Gestational Diabetes (GD) is a temporary condition characterized by high blood sugar levels that arises during pregnancy. It typically develops in the second or third trimester and resolves after childbirth. Affecting approximately 6% of pregnant women, GD is often asymptomatic. However, some women may experience increased thirst, frequent urination, excessive hunger, fatigue, and blurred vision.

Diabetes and cardiovascular health are intricately connected, with diabetes serving as a significant risk factor for heart-related complications. Individuals with diabetes often face an increased likelihood of developing heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular issues. The interplay between high blood sugar levels and the cardiovascular system can lead to the narrowing of blood vessels and the accumulation of plaque, heightening the risk of heart-related complications.

Diabetes poses distinct challenges for older adults, with an increasing prevalence in this demographic. Managing diabetes in later life requires a comprehensive approach. Older adults with diabetes are at higher risk for complications such as cardiovascular issues, vision problems, and neuropathy. Treatment involves a combination of medication, lifestyle adjustments, and careful dietary management.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition characterized by the immune system mistakenly attacking and destroying insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Unlike Type 2 diabetes, Type 1 diabetes is unrelated to lifestyle factors and typically manifests in childhood or adolescence. Individuals with Type 1 diabetes require lifelong insulin therapy to regulate blood sugar levels.

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic metabolic condition characterized by insulin resistance, where the body's cells become less responsive to insulin. This leads to elevated blood sugar levels. Unlike Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 is often associated with lifestyle factors such as poor diet, sedentary behavior, and obesity. It typically develops in adulthood, but increasingly affects younger populations due to changing lifestyles.
