    What is Diabetes?
    Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too
    high. Blood glucose is your main source of energy and comes from the food you
    eat. Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, helps glucose from food get into your
    cells to be used for energy. Sometimes your body doesn’t make enough—or any—insulin
    or doesn’t use insulin well. Glucose then stays in your blood and doesn’t reach your cells.

    Over time, having too much glucose in your blood can cause health problems. Although
    diabetes has no cure, you can take steps to manage your diabetes and stay healthy.

    Sometimes people call diabetes “a touch of sugar” or “borderline diabetes.” These terms
    suggest that someone doesn’t really have diabetes or has a less serious case, but every
    case of diabetes is serious.

    What are the different types of diabetes?


    The most common types of diabetes are type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes.

    Type 1 diabetes
    If you have type 1 diabetes, your body does not make insulin. Your immune
    system attacks and destroys the cells in your pancreas that make insulin. Type 1 diabetes
    is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, although it can appear at any age.
    People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin every day to stay alive.

    Type 2 diabetes
    If you have type 2 diabetes, your body does not make or use insulin well. You can
    develop type 2 diabetes at any age, even during childhood. However, this type of
    diabetes occurs most often in middle-aged and older people. Type 2 is the most common
    type of diabetes.

    Gestational diabetes
    Gestational diabetes develops in some women when they are pregnant. Most of the time,
    this type of diabetes goes away after the baby is born. However, if you’ve had gestational
    diabetes, you have a greater chance of developing type 2 diabetes later in life. Sometimes
    diabetes diagnosed during pregnancy is actually type 2 diabetes.
    Other types of diabetes
    Less common types include monogenic diabetes, which is an inherited form of diabetes,
    and cystic fibrosis-related diabetes

    How common is diabetes?


    As of 2015, 30.3 million people in the United States, or 9.4 percent of the population,
    had diabetes. More than 1 in 4 of them didn’t know they had the disease. Diabetes
    affects 1 in 4 people over the age of 65. About 90-95 percent of cases in adults are type 2
    diabetes.1

    Who is more likely to develop type 2


    diabetes?
    You are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes if you are age 45 or older, have a family
    history of diabetes, or are overweight. Physical inactivity, race, and certain health
    problems such as high blood pressure also affect your chance of developing type 2
    diabetes. You are also more likely to develop type 2 diabetes if you have prediabetes or
    had gestational diabetes when you were pregnant. Learn more about risk factors for type
    2 diabetes.
