Is diabetes transmitted through saliva?

Diabetes is generally not transmitted through saliva.

Diabetes is a metabolic disease mainly related to insufficient insulin secretion or dysfunction in the body, not caused by pathogen infection. The causes include genetic factors, environmental factors and lifestyle factors, but non-infectious factors. Even if contact with saliva of diabetic patients, it is impossible to acquire diabetes. Because diabetes is not transmitted through common transmission routes such as droplets or contact,

it depends on genetic predisposition and long-term unhealthy lifestyles, such as unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, and chronic mental stress, rather than exposure to saliva or other secretions of other patients.

Therefore, diabetes is a disease caused by its own metabolic disorder, there is no possibility of transmission to others, people do not need to worry about daily contact with diabetic patients. Diabetes should be correctly recognized, pay attention to their own health, and prevent the occurrence of diabetes by maintaining a good lifestyle.
