Diabetes is a dangerous disease like silent killer. Every
year more than 380 million people distressed by Diabetes. This number will be
double by 2030 said by the WHO (World Health Organization). So today diabetes
is very dangerous than AIDS, Breast Cancer etc.
If you want to know about Diabetes clearly, at first you
should know about insulin and glucose.
There are many types of hormone in your body. They are for
different types of work in your body. Insulin is one type of hormone. It
produced from the pancreas in our body. It works like a guard to unlock our
body cells. When insulin unlock the cells, glucose can enter the body cells and
keep us well.
All day we eat many foods. Do you know what do they do? The
foods we are eating, covert to glucose. Glucose go to the body cells then
blood. It produced by digesting carbohydrate and liver. It works like fuel for
our energy. As a result we can do all work like playing, walking, talking, running
etc.
When pancreas cannot produce hormone (insulin) enough or
stop producing hormone, glucose cannot enter our body cells properly or stop
entering. As a result body cannot get energy and will be getting sick day by
day. In this situation we need insulin injection to unlock cells manually.
There are 3 types of Diabetes. The diabetes patients are
always feel thirsty and hungry. Mainly the diabetes patients are face these 3
types. They are Type 1, Type 2 and Gestational.
Type 1 diabetes occurs when our body do not produce insulin.
Generally people face this type of diabetes before 40 years. So the teens and children
can distressed by this type of diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when our body do not produce enough
insulin to unlock the body cells but it produces. It occurs 90-95 percent of
all diabetes. Now it is the most common type of diabetes. It afflict people after
40 years.
Gestational is not a common type of diabetes. Generally it
afflict women during pregnancy. At pregnancy time women hold a huge glucose in
their body. In this type pancreas will be unable to produce insulin to
transport glucose.
People do not need to worry a lot for diabetes. Because if
they can maintain simple diet and exercise rules, it is possible to keep
diabetes under control. In the other hand you must go to a doctor for better medication.
