Diabetes management depends on the type of diabetes:

  • Type 1 Diabetes: This is an autoimmune condition where the body does not produce insulin. It cannot be cured, but it can be managed with insulin therapy, diet, and lifestyle changes.
  • Type 2 Diabetes: This is often linked to lifestyle factors. While it cannot be fully cured, it can be managed and sometimes put into remission through weight loss, healthy eating, regular exercise, and medication.
  • Prediabetes: This condition can often be reversed with lifestyle changes, preventing progression to Type 2 diabetes.

Always consult with a healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan.
