Get answers to your

questions

The aim of this booklet is to:

?help answer your questions about diabetes; ?explain the different types ofdiabetes; and ?outline how you caneffectively manage yourdiabetes.

How does someone

get diabetes?

You develop diabetes when

your body can't use glucose (sugar) properly. Instead of burning up the sugar through your everyday activities, the average amount of sugar in your blood rises.

What are the

complications of diabetes?

If this abnormally high sugar

level is not treated it can harm different parts of the body. The complications diabetes can cause include damage to: ?the eyes; ?kidneys; ?heart; ?blood vessels; and ?nerves.

If diabetes is detected early, it

can be treated and the risk of developing serious problems can be greatly reduced.

How many people in

Ireland have diabetes?

It is estimated that 200,000

people in the Republic of Ireland have diabetes. This number is expected to increase because our population is growing and 4 ageing, and obesity rates are rising. If you are older and overweight, you are at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

What is diabetes?

Diabetes is a condition that

makes it difficult for the body to use the glucose (sugar) in the blood. The body normally produces a hormone called insulin. Insulin is produced by the pancreas. The pancreas is an organ found in the tummy area quite close to the stomach. Insulin allows the glucose in our food to be taken from the blood and used by the body for energy. ?People with diabetes either don't have enough insulin or the insulin that their pancreas produces does not work effectively.

This means the body cannot

move the glucose out of theblood, so the sugar levels in the blood remain high.

This extra glucose in the blood

causes significant problems for the body's functions.
