What is lifestyle disease?
A disease associated with lifestyle of the a person
or group of people.
REASONS:
Malnutrition : The lack of living foods in our diet
along with the overconsumption of dead foods.
Lack of proper sleep
Lack of proper/fixed timing of breakfast/
lunch/dinner
Poor physical fitness
Poor health habits: Smoking, Alcohol, drug
use/abuse, excess use of sugar, salt, spices, fast
food, soft drink and work related stress.

What is Diabetes ?
What happens in the body ?
 Diabetes is a metabolic disorder resulting in
abnormally high blood sugar levels in the blood
stream (hyperglycemia).
 Sugars comes from Lot’s of different foods
 Sugar is used by the body for energy.
 Metabolic Syndrome
 Lifestyle disorders
 It is not disease

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

Pathophysiology of Diabetes
When you eat, your body
breaks food down into
Glucose. Glucose is a
type of sugar that is
your body’s
main source
of energy.

As blood glucose
rises, the body
sends a signal to
the pancreas, which
releases insulin.

Glucose is the currency of body
& every cell needs it

Acting as a key, insulin
binds to a place on the
cell wall (an insulin
receptor), unlocking
the cell so glucose can
pass into it. There,
most of the glucose is
used for energy right
away.

Blood glucose regulation
Blood glucose
goes up and down
throughout the
day:
 As your blood
glucose rises
(after a meal), the
pancreas releases
insulin.

3 Types of Diabetes
1. Type -1 Diabetes:
5-10% of diagnosed diabetes cases in humans
Immune system destroys beta cells in the
pancreas, the only cells in the body capable of
making insulin.
Previously known as juvenile diabetes because it
most often diagnosed in children and young
adults.
Unlike Type 2, diet and exercise cannot prevent
the disease.

Type of Diabetes ( Contd….)
Treatment of Type -1
Insulin replacement therapy – insulin is
supplemented to the body either by injection or
an insulin pump.
Strict dietary management is required -
carbohydrate tracking and monitoring glucose
levels.
Both of these have to be kept up for the life of the
patient.

2. Gestational Diabetes
Characterized by high glucose levels in pregnant
women who never showed signs of diabetes
before their pregnancy
Affects about 3-10% of pregnancies
It is believed that hormones released during
pregnancy increase insulin resistance

 Are overweight.
 Are 45 or older.
 Are physically inactive.
 Have a parent or sibling with type 2
diabetes..
 Have abnormal cholesterol levels.
 Have had gestational diabetes
 Have high blood pressure.
Type 2 Diabetes is more common in people who:

Type -2 Diabetes

Your cells don’t use
insulin properly. The
insulin can’t fully
“unlock” the cells
to allow glucose to
enter (insulin
resistance).
Your pancreas may not
produce enough insulin
(insulin deficiency).

DIET/FOOD
Diet is a sum of food consumed by the person.
Foods are
 MACRONUTRIENT
 Carbohydrates convert to Glucose
 Proteins convert to Amino Acids
 Fats convert to Fatty Acid
 MICRONUTRIENTS
 Vitamins are A, B,C,D E & K
 Minerals are inorganic substances such
as calcium, magnesium, sodium (salt), potassium, pho
sphorus,zinc, iron, copper, manganese, chromium, sele
nium, and iodine.

VIP vs DIP food
VIP FOOD DIP FOOD
Animal food/dairy
products
Fruits and vegetables
Packed and Processed
food like refined oil, Biscuits
etc

Diabetic Diet – DIP food
(Ketogenic foods)

Nature of DIP food
 DIP foods are living foods. Most of the DIP foods can
be consumed in raw form.
 A raw food diet is all about abundance and not
deprivation. A foodist, you can eat much, delicious,
health promoting plant based food as you need to

Yoga for Diabetes Mellitus

HOW YOGA WILL HELP FOR
DIABETIC MANAGEMENT
 Research : 1
The study assessed the effect of Pranayama on blood sugar
level in 50 normal individuals. This study showed a significant
fall in the blood sugar level soon after the practice of
Pranayama. This prompted us to study the effect
 Research: 2
Twenty eight type 2 diabetics and 4 type1 diabetics, were
studied for one month. They practiced 4 types of Pranayama
for 30 minutes followed by Shavasana for 15 minutes. Patients
developed a sense of well being within 7 to 10 days and
showed a significant fall in fasting and post-prandial blood
glucose values. In 17 patients, the requirement of drugs came
down significantly

HOW YOGA WILL HELP FOR
DIABETIC MANAGEMENT (Contd…)
 Research : 3
The effect of individual asanas,patients were randomly allotted
to different groups and they performed yogic practices of that
group for 45 minutes each day followed by relaxation practices
i.e. Shavasana and Makrasana.
 Research : 4
The research shows the different groups of asanas and their effect on
blood sugar both fasting and postprandial. These studies revealed that
optimum control of diabetes was achieved by practicing
Dhanurasana, Ardhamatsayendrasana, Halasana, Vajrasana,
Bhujangasana, Naukasana, Dhanurasana, Pachimotanasana etc.
along with Pranayama. Suryanamaskar and Kapalvathi
