How does diabetes affect the level of glucose in the blood and in body cells?
The pancreas has cells which produce insulin. Insulin allows the body's cells to absorb glucose from the bloodstream. Diabetes is an auto-immune disease which destroys the insulin producing cells in the pancreas. Without insulin, the body cannot move glucose from the blood stream into cells, where it is needed to produce energy. The result is that glucose builds up in the bloodstream. This is fatal if untreated. NB: there are 2 main types of diabetes. Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, is of unknown origin and requires regular injections of insulin. Type 2 diabetes is lifestyle related and is caused by such factors as being overweight and unfit.
