Is diabetes considered a disease and is it curable?

Diabetes is a chronic disease, is a genetic or irregular life caused by the pancreas insulin secretion is not normal, there is nothing in itself, just complications are more troublesome, as long as the control of good diet, regular exercise, reasonable use of medication, there is no nothing, do not believe in what the cure for diabetes, and now, in addition to medical transplants can be basically cured, the drug can only control.

Thanks for the invite!

I am an attending physician at a tertiary care hospital and can give you the most professional answers.

Diabetes is of course a disease, and a chronic one at that, as there is currently no cure for diabetes, and only glucose-lowering drugs and insulin can be used to keep a diabetic's blood sugar at a manageable level.

Diabetic patients are generally categorized into 2 main groups: type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Type 1 has an early age of onset, is an absolute insulin deficiency, and must be treated with exogenous insulin, which has recently seen international success with gene therapy, but is still not widely available.

Type 2 diabetes is a relative lack of insulin, or insulin resistance due to excess weight, requiring dietary control, weight loss to control weight, and diabetes medication or insulin for treatment.

Although diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease, if you do not standardize your treatment properly and your blood glucose is not well controlled, many other very serious and fatal diseases may come to you, such as acute myocardial infarction, diabetic nephropathy and renal failure, diabetic ketoacidosis, diabetic foot disease, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy and so on.

That's why diabetes is not only a chronic disease, but it can easily lead to very serious problems in the body if not treated properly and taken seriously.

I'm a medical and health science expert, follow me if it helps, I have a lot of great science articles on my headline, thanks!

Of course it counts, it's immune dysfunction. You get it and you're on medication for life, and your life is very restricted.

Diabetes is definitely considered a disease, but don't be afraid if you have it. The first thing is to eat less starch and calorie high food, staple food never eat full, as far as possible to roughage. The second is more exercise, starting from walking, get used to speed up, and then become jogging, every day after eating dinner half an hour after insisting on running for half an hour, and then do a hundred deep squats. Adhere to six months, blood sugar can be well controlled.

It is diffuse and must be taken seriously, diabetes is not scary, what one doctor said, diabetes is not a disease, step away and take the proper medication.

Diabetes is known as the cancer that doesn't die, my parents have high blood sugar now, and they have to pay more attention to the dietary aspects of the disease, you can't just eat whatever you want, this is very difficult

If diabetes wasn't a disease, I'm afraid there would be no diseases! Diabetes itself is not scary, but the complications are extremely scary, just as scary as cancer. If diabetes develops, the end is no use regretting, waiting for death! Kidney failure, coronary heart disease, heart attack, cerebral infarction, blindness, amputation, any complication is bad enough! So diabetes must be highly attention, strict control of blood sugar, or no good fruit to eat!

It must be treated.

Yes, there have been no cured cases so far.

Of course it is a disease! It's impossible to cure, only to control the disease, i.e. lower the blood sugar.
