When you hear doctors and other health professionals talk about “control of the disease,” usually referring to maintain levels of blood sugar or blood glucose within a healthy range. Having too much or too little blood sugar can make you feel sick now and that future health problems arise.
Successful control of diabetes focuses on the balance of three factors: medications you take (insulin or pills), the food you eat and how much exercise you do. The three (more…)
Whether insulin production is insufficient if there is resistance to its action, glucose accumulates in the blood (called hyperglycemia), progressively damages the blood vessels (arteries and veins) and accelerates the process of atherosclerosis by increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease: angina, myocardial infarction (and their complications and mortality after infarction) and sudden cardiac death. The cardiovascular risk of a diabetic person suffering a cardiovascular event is equal to that of a nondiabetic who has had a heart attack.
It also increases the possibility of cerebrovascular disease or peripheral artery involvement. To enter the brain glucose does not need insulin, and that goes directly from the blood. Maintain constant levels of blood glucose (between 60-110 mg / dl) avoids damage to nervous system. (more…)
Apart from questions of genetic transmission of diabetes (every day more in question) is proven to control food is the best method of preventing an outbreak of diabetes or delay totalmentee
Here are seven basic rules that you break free of it.
* 1. Eat healthy and wisely. Eating smaller portions is a great way to lose weight. You can make you look using a smaller plate. Avoid going pecking (snacking) while you’re cooking. Do not force yourself to finish your plate if you like, better leave it in the fridge for later. Eat breakfast daily, and make your meals regularly and at the same time whenever possible
* 2. Limit your meat to poultry and fish. Listen instead of watching TV while you’re eating. If you’re watching TV you are not aware of how much you’re eating and they end up eating more than you need
* 3. Eliminate desserts and refined sugars. If you eat out, a good salad in first abated much your appetite. The second course share it with your dinner companion, or ask that you wrap to take it. Avoid anything fried or roasted product high in fat. (more…)

If you have type 2 diabetes and do not control your blood sugar, you may be putting more than your heart, eyes and kidneys at risk – you also may be putting your brain at risk. People with diabetes are one and a half times more Likely to Develop Cognitive Impairment, or trouble with memory and thinking, including Alzheimer’s disease.
Studying Blood Sugar and the Brain
Two recent studies back up previous evidence that diabetes can alter brain function. In one study, reported in Neuropsychology, adults with diabetes performed Significantly worse than adults without diabetes on two tests of mental processing. In the other study, reported in Diabetes Care, adults with diabetes who had higher blood-glucose levels – compared with diabetes patients who controlled their blood-glucose levels – performed worse on tasks that required memory, speed and the ability to focus without being distracted by various stimuli.
It’s not exactly clear how blood sugar levels might affect mental function. Higher blood sugar levels cause cognitive impairment. Other factors might also be involved. For instance, having a lower-than-normal response to insulin might increase your blood sugar and odd brain processes.
