🧠 What is the Disease?

Diabetes is a condition where your body is unable to properly control sugar levels in the blood.

Normally:

Insulin → helps use that sugar for energy

👉 In diabetes, this system fails, so sugar stays in blood.

Excess sugar & refined food intake
Lack of physical activity (sugar not used)
Abdominal fat → reduces insulin efficiency
Family history (genetic factor)

👉 It develops slowly over months or years, not suddenly.
