DIABETES
|
|
Everything
we eat
affects the level of our blood sugar and insulin.
That is why food is a main factor in the beginning, development and
treatment of the disease.
Following a diet is
one of the most
important factors in treating diabetes. Even if
you take medicine to
keep your sugar at the right level, it is still very important to eat
the right foods. Talk to your doctor about what diet is right for you
because it
should be based on the severity of your condition, your life style and
your type
of work.
Here
are just
general guide lines.
You should get vitamins C, K and group B. Natural sources of vitamin C
are wild roses, citruses, apples, parsley and vegetables.Sources of
vitamin B1 are yeast, whole grains, poultry and many vegetables. You
will get vitamin B2 with yeast, milk, eggs, fish and meat. There is
vitamin A in cream butter, milk, meat and fish. Sources of carotene are
vegetables and fruits.
These
foods
are
recommended:
pomegranate, lemon, onion, garlic, cinnamon (1/2 tea spoon of cinnamon
a day will lower your blood sugar. You also can add pieces of cinnamon
in your tea), fish, broccoli, kidney beans, lentil, barley, cabbage,
turnip, coriander seeds, blueberries, pears, beans, viburnum, dogwood,
pumpkin, beets, cabbage, oatmeal and horseradish.
These
foods
are NOT
recommended: sugar, jam, syrups, beer and mayonnaise.
Limit
the foods containing cholesterol like cream butter,
fat meat, egg yolks and lard, etc.
Remember
that there is a lot of glucose in some fruits and vegetables, like
grapes, bananas, potatoes and persimmon.

| Introduction
To Diabetes |
Diabetes
is a growing health problem in the world
today. Did you know that approximately 20.8 million children and adults
are diagnosed with diabetes in the United States alone? These numbers
are growing every day. The exact cause of diabetes is not clear,
however, lack of exercise and obesity are huge factors in the
development of diabetes. This article will give some general
information about diabetes.
Glucose
is considered the body's fuel. We
get
glucose from the foods that we eat. It is not just sugar alone that is
converted into glucose, but also starches and carbohydrates are
chemically broken down into glucose. Without glucose your body would
not function. All muscles and major organs in your body need glucose.
But how does the glucose get to the proper destinations?
Insulin
is the hormone that distributes the
glucose to the liver, fat cells and muscles. A diabetic does not
produce enough insulin or for some reason, his body is not able to
process it effectively. When this happens the glucose stays in the
blood and produces high blood sugar.
Diabetes
can be classified into the
following
three types:
Type
1
Diabetes
In
type 1 diabetes the body produces little
or no
insulin and daily injections of insulin are necessary to sustain life.
This type is usually present from childhood and is also called insulin
dependent diabetes.
Type
2
Diabetes
It
is the more common type of diabetes and
usually
develops in adulthood. With type 2 diabetes, the body is unable to
effectively use the insulin produced. Most type 2 diabetics are managed
by diet and oral medications.
Gestational
Diabetes
This
type develops during pregnancy and
usually
goes away after the birth of the baby.
It
is important to know the risks factor of
diabetes. One of the biggest risks factors is a family history. If you
have a parent or sibling with diabetes, your chances of developing
diabetes are very good. Also being over 45 years of age, being obese,
having poor eating habits or being of African American or Native
American descent can increase your chance of becoming a diabetic.
If
you have any of the above risk factors,
be
aware of the warning signs of diabetes. Contact you doctor if you have
any of these signs and symptoms:
-
Increased appetite
- Increased thirst
- Frequent urination
- Slow healing cuts or infections
- Increased amount of infections
- Blurry vision
If
you are diagnosed with diabetes,
treatment will
usually involve diet changes and oral medications. In more severe
cases, insulin injections may be prescribed.
Diabetes
is manageable if the proper
treatment
regimen is followed. Talk with your doctor and a good diabetic
educator. Have your doctor set you up an appointment with a registered
dietician. She can show you what you can and cannot eat on a diabetic
diet. Check your blood sugar levels frequently. Educate yourself about
all the treatment options out there. Lose weight and become more
active. Getting a diagnosis of diabetes is no reason to stop living.

don't know could kill you! Jeff also suggests visiting http://www.FreeArticles.com

