What is “Type 2” diabetes?

Type 2 diabetes is the most common diabetes. It is characterized by an abnormal increase in blood sugar levels linked to insulin resistance and insufficient insulin secretion. Family predisposition, overweight or obesity, history of diabetes during pregnancy… are all risk factors for developing diabetes, especially from the age of 45.

Type 2 diabetes is a disease that is too often overlooked because it is asymptomatic for several years to develop. Therefore, chronic complications of diabetes often appear in patients who unknowingly had diabetes for several years.

The treatment :

The goal of treatment for type 2 diabetes is to maintain good blood sugar control. In all cases, this consists of a suitable diet and regular physical activity, often supplemented by taking medication, then, if necessary, insulin treatment associated with blood sugar monitoring.

It is for this reason that Phil is useful to all patients with type 2 diabetes. Phil helps you balance your diet, track your blood sugar and understand type 2 diabetes to give you the keys to managing your diabetes.
