The kidneys are a pair of excretory organs located retroperitoneally on either side of the vertebral column. They remove waste and regulate water and electrolyte balance. Each kidney contains an inner medulla and outer cortex. The kidneys receive blood supply from the renal arteries and drain into the renal veins. They are important for regulating blood pressure and red blood cell production. Kidney diseases can cause hypertension, renal failure and require dialysis in severe cases.
The liver performs many important metabolic functions including carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. It stores glycogen, gluconeogenesis, and converts galactose and fructose to glucose. The liver synthesizes, oxidizes, and transports lipids. It deaminates amino acids, forms urea to remove ammonia, and synthesizes plasma proteins. The liver also stores vitamins A, D, B12 and iron. It produces clotting factors and aids in detoxification through phase I and II reactions. Liver failure can cause hepatic encephalopathy due to increased ammonia levels.
The pancreas is a gland located near the stomach that functions as both an exocrine gland, producing enzymes to digest food, and an endocrine gland, producing hormones like insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels. It contains clusters of cells called islets of Langerhans that secrete different hormones - alpha cells secrete glucagon, beta cells secrete insulin, delta cells secrete somatostatin, and F cells secrete pancreatic polypeptide. Insulin and glucagon work to tightly control blood glucose levels. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the body does not properly use insulin. The two main types are type 1 diabetes where the pancreas produces little insulin and type

The urinary system removes waste from the bloodstream through the kidneys, stores it in the bladder, and excretes it from the body through the urethra. The kidneys filter waste from the blood to form urine, which travels through the ureters to the bladder. When full, the bladder contracts to expel urine through the urethra in a process called micturition. The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra work together to maintain homeostasis by regulating waste removal, fluid balance, and blood pressure.
The spleen is located in the upper left abdomen between the stomach and diaphragm. It is roughly 9-14 cm long and filters old blood cells from the bloodstream. The spleen receives blood from the splenic artery and drains into the splenic vein which joins the portal vein. It contains red pulp which filters blood and white pulp containing lymphatic tissue. The spleen plays an important role in the immune system and filtering blood.

The document discusses the anatomy and functions of the small intestine. It is divided into three parts - the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The small intestine contains villi and microvilli to increase surface area for absorption. Digestive enzymes in the intestinal juices and glands help break down nutrients into absorbable molecules. Peristaltic waves and segmentation contractions mix and propel food through the small intestine where most absorption occurs before entering the large intestine.
The document defines and describes various medical conditions and diseases related to kidney function and failure, including acidosis, familial hypokalemic hypertension, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, hemolytic uremic syndrome, end-stage renal disease, anti-GBM disease, osteodystrophy, prune belly syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, tuberous sclerosis, urinary tract infections, vasculitis, Wilms' tumor, and xenotransplantation.
The document provides an overview of the endocrine system, including:
1) It discusses the differences between the nervous and endocrine systems in their communication methods, target organs, and effects.
2) It describes the major endocrine glands and hormones, including the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, and their functions.
3) It explains disorders that can occur when endocrine gland secretions are abnormal, such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and goiter.
The pituitary gland is located at the base of the brain and is divided into two lobes - the anterior and posterior pituitary. The anterior pituitary is controlled by hormones from the hypothalamus that stimulate or inhibit the release of hormones regulating growth, metabolism, and reproduction. Growth hormone produced by the anterior pituitary stimulates growth in children and regulates metabolism. Too little growth hormone causes dwarfism while too much causes gigantism or acromegaly.
The gastrointestinal tract has several major functions:
1. Motility through peristalsis and other contractions to move food through the tract.
2. Secretion of enzymes and hormones to aid in digestion. The stomach secretes 2-3 liters of gastric juice per day.
3. Digestion through the breakdown of food molecules by enzymes to allow absorption in the small intestine.
4. Absorption of digested nutrients through the intestinal walls into the bloodstream.
This document discusses diabetes, including types, symptoms, treatments, and recent advances. It covers type 1 and type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and pre-diabetes.

