What is Diabetes

Dr. Teoh Soo Huat

Weight Management Specialist

Diabetes is a lifelong condition when your blood glucose level is too high. Type 2 diabetes occurs progressively when the body becomes immune to the effects of insulin (insulin resistance) and/or the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (insulin deficiency). This results in glucose staying in the blood and unable to be utilised by the body organs to be used as energy.
