Why do some people have diabetes?
What causes diabetes?
The truth is, doctors are still unsure of what truly causes diabetes. Both your family history and lifestyle may play a role. But there’s one thing that doctors know for sure—diabetes is a result of the body either not making enough insulin or not being able to use insulin the right way. When the body is not making enough insulin, there is too much sugar in the blood. Therefore, most people with diabetes need to try to lower this blood sugar through treatment, like insulin or pills.
When you take an insulin, like short-acting NovoLog® , you are taking an active role in managing your blood sugar levels. To learn how to take NovoLog®, click here.