Usually
alcohol is
not
recommended for people who have diabetes.
And it is hard to find an explanation why. There are two sources of
getting sugar in your blood: carbohydrates of your food and glucose
from your liver. If you are healthy, you constantly get glucose from
your liver and your blood sugar does not drop lower than 3.3 mmol/L.
If you have diabetes and you are not getting glucose from your
liver, your blood sugar will be increased after you eat but
the
carbohydrates will be assimilated by your body because of the insulin
effect and the level of your blood sugar will drop lower than 3.3
mmol/L. You will get a serious case of hypoglycemia.
Alcohol
blocks
entering glucose from your liver.
That is why if you are going to drink alcohol, you should
prevent getting hypoglycemia. NEVER take pills that lower your sugar
before drinking. You
must eat before drinking and alcohol will be absorbed
slower. Do not drink champagne because the bubbles help fast alcohol
absorption. You have to
eat carbohydrates
(cereal, bread, pasta, ziti or apples) right after your drink.
Check your blood sugar in a few hours.
When your blood sugar suddenly drops a lot, you can feel sudden
weakness, cold perspiration, numbness of your lips and tongue, intense
hunger, trembling and a rapid heartbeat.
If you feel that your blood sugar is decreasing, get fast absorbing
carbohydrates like a few pieces of sugar, very sweet tea, water or
juice because usually you have only about 1 min to start helping
yourself before it is too late. Do not eat candies, chocolate or
cookies because glucose from this kind of food assimilates
slowly.
After, you should eat a few pieces of dark bread or a bowl of potatoes
or cereal.
Tell your relatives and friends in advance what they have to do in a
case of hypoglycemia. Your friends and relatives should not
pour water or put any food in your mouth if you passed out. If you do
not have glucagon for injection, they should rub some honey or fruit
jam
in your gums and call 911.
ALWAYS have a few pieces of sugar and dark bread with you.
Also, it will be great if you prepare a card with information about how
to help you if you suddenly get hypoglycemia and pass out. Carry
this card everywhere with you.

TIP |
People
who have diabetes know that
it takes a long
time for even small scratches to heal. Sometimes it can be very painful.
Here is
a
great
easy remedy. Prepare carrot
oil.
Put 1 glass of grated carrots in a small pot and cover the carrots with
vegetable oil. Put the small pot in a big pot with boiling water (steam
bath). Close the small pot with a cover. Keep it on a heat for about 15
min (until the oil in the small pot is ready to boil) and let it cool
in room temperature. Then filter the oil. Your carrot oil is ready. Rub
it in your sore spots and eat 1 tea spoon of the oil 4 times a day.
Hold it in your mouth for 3 min before swallowing. Keep the carrot oil
in your refrigerator. You will not believe how fast your sore spots
will heal. |

It
is amazing that no one is talking about beating diabetes simply by
making some easy alterations to the foods you’re already
eating.
No one ever
talks about “beating diabetes”, everyone seems to
be content with finding ways to “control diabetes”
or “live with diabetes”. And for good
reason.
Listen, if
somebody showed you how to beat diabetes… they
wouldn’t make very much money off of you. But if somebody
invents a pill or a shot that helps you live with diabetes…
they’ll get your money week-after-week, month-after-month,
year-after-year until the day you die.
Over four hundred hears
before the birth of Jesus Christ, Hippocrates said…
“Just
as food causes chronic disease, it can be the most powerful cure”
While it’s an
uncommon solution here in the Western
Hemisphere (most doctors are trained to pass out drugs, not actually
fix the problem), many people are actually banishing diabetes for good
by fixing the problem with food!

People don't die from
diabetes. They die from "complications".
"Complications" develop from "symptoms", therefore, first there are
"symptoms" letting you, your body, and/or your doctor know
something is going wrong.
Because
the body tries to heal itself, if the correct action is taken
to SOLVE the ROOT CAUSE of the symptom, the symptom may
disappear and then cannot develop into a
"complication".
If an incorrect action is taken, such as not giving the body
what it needs to heal itself, then the symptom will likely worsen and
then develop into a "complication" ;
resulting in blindness, amputation, kidney (renal) failure,
or in a worst case scenario ... death.
If you could discover and solve the root causes of the various symptoms
while they were still "symptoms", would not the symptoms
likely disappear and then could not develop into
"complications"?
TWO
CONCLUSIONS : "Complications"
are merely "symptoms" that have developed into advanced
stages.
Also "complications" "may" be prevented if you
discover and
solve the root cause of the various "symptoms", WHILE THEY ARE STILL
"SYMPTOMS"!
