Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 Diabetes is mainly caused by the poor lifestyle choices made by someone. These lifestyle choices are very important in order to prevent or condone diabetes. Medicine is ususally prescribed in order to speed up or slow down the production of insulin.

With type two diabetes most patients take oral medication. Such medications will work together to regulate the production of insulin in your body. Exercise also has a huge role while trying to lose weight with diabetes. Without proper exercise your diabetes could worsen. Diets are also another big part of losing weight, if you don't watch what you eat, how you eat, and even when you eat, then you can gain weight and the diabetes could become even more severe. Living a healthy life may increase your chances of getting rid of diabetes.

Symptoms

Prevention

There are many symptoms when it comes to diabetes, some of the most well known are increased urination caused by the need to drink more water, the rapid gaining of weight, eye sight loss, and even poor circulation in the feet. These symptoms are caused by the body working improperly because of the weight a person has gained. Not all people who gain weight are diabetic, but that may mean you need to take better care of yourself before the disease kicks in.
