DIABETES SEMINAR

Signs of Diabetes Affected Jakarta, many people got some experiences when they urinate but the urine surrounded by ants. It was one of the signs of diabetes are easily known. But there are many more signs of diabetes to watch. Signs a person has diabetes as reported by the diabeteslibrary are follows: 1. Frequent urination Urination will be frequent if there is too much glucose in the blood. The insulin (a hormone that controls blood sugar) does not exist, or less then the kidneys can not filter glucose back into the blood 2. Often feel thirsty Because of frequent urination, you will become more frequent thirst, because the difficult process of destruction of glucose in the blood is then sucked up the water to destroy it 3. Rapid weight loss Mainly occurs in people with type 1 diabetes (genetic factors). Pancreas in people with diabetes to stop making insulin due to virus attack on pancreas cells or an autoimmune response that causes the body attacks the cells that produce insulin. 4. Feeling weak and tired Because glucose production is hampered so that the cells from glucose foods that should be distributed to all body cells to make energy so it does not run. 5. Frequent tingling in the feet and hands; This symptom is called neuropathy. Occurs gradually over time due to high blood glucose will damage the nervous system. 6. Blurred vision, dry or itchy skin, frequent infections or cuts and bruises, which requires a prolonged period of healing is another sign of diabetes. If you see any signs of it then you have reason to worry about diabetes. So what disease complications arising from diabetes? Here are the complications of diabetes: 1. Neurological diseases; Neurological disease is a long-term complications of diabetes. It is estimated that 60-70 percent of diabetics experience. 2. Eye disease (retinopathy); Because of the narrowing, hardening or termination of the veins and capillaries of the retina causing a serious complication known as retinopathy and can lead to vision loss.

3. Kardivaskular disease (heart); As a result of having high blood pressure and weakening of heart muscle function. 4. Kidney disease; Because it has high blood pressure makes impaired renal function. 5. Hypoglycemia; Occurs because people with diabetes should receive an injection of insulin in the body. If it is then more insulin than the amount of blood sugar will make your blood sugar drops below normal levels, this is called hypoglycemia 6. Indigestion; Disorders such as ulcers, diverticulitis, irritable bowel syndrome, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea and gallstones. 7. Complications in the mouth; As is often experienced dislodged teeth, especially in people with type 1 diabetes. 8. Easy to infection; High risk of infection such as wound infections, influenza, respiratory infections to tuberculosis of bones. 9. Complications of pregnancy; The infant mortality rate is higher in women who suffer from diabetes. 10. Ketoacidosis (blood becomes acidic); The early symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis are thirst and frequent urination, nausea, vomiting, fatigue and abdominal pain (especially in children).

What is diabetes? Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) is classed as a metabolism disorder. Metabolism refers to the way our bodies use digested food for energy and growth. Most of what we eat is broken down into glucose. Glucose is a form of sugar in the blood - it is the principal source of fuel for our bodies.

When our food is digested the glucose makes its way into our bloodstream. Our cells use the glucose for energy and growth. However, glucose cannot enter our cells without insulin being present - insulin makes it possible for our cells to take in the glucose.

Insulin is a hormone that is produced by the pancreas. After eating, the pancreas automatically releases an adequate quantity of insulin to move the glucose present in our blood into the cells, and lowers the blood sugar level.

A person with diabetes has a condition in which the quantity of glucose in the blood is too elevated (hyperglycemia). This is because the body either does not produce enough insulin, produces no insulin, or has cells that do not respond properly to the insulin the pancreas produces. This results in too much glucose building up in the blood. This excess blood glucose eventually passes out of the body in urine. So, even though the blood has plenty of glucose, the cells are not getting it for their essential energy and growth requirements.

Why is it called Diabetes Mellitus?

Diabetes comes from Greek, and it means a siphon. Aretus the Cappadocian, a Greek physician during the second century A.D., named the condition diabainein. He described patients who were passing too much water (polyuria) - like a siphon. The word became "diabetes" from the English adoption of the Medieval Latin diabetes.

