PEOPLE with diabetes suffer from a condition where the body is unable to make enough insulin or effectively use it to process the glucose or sugar from food consumed and use it for energy.

This results in a buildup of glucose in the bloodstream, causing blood sugar levels to rise. Poorly controlled diabetes can cause serious damage to patients' organs and tissues over time and can lead to more life-threatening health complications such as cardiovascular diseases.

Lifestyle change is encouraged for diabetics to help avoid serious health complications. CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
