Being in control of your blood sugar means being in control of your diabetes. It is how you will stay healthy and live longer.

Blood sugar control is the number one goal of diabetes care. Your body turns the food you eat into a sugar called glucose, which it uses as fuel. Diabetes causes an imbalance of glucose and insulin in the blood. This imbalance is what causes the problems that diabetes is known for. Uncontrolled blood sugar can cause heart disease, strokes, kidney damage, nerve damage, and blindness. You may avoid all of those things by keeping your blood sugar under control.
