What is diabetes? 

Diabetes is a chronic disease that develops in case the pancreas fails to secrete adequate levels of insulin hormone in the body or is unable to use the insulin hormone effectively. The insulin hormone is necessary to transfer sugar from the blood to the cells to be transformed into energy in the body. The global prevalence of diabetes is 415 million patients based on 2015 data. In 2040, this is expected to reach 642 million people. The budget spent for diabetes treatment is 670 billion USD today, while in 2040, it is expected to exceed 800 billion USD.
