What exactly is diabetes?
Diabetes is a prevalent, chronic disease that affects individuals of all races, ages, and genders. Diabetes UK reports that more than three million individuals in the United Kingdom have been diagnosed with diabetes. This illness may affect many more individuals who have not yet been diagnosed.
Our bodies need glucose to supply the energy required for daily life. Insulin is a hormone that permits glucose to enter the cells from the bloodstream. When glucose builds up in the circulation because the pancreas does not create enough or any insulin or the insulin is not functioning correctly, diabetes is the result.
Support to maintain health
Untreated diabetes may result in cardiovascular disease, stroke, dental issues, nerve damage, and blindness. Our care assistants at Sorted Healthcare can help you and your family manage these risks and lessen the effect of daily symptoms so that you can continue to live a normal, active life.
