Diabetes is a condition where the body cannot properly process sugar due to a lack of insulin, which is produced by the pancreas. There are two main types of diabetes - Type 1 where the body does not produce insulin at all, and Type 2 where the body does not produce enough insulin or the cells ignore the insulin. Left untreated, diabetes can lead to serious health complications and even death over time.
There are two main types of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body destroys insulin-producing cells, requiring insulin treatment. Type 2 diabetes results from the body not producing enough insulin or cells ignoring insulin, and can usually be treated through diet and medication changes. Both types result in high blood glucose levels over time and can lead to chronic complications affecting the kidneys, nerves, feet, eyes, heart, and other organs if not properly managed. Common symptoms of high blood glucose include extreme thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision, and weight changes. Treatment focuses on monitoring blood sugar levels, exercise, diet, medications including insulin injections, and preventing severe long-term health issues.
Diabetes is a serious global health issue that can lead to blindness, kidney failure, heart disease, stroke, and amputations. The document discusses that healthy diet and exercise could prevent up to 80% of type 2 diabetes cases, yet at least 50% of people with diabetes are unaware they have the condition. It also notes that every 10 seconds someone dies from diabetes or related causes. The UN designated November 14 as World Diabetes Day to raise global awareness of the disease and methods for care and prevention.
Nearly 8% of Americans have diabetes, and many more are at risk. Diabetes is a disease where the body does not properly produce or use insulin, resulting in high blood glucose levels. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1, where the body does not produce insulin, and type 2, which affects 90% of diabetics and involves insulin resistance. Treatments depend on the type and severity of diabetes and may include diet, exercise, pills, or insulin shots completely necessary for type 1 diabetes but also used for more severe type 2 cases.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. This causes the pancreas to no longer produce insulin, which controls blood sugar levels. People with type 1 diabetes must inject insulin daily to survive, as well as carefully monitor their blood sugar levels. Currently there is no cure for type 1 diabetes.

Diabetes is a condition where the body cannot properly process glucose due to a lack of insulin or insulin resistance. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 occurs most often in children/young adults and is caused by the immune system attacking insulin-producing cells, while type 2 accounts for 90-95% of cases and is associated with obesity and physical inactivity. Symptoms can include blurred vision, fatigue, frequent urination, and weight loss. Treatment involves lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, blood sugar monitoring, and sometimes insulin or other medications to control blood sugar levels and prevent complications. Good control is important to avoid damage to organs and tissues.
Type 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes, is an autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. It is characterized by fluctuating blood sugar levels that must be managed through insulin injections or pumps. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation holds walks and fundraisers to support research for a cure and improve the lives of the millions of children living with type 1 diabetes.

The document discusses the causes, symptoms, and prevention of types 1 and 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the immune system attacks and destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Its symptoms include extreme thirst and frequent urination. While there is no way to prevent type 1 diabetes, managing blood sugar levels through insulin therapy and monitoring is important. Type 2 diabetes is caused by the body becoming resistant to insulin and not using it efficiently, potentially due to genetic and lifestyle factors like poor diet and lack of exercise. Maintaining a healthy diet, daily exercise, and normal weight can help prevent and manage type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes is a disease where blood glucose levels are too high because the body either doesn't produce enough insulin or the cells don't respond properly to insulin. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 where the body doesn't produce insulin and type 2 where the body doesn't properly use or produce enough insulin. Over time, high blood glucose can cause serious health problems damaging nerves, eyes, kidneys and increasing risks of heart disease and stroke. Blood tests are used to diagnose diabetes with normal levels below 100 mg/dL and prediabetes between 100-125 mg/dL. Treatment focuses on exercise, diet, medication and glucose monitoring.
Diabetes is the most common lifestyle disorder in today's time. It need lifestyle modification. As experts suggests there is no cure for diabetes, but balanced diet and regular activity will help in managing the condition.
Diabetes is a metabolic disease where the body does not produce enough insulin or is unable to use insulin properly, causing blood sugar levels to rise. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 where the body does not produce insulin and type 2 which is more common in middle-aged and older adults where the body does not properly use insulin. Untreated diabetes can lead to health issues such as slow healing, infections, vision problems, and fatigue. Pre-diabetes affects 84 million people where blood sugar levels are high but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.
Diabetes is a disease where the body does not produce enough or properly use insulin, a hormone that allows glucose to enter cells and be used for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose builds up in the bloodstream leading to high blood glucose levels which can damage the heart, eyes, nerves, and kidneys if left untreated. There are three main types of diabetes: Type 1 where the body does not produce insulin; Type 2 where the body does not produce enough insulin or use it properly, often affecting overweight people; and gestational diabetes which occurs during pregnancy but usually disappears after.

