    Elevated levels of blood
    glucose (hyperglycemia) lead (Oral Recitation)
    to spillage of glucose into the
    urine, hence the term “sweet
    urine”. Normally, blood
    glucose levels are tightly
    controlled by insulin, a
    hormone produced by the
    pancreas. Insulin lowers the
    blood glucose level. When the
    blood glucose elevates (for
    example, after eating food),
    insulin is released from the
    pancreas to normalize the
    glucose level. In patients with
    diabetes, the absence or
    insufficient production of
    insulin causes hyperglycemia.
    Diabetes is a chronic medical
    condition, meaning that
    although it can be controlled,
    it lasts a lifetime.
