Type II Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the way your body metabolizes sugar (glucose). Unlike Type I Diabetes, where the body produces little or no insulin, individuals with Type II Diabetes often produce insulin but their cells become resistant to it. This can lead to elevated blood sugar levels, which can cause various health complications over time.
Managing Type II Diabetes typically involves lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and monitoring blood sugar levels. In some cases, medication may be necessary to help control blood sugar levels and prevent complications like heart disease and nerve damage.
