although diabetes Type 2 is more prevalent among the elderly, but it has also become more common among children and adolescents in recent years, and this is primarily due to the prevalence of obesity among children and youth. In this report, we learn about factors that cause a high rate of type 2 diabetes among Children, according to the “Times of India” website. .
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by insulin resistance. In such a condition, the body’s cells do not respond properly to the insulin produced by the pancreas.
Insulin is a hormone that plays an important role in regulating blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into cells for energy production.
This rise in childhood obesity rates is largely due to lack of physical activity and poor dietary choices. However, genetic predisposition also contributes to the development of the condition.
.
Symptoms of type 2 diabetes can be subtle and may develop gradually over time. Some common symptoms include a strong urge to urinate, excessive thirst, unexplained weight loss, increased fatigue, frequent infections, and numbness or tingling in the hands or feet.
To prevent type 2 diabetes in children, it’s essential to encourage a healthy lifestyle – eating well-balanced meals, limiting sugary drinks and processed foods, and exercising regularly. Limiting screen time and monitoring one’s physical health through a combination of healthy eating and physical activity is essential.
