Definition

Used on its own, the term diabetes generally refers to diabetes mellitus, a metabolic pathology caused by a defect in the secretion and / or action of insulin, a key hormone that allows glucose to pass from the blood to the cells. The accumulation of this sugar in the blood determines a condition known as hyperglycemia, which is associated with the classic symptoms of diabetes.

Further indications

The key symptoms of untreated diabetes are thirst, excessive production of urine and weight loss. In addition to those already mentioned, the patient suffering from diabetes often tends to suffer from urinary and skin infections. All these symptoms, however, appear only when the disease is at an advanced stage; in many cases, the appearance of true diabetes is preceded by a potentially reversible phase called prediabetes. Furthermore, the sooner one becomes aware of the disease and the better the prevention of its innumerable complications. For this reason it is essential to associate an adequate lifestyle (see diet and diabetes) with periodic blood glucose checks, especially after the age of 40 or earlier if you have family members with diabetes or more risk factors for the disease (overweight, sedentary lifestyle, polycystic ovary, dyslipidemia). Diabetes that you buy in the first years of life or adolescence is generally more serious and less common than that which affects the elderly or middle-aged individuals; the first arises suddenly, while the symptoms of the second appear slowly and progressively
