Type II Diabetes Introduction

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia). This occurs due to issues with insulin secretion, function, or both. When we eat food, it is broken down into glucose, which is essential for our body's cells to function. The pancreas secretes insulin, a hormone that helps regulate glucose metabolism in the body. Insulin triggers cells to absorb glucose and store it in the liver. If cells cannot effectively take up and use glucose, it accumulates in the blood, leading to hyperglycemia.
