What is the pathogen that causes diabetes?
Diabetes does not result from any pathogen. Diabetes is a result of issues that a person's body has with its production of the hormones that control blood sugar.The hormone, insulin, is generated by the pancreas to lower blood sugar when it gets too high. Diabetes results when insulin is no longer able to keep blood sugar levels down. This can result from being too fat, eating un-healthful foods, especially sugar, and so on.
Control Your Weight And Blood Sugar?
The Atkins diet diabetes plan is good for people who are diabetics. Atkins bases their foods on low carbohydrates and more proteins. The diet does not allow any sodas or sugars, so for people with diabetes, they can manage their blood sugar better than if they were on a diet themselves. Diabetics would not be able to eat large amounts of sugar if they follow the diet exactly as planned. Not only will diabetics control their blood sugar on Atkins, but they will keep their weight under control as well.
How can diabetes be controlled by exercising?
Yes and no. Type 2 diabetics are able to control their blood sugar levels by exercising. Type 1 diabetics must use insulin, however exercise does help them keep a lower blood sugar level.
What is controlled diabetes and uncontrolled diabetes?
I have diabetes trust me I know. Diabetes that is controlled means that you consistently have a correct number of sugar in your blood, uncontrolled means that you do not. Diabetes is caused when an organ called a pancreas breaks down, the pancreas controls how much sugar glucose is in your blood, when it breaks down you have to do it manually. I think controlled diabetes is when blood sugar level is safe.Safe Blood Sugar level is the optimum range that safely provided the body with the adequate amount of energy.For the average person it is 70 to 105mg/dl in the fasting state. Uncontrolled diabetes is when the level of diabetes is at or above 126mg/dl in the fasting state.
What do people with Type 1 Diabetes do to control their blood pressure?
Most people with type 1 diabetes are able to control their blood pressure with proper diet and exercise. However, some patients may need to take certain medications to help control their blood pressure.
What effect would insulin receptors have on blood sugar if they stopped working?
If insulin receptors stopped working, the cells would not be able to take in glucose from the bloodstream effectively. As a result, blood sugar levels would increase because the body would not be able to properly regulate glucose uptake. This could lead to high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia) and potentially result in symptoms associated with diabetes.
Would looking at blood sugar levels be part of diet?
If you are diabetic or prone to diabetes, yes, looking at blood sugar levels will be part of your diet maintenance. Yes, a doctor will be able to help you get started and teach you when and how to test your blood sugar levels. He will be able to teach you how to monitor your food intake and blood sugars to see what foods your body should avoid.

What is the risk of exercise with diabetes?
Exercise calls upon blood sugar resources, and also causes the body to release and consume more blood sugar. This means that it can cause blood glucose levels to rise OR to fall OR not to change much, depending on the individual and sometimes the circumstances. Since diabetics need to be able to predict and control their blood sugar, unpredictable bouts of exercise can lead to unusually low or high blood sugar. Keeping exercise predictable and routine, and knowing their own body's reaction to it, is the best answer for a diabetic.
What on Earth is diabetes?
Diabetes is a disease where the body doesn't produce any/enough in History sulin, the hormone necessary to break down sugar and convert it into energy. This makes the sugar (glucose) stay in the blood, causing higher blood glucose (glycaemia) levels. Also, in type II diabetes, the body produces insulin, but the cell isn't able to convert sugar into energy causing high blood glucose levels. Type II is managed by diet and insulin therapy.
What would happen if the body did not send a signal when blood glucose levels rose?
the body would not be able to control sugar levels in the blood
What is a glucose levels chart and can it help with diabetes?
It is a chart in which you would be able to find the range of blood sugar in healthy and diabetic people. Since you are diabetic, you would better check your blood sugar level regularly and try to keep in close to the normal range.
