Diabetes is a disease where the body doesn't produce any/enough in History sulin, the hormone necessary to break down sugar and convert it into energy. This makes the sugar (glucose) stay in the blood, causing higher blood glucose (glycaemia) levels.

Also, in type II diabetes, the body produces insulin, but the cell isn't able to convert sugar into energy causing high blood glucose levels. Type II is managed by diet and insulin therapy.
