VIDEO DESCRIPTION
More than 1 billion people worldwide suffer from either diabetes or prediabetes, both of which are disturbances in how the body regulates blood sugar levels. In this video, we provide detailed information about how blood sugar levels are regulated in healthy people, what goes wrong in this process in type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and how diabetes is diagnosed.

We are discussing insulin resistance and its relationship to the function of the pancreatic betacell as well as insulinindependent regulation of blood sugar, including glucose effectiveness.
