulin resistance-based Type 2. Global diabetes cases are projected to rise. Managing diabetes prevents complications like heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and nerve damage. Risk factors include inactivity, poor diet, and obesity.

Worsening of diabetes

Diabetes progresses over time, worsened by poor management, age, duration of diabetes, genetics, and unhealthy lifestyle factors. HbA1c, a laboratory blood test that measures average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, is critical in managing diabetes and allows healthcare providers to monitor the effectiveness of treatments. The American Diabetes Association recommends an HbA1c goal of less than 7% for most people with diabetes.
