Diabetes Education
Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body needs help using food properly. This problem is related to how your body makes and uses insulin, a hormone produced in the pancreas that helps keep your blood sugar in a normal range.
Diabetes is:
- Common; about 1 in 10 people in the U.S. live with the condition
- Controllable; you can’t cure diabetes, but you can control your blood sugar levels
- Constantly changing; as a result, your care team may adjust your treatment plan
