Description

Abstract—Diabetes Mellitus also known as diabetes is a metabolic disorder that is characterized by a high level of blood sugar over a long period of time. It is a disease that occurs when the blood glucose, also known as blood sugar, content is too high in the blood. Blood glucose is the source of energy and it is made from the food we eat. The pancreas makes insulin which helps in breaking down the protein and carbohydrates from the food and convert into glucose and energy for the body. This insulin is used to break down this glucose and convert it into energy for the body. Sometimes the body doesn’t make enough insulin to work on the glucose.  In such situations, the glucose doesn’t get processed and just stays in the bloodstream. Over time, the presence of a lot of glucose in the bloodstream can cause chronic health issues. Generally, diabetes has no actual cure but certain steps can be taken to keep diabetes in check and stay healthy. This paper discusses the applications of Machine Learning in predicting and understanding diabetes in people.
