DIABETES-  What is Diabetes? Definition of Diabetes And Details –

 

Diabetes is a disorder that affects the way your body uses food for energy. Normally, the sugar you take in is digested and broken down to a simple sugar, known as glucose. The glucose then circulates in your blood where it waits to enter cells to be used as fuel. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, helps move the glucose into cells. A healthy pancreas adjusts the amount of insulin based on the level of glucose. But, if you have diabetes, this process breaks down, and blood sugar levels become too high. There are two main types of full-blown diabetes.

Pre-diabetes will have to take care– Pre diabetes means that the cells in your body are becoming resistant to insulin or your pancreas is not producing as much insulin as required. Your blood glucose levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be called diabetes. This is also known as “impaired fasting glucose” or “impaired glucose tolerance”. A diagnosis of pre-diabetes is a warning sign that diabetes will develop later.

TYPE 1 DIABETES – What is Type 1 Diabetes?- In this type NO Insulin will be produced in the body of the patient. People with Type 1 diabetes are completely unable to produce insulin. This means they have to reply on insulin from external sources And Types 1 diabetes can not be cured permanently. No medicines can cure it including home made herbal medicines. Type 1 most often occurs before age 30, but may strike at any age. Type 1 can be caused by a genetic disorder. The origins of Type 1 are not fully understood, and there are several theories.. Frequent insulin injections are needed for Type 1 Diabetes. 


TYPE 2  DIABETES – What is Type 2 Diabetes?- Here insulin production is not up to the mark- That doesn’t mean there is no insulin in body. People with Type 2 diabetes can produce insulin, but their cells don’t respond to it. In either case, the glucose can’t move into the cells and blood glucose levels can become high. Over time, these high glucose levels can cause serious complications. Home made herbal diabetic medicines can cure diabetes of this type.
