What is Diabetes?

When you eat it is digested and broken down into glucose (sugar). In this form it travels arund to feed all the cells in the body thruogh the bloodsteram. Glucose can not get into your cells unless insulin is there to let it in. Without insulin the glucose stays in the bloodstream. Each time you eat more glucose goes into your bloodstream. High levels of blood glucose or blood sugar is the sign that you have diabetes.
