Diabetes is a disease or condition that occurs when
your blood sugar (glucose) is too high. Over time, having high blood sugar
levels can cause serious health problems, but you can prevent or delay these
problems by eating healthy meals, being physically active, monitoring your
blood sugar and taking the medicine your doctor prescribes. Although there is no
cure, millions of people with diabetes enjoy long, full lives, and you can,
too.
