It is a chronic disease characterized by a disorder in blood glucose (sugar).During digestion the organism metabolizes sugars, starches and carbohydrates, transforming them into simple sugars, it goes to the bloodstream and with the help of insulin that is a hormone secreted by the pancreas, glucose is transformed into energy that is usedby body cells. When there is no insulin or when it is not produced effectively, glucose accumulates in blood increasing sugar levels, this is diabetes.
Type I Diabetes (Insulinodependent): It usually appears before the age of 30. The pancreas cells are destroyed by viral or autoimmune causes and as a consequence the insulin deficiency is severe increasing blood sugar levels, needing for their treatment insulin supplements daily.
Typei Diabetes (not insulin-dependent): It is the most common usually after 30 years. It is one in which the pancreas continues to form insulin but below the normal levels of insulin, making glucose increase in blood.
They are not known precisely, but there are predisposing factors that make the disease develop:
In diabetic patients, both food hygiene and body hygiene are very important.
Avoid cuts or other kinds of injuries, wash them well and disinféctelas, watch them that properly heaven so as not to infect them because in diabetic patients the risk is greater.
The weakest diabetic point is the foot, due to nerve damage caused by the disease, the sensation of pain decreases; So diabetics may not find out that they have hurt their feet, there is also damage to blood vessels, which causes a delay in healing the wound; A small ulcer can become gangrenous and force an amputation.
Inspect your feet two or three times a day, make sure there is no redness, scrapes, cuts, ampoules, cracks, heat, inflammation and infection.
Wash your feet well with soft soap and sequence with taps every day.
keep your feet dry, use a talc between the fingers and often change your socks.
Keep the nails of the fingers of the foot and hagles straight and reduced cuts, smile your calluses, try as soon as possible, the athlete's foot. Do not remove your feet for prolonged periods.
Make sure the footwear is well, do not forget to wear socks.
losing weight is the number one priority.
do it a family issue, all members of it must participate in nutritional changes so that the diabetic becomes easier to do so.
Do not lift weights or exercise that includes push or pull heavy objects, since the sugar level and blood pressure rises, which can worsen an ocular disease due to diabetes.
The diabetic must maintain immaculate dental and oral health. Make visits more frequent to the dentist and especially the most careful use of the brush and dental thread to control the plate and tartar.
Tension and anxiety can destabilize diabetic control. Learn to think positive; improve your perspective.
control your blood or urine sugar. Try to maintain your glycemia within the normal range (70-110 mg/dl).
Avoid constipation and cholesterol.
Maintain a high diet in complex carbohydrates, low in fat and tall in fibers The following foods help reduce sugar levels: blackberries, daily products (especially cheese), egg yolks, fish, garlic, soybeans
Avoid saturated and hydrogenated fats.(Frying, animal fat).
Avoid red meat (pork, beef, lamb);prefer fish, chicken, turkey without skin, tuna in water.
Include in your diet: artichokes, cabbage, lettuce, escarolas, spinach, parsley, celery, radish, fungi, cucumbers, olives, vegetables and fresh vegetables; I look at its green salads with olive oil, vinegar, mustard and lemon
Eat garlic and onions although it may produce false levels in glucose tests.
Prefer five meals a day than the three usual. Comala them in small portions to avoid the stress of the pancreas.
Avoid alcohol, refined sugars, coffee and tobacco.
You should not eat: beets, very sweet fruits such as banana and mango;Sweet bread, white bread, pasta, cookies, corn, chocolates, cakes.Ketchup, also coma: Arvas, Zuchini, broccoli, cauliflower, carrot. Eat many blackberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, plums, grapes, etc.These fruits have chemical properties that help protect the eyes and kidneys from the diabetic.
drink a lot of water, at least 8 glasses a day but avoid soft water, it has been shown that the incidence of diabetes is high in soft water areas. Take natural water, not carbonated, or some other type of water containing traces of important minerals such as chromiun and manganese.
Monitor your sugar levels
maintain an adequate weight
In both types of diabetes the exercise can help greatly, perform a moderate exercise program.Aerobic activities such as walking, running, swimming and cycling have a beneficial effect on sugar levels.
The proper support of the family is an essential part for the success of the treatment and a long and happy life.
Prepare the following recipes: you can alternate both diet plans; Thus we have: High carbohydrates diet. High in fibers and low sugar. Anti -hypoglycemic diet; Low in sugar, carbohydrates and protein high;Both types of diet give him 1300 calories.
Insulin -dependent diabetes or type i
It affects before 39 years. There are 11000 to 12000 new cases diagnosed every year in America. 18 Histocompatibility Genes Class I and II that interfere with this process in which the body's immune system destroys the insulin produced by the pancreas has been isolated. This theory is assumed the function that viruses exert, especially the most common in the flu, which produce insulinitis, which triggers a reaction of the Killer cells of the autoimmune system, react by destroying the islets of the pancreas, through the increaseof the Autoimmune interleukina 4 (IL-4) factor producing the disease. Generally when the disease is diagnosed, those affected have lost from 80 to 98% of the beta cells of the pancreas islets.
Diabetes mellitus non-insulin-dependent or type II
There are 15 million Americans affected with this type of diabetes, of these 95% of people are above 20 years Numerous studies are currently being carried out that can clearly identify the genetic factors involved in this process as in the dependent insulin.
Avoid excessive consumption of refined carbohydrates, and maintain adequate weight.As long as there is no sure way to prevent diabetes, the aforementioned measures can help. There is no definitive treatment for your cure, but it can be controlled, it depends on you.
Spleen energy deficiency. Liquid deficiency (YIN). See by liver attacking the spleen. Yin and Yang general deficiency. Kidney energy deficiency.
Segun the symptoms described by the patient in consultation, as the language is seen, studies of the primary doctor, and the pulses that are taken in both wrists will be defined the diagnosis.Depending on the diagnosis, acupuncture treatment, Chinese herbs, oriental diet and recommended exercises will be defined.The key is a good diagnosis.Oriental doctor who attacks the symptoms to calm is called a minor doctor.The one who attacks the origin of the symptoms to cure that the patient is called a major doctor or master in Traditional Chinese medicine.