The document discusses the endocrine functions of the pancreas. It describes the pancreas' location in the abdominal cavity behind the stomach and below the liver. The pancreas contains clusters of cells called islets of Langerhans that secrete three hormones - glucagon from alpha cells, insulin from beta cells, and somatostatin from delta cells. These hormones work together to regulate blood sugar levels. Diabetes occurs when there is a deficiency or absence of insulin from the beta cells, leading to high blood sugar. The two main types of diabetes are type 1 diabetes, which is usually diagnosed in childhood and is due to destruction of the beta cells, and type 2 diabetes, which accounts for 90% of cases and is
The pancreas is a retroperitoneal gland with both exocrine and endocrine functions. It is 15-20cm in length and divided into the head, neck, body, and tail. The pancreas produces enzymes that are released into the small intestine to aid in digestion and produces hormones like insulin and glucagon that are released into the bloodstream to regulate blood sugar levels. It has both an extensive arterial blood supply and venous drainage that parallels the arteries. The pancreas is innervated by both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
This document provides an overview of the gastrointestinal system, including its main parts and functions.

c) Digestion and absorption
d) Disorders of GIT (definitions only)
The digestive system begins at the mouth and includes the esophagus, stomach, and small and large intestines. Food is ingested and broken down through both mechanical and chemical digestion. Mechanical digestion begins with chewing in the mouth. Chemical digestion involves enzymes that break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in specific areas of the digestive tract. Digested nutrients are then absorbed through the walls of the tract and transported throughout the body.
The pancreas develops from dorsal and ventral buds originating in the duodenum. During development, the ventral bud rotates posteriorly to fuse with the dorsal bud. The pancreas is located behind the stomach and has both exocrine and endocrine functions. It has a head, neck, body and tail. The main pancreatic duct drains the exocrine pancreas and opens at the major duodenal papilla along with the common bile duct. Developmental anomalies include pancreatic divisum, annular pancreas, ectopic pancreas, agenesis/hypoplasia, and accessory pancreatic lobes.

The peritoneum is a serous membrane that lines the abdominal and pelvic cavities. It has two layers - the parietal peritoneum lines the walls of the cavities, while the visceral peritoneum covers the internal organs. Between these layers is the potential space called the peritoneal cavity. Organs can be either intraperitoneal, mostly covered by peritoneum, or retroperitoneal, only partially covered. The peritoneal cavity is divided into the greater and lesser sacs, which are connected through an opening. Ligaments and omenta connect organs using folds of peritoneum. Recesses, spaces and gutters in the peritoneum also have clinical significance.