Diabetes can be a silent killer if left undetected and is the leading cause of blindness and kidney failure. It can also increase your chances of having a heart attack, stroke or infection.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the pancreas stops producing insulin. It occurs most often in childhood and adolescence. People with type 1 diabetes must take insulin through injections or an insulin pump to survive. Managing diabetes involves carefully monitoring blood sugar levels, administering insulin, following a meal plan, and exercising regularly. Education of both children and parents is important so they can properly care for the disease.
Last year, an organization helped over 17,000 type 2 diabetics stop needing prescription drugs or insulin injections to manage their blood sugar levels. This year, they aim to help over 30,000 diabetics do the same using techniques that are twice as effective as leading drugs and can reverse type 2 diabetes symptoms without medications. However, these techniques have been suppressed by pharmaceutical companies for decades in order to protect billions in profits from diabetes drug sales.

Causes, Symptoms, and Early Diagnosis of DiabetesRodney Goodie
Diabetes is a long-term disorder marked by unusually high blood sugar (glucose) levels. The pancreas produces insulin, which reduces blood glucose levels. Diabetes is caused by a lack of or inadequate insulin synthesis or the body's inability to utilize insulin correctly.
Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are the two main forms of diabetes. The other types of diabetes are gestational diabetes and prediabetes.
In the United States, diabetes affects roughly 34.2 million individuals (10.5 percent of the population), while another estimated 88 million people have prediabetes and are unaware of the condition. In addition, an estimated 7.3 million people have diabetes that is undiagnosed.

Treatment and Drugs for Diabetes:
For a person suffering from Type 1 Diabetes, the treatment is going to need a lifetime of commitment. Some of the daily routine that needs to be followed is as followed:
•Taking insulin
•Exercising regularly and making sure to maintain a healthy weight
•Eating healthy foods
•Monitoring the blood sugar level
The goal of the treatment is to make sure that the blood sugar level is kept at bay. Insulin level has to be maintained in the bloodstream and there are two different ways of injecting insulin into the body.
•With a fine needle and a syringe
•An insulin pen, with cartridge filled with insulin
•An insulin pump
Healthy need of food as well as physical activity is required in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle for people who are suffering from Diabetes Type 1.
The term ‘diabetes’ means excessive urination and the word ‘mellitus’ means honey.
Diabetes mellitus is a lifelong condition caused by a lack, or insufficiency of insulin. Insulin is a hormone – a substance of vital importance that is made by your pancreas. Insulin acts like a key to open the doors into your cells, letting sugar (glucose) in. In diabetes, the pancreas makes too little insulin to enable all the sugar in your blood to get into your muscle and other cells to produce energy. If sugar can’t get into the cells to be used, it builds up in the bloodstream. Therefore, diabetes is characterized by high blood sugar (glucose) levels.

