Type 2 diabetes

Diabetes 2 is often also called Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus, or Diabetes Mellitus Insulin Without Relying on. In contrast to diabetest type 1, type 2 on the problem is not because the pancreas does not make insulin because the insulin is made but not enough. Most of the inhaled insulin produced by fat cells due to lifestyle and diet is not good. While the pancreas can not make enough insulin to overcome insulin deficiency so that blood sugar levels will rise.

Type 2 diabetes is a type of diabetes that most suffered. Approximately 90% to 95% of diabetics suffer from type 2 diabetes. This type of diabetes most often affects adults over the age of 30 years and tends to get worse gradually.



Causes of Type 2 Diabetes
The cause of type 2 diabetes because of insulin produced by the pancreas is not sufficient to bind sugar in the blood due to diet or an unhealthy lifestyle. Some of the main causes of diabetes type 2 can be summarized as follows:

    Heredity, if a parent or a sibling who experience it.
    Diet or an unhealthy lifestyle. The number of fast-food outlets that serve fast food or fatty foods and unhealthy.
    High cholesterol levels.
    Rarely exercise.
    Obesity or being overweight.

All causes of type 2 diabetes is generally due to an unhealthy lifestyle. This makes the metabolism in the body is not perfect that make insulin in the body can not function properly. The hormone insulin can be absorbed by the fats in the body. So diet and unhealthy living haya can make the body lacks insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes Treatment

Type 2 diabetes treatment is to force the work function of the pancreas so that it can produce more insulin. If the pancreas can produce insulin the body needs, then the blood sugar levels will decline as it can be converted into energy. In many cases, can be treated by taking a pill, at least initially, to stimulate the pancreas to produce more insulin. The pill itself is not insulin.

However tired pancreas can produce insulin when repeatedly forced. The best way to cope with type 2 diabetes is with a good diet to lose weight and sugar levels, accompanied by appropriate exercise.

Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes 1 often called Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus, or Diabetes Mellitus Insulin Dependent on that. So type 1 diabetes associated with the inability of the pancreas to make insulin. So this type of diabetes associated with damage or impaired function of the pancreas produce insulin.

Type 1 Diabetes


Patients with type 1 diabetes mostly occurs in people under the age of 30 years. That is why the disease is often called juvenile diabetes because sufferers are more prevalent in children and adolescents. In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas can not produce enough insulin due to abnormalities of the body's immune system destroys cells that produce insulin or because of a viral infection so that the hormone insulin in the body decreases and the resulting pile of sugar in the bloodstream.
Causes of Type 1 Diabetes
In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas can not produce enough insulin. Due to lack of insulin causes the glucose stays in the bloodstream and can not be used as energy. Some causes of the pancreas can not produce enough insulin in people with type 1 diabetes, among others because:

    Heredity or genetics. If one or both parents suffer from diabetes, then the children are at risk of diabetes.
    Autoimmunity is the body's allergic to one tissue or cell type itself-in this case, which exists in pancreas. The body loses its ability to form insulin because the immune system destroys cells that produce insulin.
    Viruses or chemicals that cause damage to the islands of cells (cell groups) in the pancreas where insulin is made. More and more islands of damaged cells, the greater the likelihood of someone suffering from diabetes.

Type 1 Diabetes Treatment

Because of the difficulty pancreas produces insulin, the insulin should be added every day. Generally by means of insulin injections. Is it possible with oral care? Can not, because insulin can be destroyed in the stomach when inserted through the mouth.

Another way is to improve the work function of the pancreas. If the pancreas can return to normal functioning, the pancreas can meet the needs of insulin the body needs.

Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes 1 often called Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus, or Diabetes Mellitus Insulin Dependent on that. So type 1 diabetes associated with the inability of the pancreas to make insulin. So this type of diabetes associated with damage or impaired function of the pancreas produce insulin.

How do you get Diabetes?

Although the symptoms had been able to show a person has diabetes, but the best way to ascertain whether you have diabetes or not is to perform checks. What can be done to find out if you have diabetes? Here are some alternatives you can do either in person or tests in the clinic.

Blood  Sugar Tests


Usually done in the laboratory, which tested the blood during fasting and postprandial. Before performing the test, you must fast for 12 hours. Normal sugar levels during fasting is below 100 mg / dl. After that, blood sampling will be done again 2 hours after meals, when the results are above 140 mg / dL may mean you have diabetes.


Urine tests

Urine or urine albumin levels checked, sugar and mikroalbuminurea determines whether a person suffering from this disease or not. This test is also performed in the laboratory or clinic.


Glukometer

This test can be done at home if you have the tools. The trick is to put a needle on a finger to take blood samples. Then the blood sample is placed into the gap that is available on the machine glukometer. The results are not very accurate, but can be used to monitor glucose for patients in order if there are indications of high sugar can immediately check in the laboratory and contact a doctor. Glukometer latest tool is designed so easy to use and does not cause pain when taking a blood sample.

Symptoms of Diabetes

Due to lack of insulin and has a high sugar content in blood, then some common symptoms for people with diabetes both type 1 and type 2. If you experience these symptoms, you should check to determine levels of blood sugar. In general, some of the symptoms that occur include:

     Frequent urination
     Often feel very thirsty
     Often hungry because they do not get enough energy so the body's hunger signals
     Losing weight suddenly though there was no attempt to lose weight. This is because when the body can      not distribute the sugar into the cells, the body burns its own fat and protein for energy.
     Often tingling in the feet or hands.
     Experiencing problems such as itching or skin ulcers.
     If injured, take longer to recover.
     Behavioral changes such as irritability. The reason for type 1 diabetics often awakened at night to urinate that can not sleep well.
     Easy to feel tired.

What is Diabetes?

Every food we eat is converted into energy by the body. In the stomach and intestines, food is broken down into several basic elements, including one type of sugar called glucose. If there is sugar, the pancreas produces insulin, which helps drain the sugar into body cells. Then, the sugar can be well absorbed in the body and burned to produce energy.

When a person has diabetes the pancreas that person can not produce enough insulin to absorb sugar obtained from food. That which causes blood sugar levels become high due to deposition of sugar from food that can not be absorbed properly and burned into energy. Another cause is a defect of insulin or the body can not use insulin properly.

Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, an organ next to the stomach. This hormone attaches itself to receptors that exist in the cell walls. Insulin receptors on duty to open the cell walls so that glucose enters the cell. Then the cells convert glucose into energy the body needs to perform the activity. In other words, insulin helps to channel glucose into cells to be converted into energy. If the amount of insulin is not enough, then the accumulation of sugar in the blood, causing diabetes.

The cause of diabetes or diabetic depending on the type of diabetes that affects. There are 2 types of diabetes are common and affects many people, such as diabetes type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The difference is that if type 1 diabetes due to pancreatic organ function can not produce insulin, whereas type 2 diabetes due to a lack of insulin because the pancreas is not able to function properly.
