Main reasons for diabetes
Genetics: If your parents or siblings have diabetes in your family, you are also more likely to get it.
Obesity: Obesity, especially excess fat in the abdomen, causes insulin resistance. This leads to type 2 diabetes.
Lack of exercise: People with a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to have high blood sugar levels and it can go uncontrolled.
Dietary habits: Regular consumption of excessive sweets, sugary drinks, flour-containing foods, and processed foods increases the risk of diabetes.
Lack of sleep and mental stress: Lack of proper sleep and continuous mental stress affect the hormonal balance in the body and increase the risk of diabetes.
Age: The risk of diabetes increases with age, but nowadays it is also seen in children and young people.
PCOS: Hormonal problems like PCOS in women can increase insulin resistance and lead to diabetes.
