Expert Solution
Step 1: Understanding Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes stands as a persistent condition that influences the manner in which your body processes glucose, a vital energy source for your body. With type 2 diabetes, your body confronts a predicament; it either resists the influence of insulin, a hormone governing the entry of glucose into your cells, or it inadequately produces insulin to regulate glucose levels effectively.
