Diabetes

If you are looking to discover diabetes facts or information about type 1 diabetes, a diabetes diet, diabetes causes, or diabetes prevention the best place to find the information is online. We must first learn about how our metabolism helps us break down and digest our foods. Our foods are broken down into glucose, which is a form of sugar. This gives our bodies energy. Insulin is a hormone that our pancreas makes. The glucose travels through our blood and is absorbs into our cells. However, the insulin needs to be in our cells for the glucose to be absorbed. If this does not go well, it’s an indication of diabetes symptoms in men and women. This article will review all about type 1 diabetes, diabetes causes and diabetes treatment.

What is Diabetes?

Diabetes is often called diabetes mellitus by medical professionals. It is a metabolic disorder. Diabetes comes in three forms: Type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes.

What is Type 1 Diabetes?

When a person has diabetes 1, the body doesn’t produce enough insulin. This type of diabetes is rare and more common in children and young adults. A type 1 diabetic will have to take insulin for the rest of their life.

What is Type 2 Diabetes?

Simply put, type 2 diabetes is when your body raises your blood sugar levels higher than it should be. You would be known as a hyperglycemic. This is the most common form of diabetes. When a person has diabetes 2, their body is resisting the insulin in their cells or is not producing enough insulin.

What is Gestational Diabetes?

Gestational diabetes occurs in pregnancy. This generally results in having too much glucose in a mother’s body. The expectant mother’s body is unable to make enough insulin for the glucose to be transferred to the cells.

What is Diabetic Neuropathy?

This is a common occurrence with diabetics. It damages diabetic’s nerves throughout their body. A diabetic will feel sharp and stabbing pain, tingling, or burning in their hands and feet.

What are The Symptoms of Diabetes?

A person can have prediabetes. This means they have higher than usual glucose in their blood but not enough to be labeled a diabetic. Your chances are increased if you are related to someone with diabetes, are obese, or are of African, Middle Eastern, or South Asia decent. Others at risk include the elderly and pregnant women. Your diet and physical exercise account as well. For instance, if you are not physically active or intake high sugar foods, you run the risk of being a diabetic.
