2. Glycated hemoglobin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycated_hemoglobin

   Glycated hemoglobin, also called glycohemoglobin, is a form of hemoglobin (Hb) that is chemically linked to a sugar. [note 1] Most monosaccharides, including glucose, galactose, and fructose, spontaneously (that is, non-enzymatically) bond with hemoglobin when they are present in the bloodstream.

3. Diabetic hypoglycemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetic_hypoglycemia

   Hypoglycemia can also be caused by sulfonylureas in people with type 2 diabetes, although it is far less common because glucose counterregulation generally remains intact in people with type 2 diabetes. Severe hypoglycemia rarely, if ever, occurs in people with diabetes treated only with diet, exercise, or insulin sensitizers.

4. Type 2 diabetes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_2_diabetes

   [12] [13] Diagnosis of diabetes is by blood tests such as fasting plasma glucose, oral glucose tolerance test, or glycated hemoglobin (A1c). [3] Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable by staying at a normal weight, exercising regularly, and eating a healthy diet (high in fruits and vegetables and low in sugar and saturated fat). [1]

5. Low-carb diet may eliminate need for drugs in type 2 diabetes

   Adults with mild type 2 diabetes might improve their insulin sensitivity by following a low-carb diet, thus potentially eliminating the need for medication, a new study suggests.

6. Hemoglobin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemoglobin

   Hemoglobin deficiency can be caused either by a decreased amount of hemoglobin molecules, as in anemia, or by decreased ability of each molecule to bind oxygen at the same partial pressure of oxygen. Hemoglobinopathies (genetic defects resulting in abnormal structure of the hemoglobin molecule) [ 82 ] may cause both.

7. Complications of diabetes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complications_of_diabetes

   The complications of diabetes can dramatically impair quality of life and cause long-lasting disability. Overall, complications are far less common and less severe in people with well-controlled blood sugar levels. [3] [4] [5] Some non-modifiable risk factors such as age at diabetes onset, type of diabetes, gender, and genetics may influence risk.
