FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
1. What is diabetes and why does it occur?
Diabetes is a chronic condition in which blood glucose (sugar) levels become higher than normal. It occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or cannot use insulin effectively. Insulin is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels.
2. What are the early warning signs of diabetes?
Common symptoms include frequent urination, excessive thirst, increased hunger, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, and slow wound healing. Some people may have no noticeable symptoms, especially in the early stages.
3. What are the different types of diabetes?
The main types are:
Type 1 Diabetes: The body produces little or no insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes: The body becomes resistant to insulin or does not produce enough.
Gestational Diabetes: Develops during pregnancy and usually requires monitoring and treatment.
Â
4. Can diabetes be completely cured?
Currently, there is no established cure for Type 1 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes can sometimes go into remission through significant lifestyle changes and weight management, particularly when addressed early. However, regular monitoring remains important.
5. What is the normal blood sugar level?
For most non-pregnant adults without diabetes, the usual reference levels are:
Fasting blood sugar: 70–99 mg/dL.
Two hours after meals: Less than 140 mg/dL.
HbA1c: Below 5.7%.
People with diabetes may have different individualized treatment targets.
6. How often should diabetic patients check their blood sugar?
Testing frequency depends on the type of diabetes, medication, insulin use, and blood sugar control. Some patients may need daily monitoring, while others may require periodic testing as advised by their doctor.
7. Can diabetes be controlled without medication?
Some people with early Type 2 diabetes may achieve good blood sugar control through a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight management. However, many patients need medication or insulin. Never stop prescribed medicines without consulting your doctor.
8. What foods should diabetic patients avoid?
Diabetic patients should limit sugary drinks, sweets, refined carbohydrates, processed foods, and excessive portions of high-calorie foods. A balanced diet containing vegetables, whole grains, pulses, lean proteins, and healthy fats can support blood sugar management.
9. Can diabetes affect the heart, kidneys, and eyes?
Yes. Uncontrolled diabetes can increase the risk of heart disease, kidney damage, nerve problems, and diabetic eye disease. Regular health check-ups and good blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol control help reduce these risks.
10. How can I prevent or reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes?
You can reduce your risk by maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, avoiding tobacco, getting adequate sleep, and undergoing regular blood sugar screening, especially if you have a family history of diabetes.
