Diabetes
The number of diabetes patients is increasing day by day all over the world. About 537 million people worldwide, between the ages of 20-79, all suffer from diabetes. (As per IDF Diabetes Atlas 10th edition 2021 data).
Every seven seconds a person in the world is diagnosed with diabetes. A survey by the National Population Research and Training Institute (NIPORT) showed that the total number of people with diabetes in Bangladesh is 10 million.
Among them, the number of 18-34 years old is 26 lakh and the number of people above 35 years old is 84 lakh. Diabetes is a chronic disease. Every year more than 1 million people worldwide die from this disease.
What is diabetes ?
Diabetes is a type of metabolic disorder. In this case, the body cannot produce and use enough insulin. In many cases, insulin is completely lost.
After eating any food, our body breaks down the sugars in that food into sugar (glucose). A hormone called insulin, released from the pancreas, tells the body’s cells to take up sugar. This sugar acts as fuel or energy for the body.
Diabetes occurs when the body cannot produce insulin or it does not work properly. As a result, sugar starts to accumulate in the blood.
