Bloodglucose monitoring
Diabetes is a chronic disease in which the body does not make, or does not properly use, insulin. Insulin is the hormone that helps your body use the energy from sugar, starches and other foods. The result is that your body doesn't get the energy it needs, and unmetabolized glucose (undigested sugar), builds up in your blood causing damage to the body and its systems. Glucose is a form of sugar produced when the body digests carbohydrates (sugars and starches). Glucose is the body's major fuel for the energy it needs. When insulin is absent or ineffective, the blood glucose (blood sugar) level increases. High blood glucose levels can lead to both short and long-term problems.There are different kinds of diabetes, each with slightly varying symptoms and treatments. The principal forms are Type 1 and Type 2. Related conditions considered to be "prediabetes" include impaired glucose tolerance and impaired fasting glucose. Pregnant women may develop gestational diabetes. Women who already have diabetes may also have certain condition-related concerns during pregnancy with diabetes.
