Diabetes is a disease which can be developed by anyone whose pancreas start functioning improperly & stops secreting hormones that generates Insulin. So, the diabetes is caused when either the insulin is not produced or its not properly utilized by the cells leading in higher glucose level which is termed as Diabetes.

There are three types of diabetes, namely type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. When the insulin producing cells in the pancreas are damaged, it leads to type 1 diabetes due to which insulin is lost in the hormones. This is because the cells in the pancreas are protected as well as destroyed by the hormones of the body. Another is type 2 diabetes which is developed in the human body when the insulin required to regulate the sugar or glucose level in the blood is less or insufficient. Type 2 diabetes may also be developed because of inefficient use of this insulin. Type 2 diabetes is developed due to obesity or overweight. Another is gestational diabetes which develops in women when they are pregnant.

Common symptoms of diabetes includes but are not limited to excessive thirst , excessive urination increase in the fluid intake , hungriness’ , vomiting , tiredness restless behaviors , irritation etc.
