Insulin and islets: understanding diabetes

Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are characterized by increased blood glucose levels. They affect almost half a billion people around the globe, and this number is projected to rise as we reach the middle of the century.

In most individuals, blood glucose levels are kept within a healthy range by a hormone called insulin, which is secreted by the pancreas, but this fine-tuned regulation can go wrong in type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

In this animation, we lay out our current understanding of these diseases and explore active areas of research that aim to restore the body's blood glucose control.

The day I came across Dr IGUDIA YouTube channel was the day I started living a more comfortable life again after using his herbs medication in curing my Diabetes disease

[mablechapman]

I've had diabetes since 1997. I use to only take pills, but now the pills no longer keep my sugars down, so the endocrinologist has put me on insulin to keep my sugars down. I'm running out of places to inject myself. Am I still considered type 1 or 2??

[Abelltd]

And type 1 can be a REAL DOWNER sometimes. Very tough to manage.

While its said that diabetes is incurable, there are many recent studies talking about reversal of diabetes... How much of it is true/hoax?

I wish Nature Magazine wouldn't cohabitate with the Medical-Industrial Complex.