Diabetes is a disease where blood glucose levels are too high due to the body either not producing enough insulin or not properly using the insulin it does produce. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1 where the body does not produce insulin; type 2 where cells do not properly respond to insulin; and gestational diabetes which occurs during pregnancy. Type 1 diabetes is treated through insulin administration and managing diet and exercise, as high blood glucose can lead to serious short and long-term health complications if not properly managed.
This document summarizes several articles about diabetes, its symptoms, types, causes, and treatment. It discusses that diabetes occurs when blood sugar levels are too high due to the body not producing enough insulin or being unable to use insulin properly. The main types of diabetes are type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes during pregnancy. Symptoms include extreme hunger, thirst, weight loss, frequent urination, and blurred vision. Treatment involves monitoring blood sugar levels, eating a healthy diet, exercising, and potentially taking insulin or oral medication. The articles provide tips for managing diabetes through diet, exercise, testing blood sugar levels, and seeing a doctor regularly.
This document discusses strategies for managing blood sugar levels for those with diabetes or pre-diabetes. It recommends reducing after-meal spikes in blood sugar by slowing the absorption of glucose from foods. It emphasizes choosing complex carbohydrates and fiber-rich foods over refined sugars and processed carbs. It also stresses the importance of optimal nutrient intake to support insulin function and sensitivity. Maintaining a healthy weight and lifestyle can help prevent nutritional and oxidative stress on the body.
The document discusses the five needs of a cell which are oxygen, water, nutrients, waste elimination, and protection from poisons. It then discusses diabetes, including the types (Type 1 and Type 2), symptoms, complications if uncontrolled, and ways to prevent or manage it such as lifestyle changes, exercise, and medication. Diabetes is caused by the body's inability to properly use sugar from food for energy due to insufficient insulin production or effectiveness.
This document compares and contrasts diabetes and hypoglycemia. While both involve issues with blood sugar levels, diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by high blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin production or insulin resistance. Hypoglycemia, on the other hand, is caused by low blood sugar levels below 70 mg/dL due to factors like medications, lack of food, or exercise. The document explores the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of both conditions.

The document is a class presentation outline by Sanjana, a second year student, on the topic of Diabetes Mellitus. The presentation covers the definition of diabetes, its types (Type 1 and Type 2), symptoms, causes, risk factors, complications, diagnostic tests, prevention and treatment. The objectives are to define diabetes, explain its epidemiology, types, causes, symptoms, risk factors, complications, diagnostic tests, prevention and treatment. The presentation contains detailed sections on these topics with definitions, statistics, and explanations.
What Causes Diabetes? The Possible Reasonskittycolbert7
Diabetes is a serious condition when your body cannot make or effectively use a hormone called insulin. Since there is insufficient insulin, your body cannot move glucose from your bloodstream into your muscle, fat, and liver cells.
It leads to a glucose surplus in your bloodstream. Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are the most common forms. Still, there are other forms, such as prediabetes and gestational diabetes.
If you’re living with diabetes, you probably wondered how you developed diabetes or whether your children will develop it, too. Sometimes you inherit a predisposition to diabetes, or something in your environment triggers it.
While the exact cause of most types of diabetes is unknown, age, gender, weight, genetic makeup, family medical history, ethnicity, and environmental factors can influence the risk of developing diabetes. Therefore, there is no common cause of diabetes that fits every diabetes subgroup, as it varies depending on the individual and the type.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the body has auto-antibodies that destroy the insulin-producing pancreatic cells. As these cells decrease, the body’s ability to create insulin decreases. The little to no insulin causes glucose to build up in your blood.
Because the destroyed pancreatic cells cannot supply the body with sufficient insulin, type 1 diabetes leaves you insulin-dependent for life. Therefore, it’s also known as insulin-dependent diabetes. Studies show that about 5%–10% of diabetics are type 1.
==> Simple 1 Minute “Diet Hack” REVERSES Type 2 Diabetes
For decades, there was a common misconception of type 1 diabetes being a juvenile disease that typically appears in early childhood or adolescence. However, type 1 diabetes can develop at any age but often gets diagnosed at a younger age.
The destruction of the insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells varies from person to person. Some people experience a gradual decrease in beta cells, while some lose the functioning beta cells exceptionally quickly. During the onset, the pancreas can still produce some insulin. Therefore, an outside source of insulin is necessary during this phase. Still, as the body continues to reduce the amount of insulin produced, insulin levels from an external source must get adjusted.

