What is "Diabesity"?
Diabesity - The connection between diabetes and obesity.
From obesity to diabetes
"Diabesity" is a term that refers to the correlation of diabetes and obesity in a person. It describes the condition in which increased body mass leads to an increased risk of developing diabetes mellitus. Obesity can lead to insulin resistance, which in turn causes the body to be unable to effectively process glucose (sugar) in the blood. As a result, diabetes eventually develops.
Diabesity has become a major global health problem, affecting people all over the world but especially in Europe and the USA. The condition is caused by a combination of factors, including an unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, genetic predisposition and environmental factors.
Treatment of diabetes and diabesity
Treatment of diabesity usually involves a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, medications and other therapeutic measures to control blood glucose and body weight and reduce the risk of complications. Early diagnosis and treatment of diabesity is critical to improving the affected person's quality of life and reducing the risk of serious complications such as heart disease, kidney failure and vision loss..
