When you eat, your body breaks down most of your food into sugar (glucose) and releases it into your bloodstream. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn\u2019t make enough insulin (a hormone that helps sugar enter your cells for energy), or it can\u2019t use insulin as well as it should. This causes too much sugar to stay in your blood, which over time can lead to serious health problems, including heart disease, vision loss, and kidney issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"894\" data-end=\"921\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">There are two main types:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"1198\">\n<li data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"1025\">\n<p data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"1025\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"944\">Type 1 Diabetes:<\/strong> The body does not make insulin (usually diagnosed in children and young adults).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1026\" data-end=\"1198\">\n<p data-start=\"1028\" data-end=\"1198\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong data-start=\"1028\" data-end=\"1048\">Type 2 Diabetes:<\/strong> The body doesn\u2019t use insulin well and can\u2019t keep blood sugar at normal levels (most common in adults, but also rising among young people in the USA).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1205\" data-end=\"1277\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong data-start=\"1209\" data-end=\"1277\">How to Manage Diabetes at Home: Safe Remedies and Lifestyle Tips<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1279\" data-end=\"1570\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Managing diabetes doesn\u2019t have to be overwhelming.