Diabetes is diagnosed through blood tests and managed through lifestyle changes like diet and exercise as well as medication like insulin. Treatment aims to control blood sugar levels to prevent complications.
Diabetes is a disease that affects your body's ability to produce or use insulin. Insulin is a hormone. When your body turns the food you eat into energy (also called sugar or glucose), insulin is released to help transport this energy to the cells. ... There are two main types of diabetes: Type 1 and Type 2 .
This document discusses diabetes mellitus and the nurse's role in managing it. It defines diabetes as a group of diseases involving problems with the hormone insulin that can occur when the pancreas produces little or no insulin or the body does not respond appropriately to insulin. It then discusses the types of diabetes (type 1, type 2, gestational), risk factors, signs and symptoms, tests, and complications. Finally, it outlines the necessary skills for nurses in diabetes management, including analytical skills, communication skills, attention to detail, and interpersonal skills to effectively provide care and make appropriate treatment adjustments.
"Diabetes and exercise" -Biology investigatory project (class 12)Sailesh5908
Cdt. S Sailesh Kumar submitted a biology project on diabetes and exercise. He acknowledges the guidance of his biology master Mr. Aravind Arunkumar. The project discusses the types and symptoms of diabetes, how exercise can help control blood sugar levels and regulate insulin sensitivity for those with diabetes. It recommends aerobic exercise, strength training, and flexibility exercises for diabetes management and prevention. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet, exercise and weight control can help prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes is a chronic condition where the body cannot properly process glucose due to not enough insulin production or cells resisting insulin. There are three main types: Type 1 is an autoimmune disease destroying insulin production; Type 2 is caused by lifestyle factors like obesity; Gestational occurs during pregnancy. Both short and long term complications can damage organs if not controlled through diet, exercise, medication and regular screening. Prevention focuses on maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic condition that affects the body's ability to regulate blood sugar levels. It is caused by a deficiency of the hormone insulin, which helps the body convert sugar from food into energy. People with diabetes often have high levels of sugar in their blood, which can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. Symptoms of diabetes include excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, weight loss, and blurred vision. Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes, such as exercising regularly, eating healthy, and taking medications, as well as monitoring blood sugar levels. With proper treatment and management, people with diabetes can enjoy a normal life. Know more from the documents
This document provides information about diabetes mellitus, including the different types (Type 1 and Type 2), symptoms, causes, diagnostic tests, treatments, and nursing interventions. It defines diabetes as a condition where the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the body does not properly respond to insulin, preventing glucose from being absorbed into cells. The most common type is Type 2 diabetes, which is often associated with obesity and lack of exercise and usually treated through diet and oral medications. Nursing care involves education on diet, medication administration, glucose monitoring, foot care, exercise, and smoking cessation.
This document provides information on screening methods for antidiabetic drugs. It discusses various in vivo and in vitro models used to screen drugs, including chemically-induced diabetes models using alloxan and streptozotocin in animals, genetically diabetic animal models like NOD mice and BB rats, and isolated tissue and cell-based in vitro models. A variety of animal models aim to mimic types 1 and 2 diabetes by destroying pancreatic beta cells or inducing insulin resistance. These preclinical models are used to evaluate new drugs' ability to lower blood glucose levels and treat diabetes symptoms before human trials.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