In 1675 Thomas Willis added mellitus to the term, although it is commonly referred to simply as diabetes. Mel in Latin means honey; the urine and blood of people with diabetes has excess glucose, and glucose is sweet like honey. Diabetes mellitus could literally mean "siphoning off sweet water".

In ancient China people observed that ants would be attracted to some people's urine, because it was sweet. The term "Sweet Urine Disease" was coined.

10 Tips to Prevent Diabetes Mellitus

Fortunately, you can prevent type-2 diabetes through lifestyle changes. Making some simple changes in your lifestyle now can help you prevent and control diabetes. Consider the following 10 tips on diabetes prevention: 1. Do more physical activity There are many benefits of regular exercise. Exercise can help increase your body's sensitivity to insulin, which helps keep blood sugar levels within normal range. According to a study conducted in men who were followed for 10 years, for every 500 kcal burned per week through exercise, there is 6% decrease in relative risk for developing diabetes. The 2. Get plenty of fiber in the diet Fiber foods not only reduces the risk of diabetes by improving blood sugar control but also reduce the risk of heart disease and maintain ideal weight by helping you feel full. Foods high in fiber include fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and tubers. One of the high-fiber diet has been shown to control diabetes are rice bran or rice bran. 3. Eat nuts and seeds Although it is not clear why, whole grains can reduce the risk of diabetes and help maintain blood sugar levels. In a study of more than 83,000 women, the consumption of nuts (and peanut butter) seems to show some protective effect against development of diabetes. Women who consume more than five one-ounce servings of nuts per week reduce the risk of diabetes than women who do not eat nuts at all. 4. Lose weight Approximately 80% of patients with obesity and diabetes are overweight. If you are overweight, diabetes prevention may depend on weight loss. Every kg of your weight loss can improve your health. In one study, overweight adults reduce their diabetes risk by 16 percent for each kilogram of body weight lost. Also, those who lost some weight at least 5 to 10 percent of initial body weight and exercising regularly reduces the risk of diabetes almost 60 percent in three years. 5. Drink plenty of low fat dairy products Data regarding the low-fat dairy products appear to vary, depending on whether you are fat or not. In patients with obesity, a growing number of low-fat milk is consumed, the lower the risk of metabolic syndrome. In particular, those who consumed more than 35 servings of dairy products is a week had a much lower risk than those who consumed less than 10 servings a week. Interestingly, this relationship is not so strong in people who are lean.

6. Reduce animal fats In a study of more than 42,000 people, a diet high in red meat, processed meat, high fat dairy products, and sweets, is associated with an increased risk of diabetes is almost twice of those who eat a healthy diet. This was independent of body weight and other factors. 7. Reduce consumption of sugar Sugar consumption was not associated with the development of type 2 diabetes. However, after adjusting for body weight and other variables, it seems there is a relationship between drinking sugar-laden beverages and the development of type 2 diabetes. Women who drank one or more sugary drinks a day had nearly double the risk of developing diabetes than women who drank one or less per month. 8. Quit smoking Smoking is not only contribute to heart disease and lead to lung cancer but is also associated with the development of diabetes. Smoking over 20 cigarettes a day can increase the risk of diabetes more than three times that of nonsmokers. Exact reasons for this are not well understood. Likelihood of smoking directly lowers the body's ability to utilize insulin. In addition, there is also a relationship between smoking and body fat distribution. Smoking tends to encourage the body "apple" which is a risk factor for diabetes. 9. Avoid trans fats Avoid eating trans fats (hydrogenated vegetable oils) are widely used in processed and fast foods. They have been shown to contribute to heart disease and may also lead to type-2 diabetes. 10. Get support Get friends, family or group of people to assist you in preventing diabetes. They can support you in maintaining your new healthy lifestyle.
