Type II Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Type II Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic illness in which the body either produces insufficient insulin or fails to use insulin efficiently. In contract to Type I Diabetes Mellitus, Type II Diabetes Mellitus affects adults, although due to an increase in obesity, more and more cases are being identified in children and teenagers. Increased thirst, frequent urination, exhaustion, and weight loss are typical signs of type 2 diabetes. Eating a balanced diet, exercising frequently, and maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent or manage type II diabetes. Medication such as injectable insulin or oral hypoglycemics may occasionally be required to regulate blood sugar levels in people with Type II Diabetes.
