Understanding Diabetes

Did you know there are different types of diabetes? 🤔

💉 Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) – An autoimmune condition where the body attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. It’s usually diagnosed in children and young adults, and insulin therapy is required for life.

🍏 Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) – A condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin. Often related to lifestyle factors, like diet and exercise, it can be managed with medications and sometimes insulin.

🔑 Whether it's T1D or T2D, both require attention and care to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

Let’s spread awareness, stay active, eat balanced meals, and support those living with diabetes

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ Wishing you all a year filled with new beginnings, endless possibilities, and unforgettable memories. Let’s make 2025 the best one yet!
