Diabetes World

So what is this diabetes thing, anyway?

Diabetes is where your body can't control the amount of sugar in your bloodstream. That can be bad. If you blood sugar gets too low, you can pass out, or even die. If it gets too high, all that sugar can actually damage your innards.

100% = 1,000,000 ppm = 1,000,000 mg / L = 10,000 mg / dL

blood sugar 100 mg / dL = 1,000 ppm = 0.1%
