Type 2 diabetes is a lifelong condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or produces insufficient amounts, leading to raised blood sugar levels.
Type 1 diabetes usually starts early in life and requires insulin treatment, whereas Type 2 is often linked to lifestyle and develops gradually over time.
The miracle fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) has been studied for its possible blood-sugar-lowering effects, but there’s currently no approved medical use for it in UK care.
According to NHS guidelines, most adults should aim for an HbA1c level of 48mmol/mol (6.5%) or below to maintain stable glucose control.
Over 5 million people in the UK live with diabetes, so trained carers play a crucial role in recognising symptoms early and promoting healthier outcomes.
A balanced diet, routine exercise, and weight control can help regulate blood glucose, reduce medication reliance, and improve long-term health.
Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to nerve damage, kidney disease, vision loss, and heart problems, highlighting the importance of proactive care and monitoring.
