Diabatology

  • In some recent studies and statistics, it was found that77 million people in India have diabetes. This is equivalent to 1 in 11 Indians.
  • Diabetology is a branch of Endocrinology that deals specifically only with Diabetes or Diabetes Mellitus.
  • Diabetes is a disorder that occurs in the body due to several reasons.
  • The main symptom for this disease is that it spikes up the blood sugar in the body and remains elevated for a long time.
  • This disease also has an opposite action i.e For some people the body is not able to produce the required amount of insulin therefore not having the capacity to move the sugar from the blood into the cells.
  • Both high and low sugar are extremely dangerous if not treated with medications and lifestyle disease.
  • When the diabetes is not under control, the rest of the body like the brain, eyes, kidneys get affected simultaneously.
  • Diabetology is the sector of medical sciences that come under Endocrinology.
  • Diabetologists are licensed medical practitioners who work under this branch to treat people having diabetes.
  • Generally people who have diabetes, doctors prescribe medication that ensures keeping the blood sugar in control, so no other complications occur to the body and also to practise some lifestyle changes like eating the right portion of food, 
    changing unhealthy food habits to healthy food habits, not to get to stressed out, to regularly exercise to keep the body fit and healthy etc.
