    Insulin is crucial for enabling glucose to enter cells and be used for energy, but diabetes prevents proper glucose metabolism and insulin use. For those with type 1 diabetes, the pancreas fails to produce insulin, causing blood glucose levels to rise. Type 2 diabetics become resistant to insulin's effects, so their pancreas secretes less than needed and glucose builds up in the bloodstream for both types of diabetes, posing serious health risks.

    The effects of diabetes

    When a person has a condition, their bodies are unable to make enough

    insulin or utilise it appropriately. As a result, glucose metabolism necessitates

    the production of insulin by a person's pancreas. Insulin is crucial for enabling

    glucose into body cells, and the body uses glucose for energy. Insulin is

    released by the pancreas in reaction to the glucose. The amount of glucose in

    your bloodstream decreases as glucose enters your cells.

    When a person has type 1 diabetes, their pancreas fails to produce insulin,

    causing glucose to build up in their bloodstream. Glucose cannot enter a

    person's cells without the help of insulin. Because the body is resistant to the

    effects of insulin, a person with type 2 diabetes' pancreas secretes less insulin

    than the body requires. Glucose cannot be used for energy in either kind of

    diabetes, so it builds up in the bloodstream, posing a major health risk.
