Diabetes is a disease in which blood sugar (glucose) levels are above normal. High blood sugar can damage the vision, kidneys or nervous system. Type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes are the main types of diabetes. It affects more than 400 million people worldwide and is predicted to be the seventh leading cause of death in 2040.
