Diabetes can be caused by too little insulin, resistance toinsulin, or both. To understand diabetes, it is important to first understand the normalprocess by which food is broken down and used by the body forenergy. Several things happen when food is digested: A sugar called glucose enters the bloodstream. Glucose is a sourceof fuel for the body. An organ called the pancreas makes insulin. The role of insulin is tomove glucose from the bloodstream into muscle, fat, and liver cells,where it can be used as fuel. People with diabetes have high blood sugar because their bodycannot move sugar into fat, liver, and muscle cells to be stored forenergy. This is because either: Their pancreas does not make enough insulin Their cells do not respond to insulin normally Both of the above 6.
