Diabetes – a disorder in functioning in using the digested food for growth and energy. The food we eat is broken down into glucose which is the main source of fuel for the body. After digestion, this glucose is passed into the blood stream and is utilized by the cells for growth. Insulin – a hormone produced by pancreas is necessary for the cells to use glucose. While digesting the food in stomach, pancreas releases right amount of insulin which moves glucose from blood to the cells. People with diabetes produce no or less insulin or the cells do not respond rightly to insulin due to which there is over accumulation of glucose in the blood. It is loosed through urine. And this way body looses its main source of energy.

With moderate weight loss and physical activity, one can delay or prevent the disease and return back to normal sugar levels.
