What is diabetes mellitus, and how is it managed through lifestyle and medication? - #14749
I recently learned about diabetes mellitus, and I want to understand more about what it is and how it affects the body. I know it has to do with insulin and blood sugar levels, but I don’t fully understand how it develops or how it’s managed. What is diabetes mellitus, and what are the differences between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes? How does the body’s inability to produce or use insulin affect blood sugar levels, and what complications can arise if left untreated? I also want to know how diabetes mellitus is managed. Do people with diabetes need to make drastic lifestyle changes, like altering their diet and exercise habits, or is medication enough to control the condition? Are there natural remedies or Ayurvedic treatments that can complement conventional treatments for blood sugar control? If anyone has diabetes, what changes did you make to manage the condition? Did you find a particular treatment or lifestyle habit that helped stabilize your blood sugar levels?
