What organs do type 2 diabetes affect?
Diabetes Mellitus affects the pancreas and Diabetes Insipidus affects the kidneys. Diabetes Mellitus is a condition that causes the pancreas to produce little or no insulin. Insulin is essential to the blood as it breaks down all the unwanted sugar in the bloodstream and can be naturally produced by the pancreas or artificially produced by doctors and scientists. I am sorry as i know very little about Diabetes Insipidus. i hope i have satisfied your request. :)
Which type of diabetes begins in childhood or adolescence?
The first type of diabetes, Type 1 diabetes (formerly called juvenile diabetes), is usually first recognized in children or adolescents and is generally not preventable. In this type of diabetes, the pancreas stops producing insulin or produces very little. This is the most serious type and requires daily insulin treatment for life to be sustained. About 10% of people with diabetes have this type.
Do If you have diebetes info?
Yes. Diabetes is caused when the pancreas produces little or no insulin to regulate the blood sugar level. Which causes some people to have to inject insulin into their body. With type 2 diabetes some people can fix it with exercise and the proper nutrition. Type 1 diabetes is often referred to as Juvenile Diabetes because it affects mostly young people from ages 10-28 years of age.
Does the endocrine system have a component that stops functioning and leads to diabetes?
Yes, the endocrine system includes the pancreas, which produces insulin, a hormone crucial for regulating blood sugar levels. In Type 1 diabetes, the immune system mistakenly attacks insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, leading to little or no insulin production. In Type 2 diabetes, the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough, disrupting glucose regulation. Both conditions result from dysfunction within the endocrine system.
What happens in type one of diabetes?
Type one diabetes is when your islet cells do not produce any or do not produce enough insulin. People with type one diabetes have to take shots daily to maintain their blood sugar. That or they could get an insulin pump that does that for them.
What is diabetes insipidius?
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare condition that occurs when your kidneys are not able to conserve water. It results in extreme thirst for water and frequent urination. There are several types of DI, and they can often be successfully treated. This condition is not related to diabetes mellitus (the disease most often referred to as simply "diabetes").
Is it prediabetes is considered as diabetes?
actually diabetes is just that, diabetes, it is like saying you are a "little bit" pregnant.
Why would this happen to me Day 1 bowel was white day 2 had very little energy day 3 lower lip is swollen?
There are many causes but could be a result of liver disorder, pancreas disorder, biliary disorder, and/or other digestive problems. It's best you see a doctor/physician soon, white stool is often a clear sign of a disease/disorder (whether it be a minor or major one).
Can obesity be considered a disability?
No it is not considered a disibility, atleast not that im aware of anyway! Yes and no (at least in Canada.) Just because you have diabetes doesn't mean you can't work, but, if you should have complications from diabetes (losing toes or a leg) then yes, you can claim on disibility if you can't go to work.
What system is most affected by diabetes?
Diabetes is when the immune system attacks the insulin making beta cells in the pancreas. This keeps the cells from getting energy. If cells have less to no energy, it affects the whole body
What causes pituitary gland to stop working?
The pancreas is the organ that produces insulin. When it stops working, a person becomes diabetic. The reasons the pancreas might stop working include pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, and pancreatic cancer.
If Diabetes is noninfectousis it a genetic disease or is it caused by the environment?
The answer depends on the type of diabetes. Diabetes is the name of a disease describing dis-regulation of blood sugar. When the pancreas gland delivers too little insulin, blood sugar can rise beyond normal and cause a host of undesirable consequences. Untreated, it can cause death. This is called type 1 diabetes. When insulin receptors in the body's cells lose sensitivity to the insulin secreted by the pancreas gland, blood sugar is similarly uncontrolled. Again in this case, death could result if the condition is left untreated. This is called type 2 diabetes, or sometimes "Adult Onset Diabetes" or "Late Onset Diabetes". The underlying cause of type 1 diabetes could be pre- or post- birth hormonal or environmental, but in any case the pancreas is not generating enough insulin to keep blood sugar within an acceptable range. The common solution is to inject insulin into the bloodstream from outside. Type 2 diabetes results from chronic and excessive consumption of simple sugars. It is best controlled through lifestyle and diet modifications. Incidentally, it is no longer referred to as Adult onset or Late onset diabetes. The incidence of simple sugars in the American diet is so pervasive that type 2 diabetes has reached epidemic proportions among our children, some as young as 10.