DIABETES
2. I would like to discuss about diabetes. I have arranged
my discussion as:
1. Definition of Diabetes
2. Classification of Diabetes
3. The main causes of Diabetes
4. Symptoms of Diabetes
5. Complications of Diabetes
6. Diagnosis
7. Prevention
3. Definition
Diabetes is a disease in which out blood glucose or
blood sugar level is too high. Blood glucose is our
main source of energy and it is derived from the food
what we consume. Insulin is a hormone secreted by
the pancreas helps blood glucose to be metabolized
in to our cells to be used for energy. Sometimes our
body doesn’t produce enough insulin or doesn’t use
insulin well. Then glucose stays in our blood and
cannot reach into the cells for energy. This leads too
much of blood glucose accumulation which can cause
health problem. This situation is called diabetes
4. Classification
Diabetes can be classified into following categories
1. Type 1 Diabetes
Previously called as Insulin dependent or juvenile
diabetes. In this type pancreas doesn’t produce
enough Insulin or produces very little Insulin. It is
usually diagnosed in children, teens and young
adults but it can develop any ages.
5. Classification
2. Type 2 Diabetes
It is called Non Insulin dependant diabetes (NIDM).
This type occurs when our body become resistant to
Insulin and is associated with genetics and lifestyle
choice.
3. Gestational Diabetes
This type occurs during pregnancy and usually
disappears after giving birth. It can occur at any
stage of pregnancy. It is common in second and third
trimester.
6. Causes of Type 1 Diabetes
The exact cause is unknown. What is known? that is
our immune system (which normally fights against
harmful bacteria or viruses) attacks and destroys our
Insulin producing cells in Pancreas. So our pancreas
doesn’t make enough insulin. We know without
insulin blood sugar cannot get into the cells and
accumulates in blood stream. This is the main factor
of high blood sugar. It is also to be thought to cause
by a combination of Genetic susceptibilities and
environmental factors.
7. Causes of Type 2 Diabetes
In type 2 Diabetes our cells become resistant to the
action of Insulin and our pancreas is unable to
secrete enough Insulin to overcome this resistance.
Exactly why this happens is unknown, although it is
believed that Genetic and Environmental factors play
a role in the development of type 2 Diabetes
8. Causes of Gestational Diabetes
During pregnancy placenta produces hormones to
sustain the pregnancy. These hormones make your
cells more resistant to Insulin. So ultimate result is
Gestational diabetes.
9. Common Symptoms of Diabetes
All kinds of diabetes have same common symptoms these
are:
1.Increased thirst
2.Frequent urination / urinate a lot often at night.
3.Increased hunger / you are hungry all the time
4.Unintended weight loss
5. Extreme fatigue / you feel tired all the time
6.Blurred vision / you can not see properly
7. Slow healing sores
8. Frequent infection
9.Dry Skin
10. Complications of Diabetes
The complication of diabetes may lead to very serious health condition.
Higher blood sugar destroys organs and tissues throughout our body
Complications associated with diabetes are:
1. Heart Diseases ( Heart attack or Heart stroke)
2. Neuropathy (nerve cell damage)
3. Nephropathy (The deterioration of Kidneys)
4. Retinopathy (It is caused by damage to the blood vessel of light sensitive
tissue at the back of the eyes)
5. Hearing loss (you can not hear properly)
6. Foot damage such as infection and sores that don’t heal
7. Skin damage
8. Depression ( is a common and serious medical illness that negatively
affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act.
9. Uncontrolled Gestational diabetes can lead to problem both mother and
baby
11. How is Diabetes diagnosed
Diabetes is diagnosed by checking blood glucose level.
There are three tests that we can do in our
Laboratory. These are:
1.Fasting Plasma glucose: It is done after 8 – 10 hours
remaining fasting condition, basically it is done at
the morning. A fasting blood sugar level of 99mg/dL
or lower is normal.
100 -125mg/dL indicate you have pre diabetes and
126mg/dL or higher indicates you have diabetes
12. 2. Random plasma glucose test:
This test can be done without fasting. The normal
range of RBS is 200 mg/dl 11.1 mmol/L or less. If
you have diabetes your RBS 200 mg/dl or more
13. 3. A1C test: This test also called HbA1C or glycated
hemoglobin test. It provides your average blood
glucose level over the past two or three months. The
test measures the amount of glucose attached to
hemoglobin and protein in your red cells that carries
oxygen. You don’t need to fast before doing this test.
If you have diabetes your HbA1C value is 6.5 % or
more.
14. What are the prevention of diabetes
Prevention is specially important if you are currently at an increased
risk of diabetes. There are 5 tips for the prevention of diabetes
1.Lose extra weight: Losing weight reduces the risk of diabetes
2.Be more physically active: There are many benefits to regular
physical activity. Exercise can help you
a. lose weight
b. Lower your blood sugar
c. Boost your sensitivity to insulin
3. Eat healthy plant foods. Plants provide vitamins, minerals and
carbohydrates in your diet.
4. Eat healthy fats
5. Skip fat diet and make healthier choice
Consult your physician and take necessary action.
