🩸 “My sugar is high!” — But what does that actually mean?
We hear the word sugar all the time, but we’re really talking about glucose—the main type of sugar found in your blood.
Your body gets glucose from the foods you eat and uses it for energy. Insulin acts like a key, helping glucose move from your bloodstream into your cells.
But when too much glucose stays in your blood over time, it can lead to prediabetes, diabetes, and serious health complications.
And here’s the tricky part: high blood sugar doesn’t always make you feel sick. 👀
That’s why knowing your numbers matters.
