Diabetes

Scientists already knew the amino acid code for insulin.

When in the human body (organs Pancreas+liver) is unable to produce insulin, then it leads to a condition called diabetes when the blood sugar level increases to damage many functional organs including metabolic problems.

Insulin is then injected in the human body for metabolic function.

Its ok to eat red meat if its the high end like Longhorn meat..which is much better than fish or chicken.

I am diabetic 2...and its ok to eat meat...just not a lot of it.

My own doc agrees, and keeps me at under 4ounces max... If Igo somewhere and get even a longhorn...and its more than 4 oz... i usually take it home for next day.

Dr. Frederick Banting a surgeon from Toronto, Ontario, Canada initially came up with the idea to use insulin in October 1920 and in early 1921 he took his idea to Professor John Macleod of the University of Toronto who provided Banting with a laboratory with little equipment, an assistant named Charles Best and ten dogs to experiment on. In late 1921 biochemist Bertram Collip joined the team with the task of purifying the insulin so they could begin testing on humans. The first person to receive insulin shots was 14 year old Leonard Thompson of Toronto, Ontario, Canada who in January 1922 was near death. However, after he was treated with insulin he quickly recovered his strength and appetite. Then in 1923, Banting and Macleod shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work with insulin in treating diabetes.

Yes, If you have dehydrated, or have loss of water, you may suffer from high blood pressure, normally because our blood volume will drop without water.

Your child can receive diabetes education from there pediatrician. They can also get info from a local diabetes clinic or doctor. Childhood diabetes is becomming more and more common in children.

Just a few days, with the most dramatic results evident within the first 24-48 hours. But this varies from person to person. The best way to tell is to start accurately measuring your own blood sugar using a glucometer, which is cheaply purchased at any pharmacy. You should then be able to test your own blood sugar just before and just after meals, and see exactly how well your diet is working to keep blood sugar down.

No one ever seem to answer even basic questions on this site.

Before you get to the Ketoacidosis stage, nothing will dehydrate you quicker than high blood sugar. Every liquid you take it will immediately be filtered and and not used properly. So, simple enough, keep a close eye on your sugars.

Perhaps Sourdough Bread, but the important point is to monitor your blood sugars.

mellitus is when you are insulin dependent in other words have type 1. this means that you have a desease in which your pancreas does not deliever insulin when you digest food. When you eat because the insulin in a regular person's body turns the food/sugar into energy, you need to take insulin and you yourself have to be the "pancreas". I personally have had type 1 diabets for 11 yeard. I am 14 years old and people oftern times think that i have type 2 diabetes becasue people arn't fully aware of type 1 and people are confused because i weigh 118 pounds. People with type 2 diabetes are most ofern old, but there are cases when children who eat and are over weight that have type 2.

summary: diabetes mellitus=type 1= insulin dependent

diabetes=overweight take inslulin because they don't make engough because they are over weight,.

hope this helps

Little or no Insulin Produced

diabetes is when the pancreas doesnt make insulin at all, doesnt make enough insulin or the body is resistant to insulin.

some of the signs and symptoms are as fallows:

— Tiredness

— Lack of energy

— Weight loss

— Feeling very thirsty

— Weight gain

— Interfere with eating

— Growth

— Leg cramps

— Feeling itchy

— Sore and boils that wont heal

— Blurry vision

— Pins and needles

— Feeling grumpy or angry

— feeling weak

— and Some people even have no signs or symptoms at all

Type 1 diabetes can be fatal the fastest if that is what you are asking, but both are fatal if untreated. Methods of treatment include insulin shots, pancreatic transplant, and pancreatic islet cell transplant.

A cure is still being researched but Diabetes is easily maintained if you have a healthy diet, and take care of yourself.

Type 1 diabetes is when no insulin is produced, and insulin is used to breakdown glucose. A build up glucose can create complications, so it is wise to take the insulin shots and watch your diet. Ketoacidosis can cause cerebral edema, and that is fatal. The brain runs on glucose, and when none of it is processed, the brain relies on fat. The byproducts of fat breakdown is ketone bodies. a build up of it is ketoacidosis, which is indeed fatal.

Need more information. Are you a diabetic (if so type 1 or type 2), are you on insulin, are you on medication?

When your blood sugar level drops you are hypoglycemic. You do not need to be a diabetic to have this happen, although it does happen frequently to diabetics. You may feel shaky, nervous, your heart may begin to pound, you may become pale. At this point you need to take a fast acting sugar such as a glucose tab (sugar tablet that you eat) a soda (coke), fruit juice with some added sugar. Wait fifteen minutes and take more if you still are feeling low. After you have stabilized then take about

2 oz. of protein (peanut butter is good). The sugar will bring your blood sugar up within a normal range and then you need the protein to keep you there until your next meal. DO NOT eat chocolate, many have been told to eat a candy bar when having a low sugar reaction but chocolate has fat in it and fat will actually prevent the sugar from entering your blood stream quickly. You need a sugar that will get into your bloodstream quickly.

He or she may want to check to see if you have diabetes.

The HbA1C test finds how much HbA1C is in your blood. A normal non-diabetic has about 3.5-5.5% HbA1C, but 6.5% is good for a diabetic. This is one of the best ways to check whether someone's diabetes is under control.

People who have diabetes need to follow a diabetic diet if they wish to control their blood sugar levels. A diabetic diet is easy to follow if you know how to prepare foods and what to purchase when you are at the grocery store. Diabetics need to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, but they should avoid ones that have high amounts of sugars. They should not eat or drink anything that has high sugar content such as sodas, chips and candy.

Unless you have Diabetic Nephropathy or Constant Albuminuria, you should be able to get coverage as a diabetic. Depending on how controlled your condition is depends on your rate. If your diabetes are under control you could qualify for a Standard Rating or be table rated if it's not being controlled well.

Depends ... some Type II Diabetics inject twice a day, so that would be some 730 needles.

Modern medicine issues some injectables in prefilled "pens" that use a smaller needle.

Yes,eggs can be part of healthy,low fat diet-in moderation.

They can be. Excessive thirst, shakiness, mood swings, nervousness, sweating,,, all this happening as a collective in an individual can also be symptoms. if it persists,consult a professional:) caryhoneybee

Diabetics should avoid sugar, flour and heavily processed foods. Stick to clean proteins like turkey, tuna, chicken and to vegetables. (fruits, even though "natural" are just sugar and they'll whack you around like a ping-pong ball)

Try to graze throughout the day, instead of eating big meals. This will keep your blood-sugar even.

Keep some white cheese on hand for when you get the low blood-sugar "shakes."

Unless there is a specific test for glucose levels, it is possible. If you suspect juvenile diabetes, you should consult with your physician immediately. She will prescribe the necessary tests. Juvenile diabetes can cause major problems and death with very little warning.
