Diabetes is a very complicated disease. It is when the body cannot produce or use insulin - a hormone 6 needed to convert sugar into energy necessary for daily life. It affects 250 million people worldwide, throughout their lives. Many sufferers live with diabetes from catching 7 it as children. People with diabetes look after 95% of their own treatment – usually through several injections of insulin a day. Without insulin, people with diabetes would die.

The disease affects those who are overweight, so eating healthily and exercising are very important.
