Useful Guide for Understanding and Managing Type 2 Diabetes
Posted: Dec 19, 2017
Many people are at higher risk of developing the disease due to obesity and/or consuming an excess of specific foods. Therefore, you need to make some lifestyle and dietary changes to manage and quickly reverse type 2 diabetes.
The potential of blood sugar to sabotage our health is often underestimated by the population. When it is left untreated for a long period of time it could develop into a health condition called diabetes. Diabetes affects the body’s ability to produce and use the hormone "Insulin" which allows your body to turn glucose into energy.
What happens if diabetes is left untreated?
If diabetes is not controlled by a scientific diabetic diet plan and specific lifestyle changes, it can lead to potential health complications like heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, nerve damage and more. Insulin is what facilitates the process of pulling sugar from the blood and putting it in the cells for use, to produce energy. If you have diabetes type 2, you are generally making enough insulin, however, the insulin is unable to push the glucose and fat into the fat cells of the muscles, because there is already too much fat that has gone into the muscle cells from over eating certain specific foods. This then causes blood glucose levels to rise while the rest of your cells are deprived of much-needed energy.
What happens to the body when you have type 2 diabetes?
When you have type 2 diabetes, the muscles and the kidney that normally convert the blood sugar and use it as energy begin to lose its sensitivity to the hormone insulin, a condition that is known as insulin resistance.
The pancreas, which possesses the insulin-making beta cells, responds to the body’s insulin resistance by secreting even more of the hormone. The excess blood sugar caused by diabetes can wreak havoc on blood vessels all over the body and create complications, such as: severe damage to the eyes, kidneys, circulatory system, nerves, reproductive system and other body parts.
Managing Type 2 Diabetes Effectively
Diabetes management requires awareness. You may need to inject insulin to help replace or supplement your own natural production of the hormone and to help your body overcome insulin resistance. Keeping your blood sugar levels within the range recommended by your doctor can be challenging, but you can easily do that and now even 100% reverse diabetes type 2 by following the scientific diabetic diet plan and life-changing program as mentioned in the book Diabetes Gone by Gary Anderson.
