Diabetes: Understanding and Managing the Disease Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects how your body regulates blood sugar levels. It occurs when the body either doesn't produce enough insulin, a hormone that helps glucose enter cells for energy, or when the body can't use insulin properly. This leads to a buildup of sugar in the bloodstream, which can damage organs and tissues over time.
Complications of Uncontrolled Diabetes Heart Disease Kidney Disease High blood sugar levels can damage blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. High blood sugar can damage the kidneys, leading to kidney failure. Nerve Damage Eye Damage High blood sugar can damage nerves, leading to numbness, tingling, and pain in the hands and feet. High blood sugar can damage the eyes, leading to vision loss.