HERE’S WHY, AND HOW AN ANCESTRAL DIET CAN HELP PREVENT AND MANAGE THIS COMMON DISEASE.
The pancreas is a gland located behind the stomach that has both exocrine and endocrine functions. It produces enzymes to help digest food and hormones like insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar. Disorders of the pancreas include diabetes, pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (Type 1) or when the body does not respond properly to insulin (Type 2).
Understanding Diabetes and Caring for the Diabetic Client Emma Nazzaro
1. Insulin helps the body convert glucose from food into energy and regulates blood sugar levels.
2. Diabetes is defined as a condition where the body cannot properly use glucose for energy due to insufficient insulin production or insulin resistance.
3. There are two main types of diabetes - Type 1 where the body does not produce insulin and Type 2 where cells are resistant to insulin.
4. Caregivers can help protect diabetic clients by assisting with personal hygiene, foot care to prevent injuries, and monitoring for hyperglycemia or hypoglycemic symptoms.
Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by high blood sugar levels. There are two main types: Type 1 occurs when the body does not produce insulin, while Type 2 occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or the insulin it produces does not work properly. Long-term complications of diabetes include damage to blood vessels and nerves, which can lead to conditions affecting the eyes, kidneys, heart, and feet. The pancreas normally regulates blood sugar levels through the hormones insulin and glucagon.
The document provides an overview of diabetes mellitus, including its definition, types, pathophysiology, and complications. It defines diabetes as a disease marked by high blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes is characterized by an inability to produce insulin, while type 2 results from insulin resistance or insufficient insulin production. Complications can include hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, damage to small blood vessels (retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy), and damage to large blood vessels (leading to stroke, heart disease, peripheral vascular disease).
Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by high blood sugar levels due to either insufficient insulin production or resistance to insulin. There are two main types: Type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the pancreas produces little to no insulin, while Type 2 is typically linked to obesity and physical inactivity where the body does not properly use or produce enough insulin. Symptoms include increased thirst, frequent urination, unexpected weight loss, fatigue, and vision changes. Diagnosis involves tests such as A1C, random blood sugar, and oral glucose tolerance tests. Treatment depends on diabetes type but may include insulin therapy, oral medications, diet, exercise, and weight control.
Diabetes is a disorder of sugar metabolism that exists in two forms: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 is an autoimmune disorder where the pancreas fails to produce insulin, while type 2 is caused by poor dietary and lifestyle choices over many years and is preventable. Obesity is the single greatest risk factor for diabetes. Statistics show rising rates of obesity and diabetes in the UK and other western countries. Addressing obesity and diabetes requires lifestyle changes to diet and exercise, but changing behaviors is difficult. Leptin, a hormone that regulates appetite, may play a role in the connection between obesity and diabetes by causing leptin resistance similar to insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. Complications from uncontrolled diabetes can be severe and
Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by high blood glucose levels due to the body's inability to produce or properly use insulin. There are two main types of diabetes - Type 1 is caused by an autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, while Type 2 is associated with insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Both types result in insufficient insulin and subsequent hyperglycemia. The document provides historical context on diabetes and outlines the roles of insulin, pancreatic hormones, and the metabolic processes involved in both healthy and diabetic states.
Diabetes is a disease in which blood glucose (sugar) levels are too high. Glucose comes from the food you eat. Insulin is a hormone that helps glucose enter cells to supply them with energy. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce insulin.
Diabetes mellitus occurs when the body has trouble regulating blood glucose levels, either because it does not produce enough insulin (Type 1) or because cells are resistant to insulin's effects (Type 2). High blood glucose can lead to serious complications affecting many parts of the body over time. Treatment for Type 1 is insulin administration, while Type 2 focuses on lifestyle changes and medications to lower blood glucose and increase insulin sensitivity. Gestational diabetes involves insulin resistance during pregnancy that usually resolves after birth.
Diabetes mellitus occurs when the body has trouble transporting sugar (glucose) from the blood into cells. This is usually due to either the pancreas not producing enough insulin or cells becoming resistant to insulin. There are two main types of diabetes - type 1 is caused by an autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing cells while type 2 is related to obesity and lifestyle factors. Both types can cause serious long-term complications by damaging blood vessels if not properly managed through lifestyle changes, medications, and/or insulin administration.
This document provides an overview of diabetes and a case study example. It begins by outlining the objectives of understanding the role of the endocrine system in regulating blood glucose and distinguishing between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It then discusses a case study of a 14-year-old male brought to the emergency room unconscious who is found to have low vital signs. Laboratory results for the patient show extremely high blood glucose, low pH, and urine ketones, indicating diabetic ketoacidosis from not taking his insulin. The patient recovers after treatment with insulin and fluids.

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.

11. THE ROLE OF GLUCOSE
Glucose — a sugar — is a source of energy
for the cells that make up muscles and other
tissues.
Glucose comes from two major sources:
food and your liver.
Sugar is absorbed into the bloodstream,
where it enters cells with the help of
insulin.
Liver stores and makes glucose.
When glucose levels are low, The liver
breaks down stored glycogen into
glucose to keep your glucose level within
a normal range.
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 11
12. HOW INSULIN WORKS
Insulin is a hormone that comes from a gland situated
behind and below the stomach (pancreas).
The pancreas secretes insulin into the bloodstream.
The insulin circulates, enabling sugar to enter your
cells.
Insulin lowers the amount of sugar in your
bloodstream.
As your blood sugar level drops, so does the secretion
of insulin from your pancreas.

Diabetes with electro-homeopathy
13. PANCREAS
The pancreas contains glands that release
substances to help with digestion and
control blood sugar. Type 1 and Type 2
diabetes are common pancreatic conditions.
Other pancreas conditions include
pancreatitis and pancreatic cance
The pancreas is an organ in the back of
your abdomen (belly). It is part of
your digestive system.
The pancreas is an organ and a gland.
Glands are organs that produce and release
substances in the body.
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 13
14. The pancreas performs two main functions
Exocrine function: Produces substances (enzymes) that help with digestion.
Endocrine function: Sends out hormones that control the amount of sugar in your
bloodstream.
• What is the exocrine system?
• The exocrine system consists of glands that make substances that travel through a duct
(tube). Besides the pancreas, the exocrine system includes:
• What is the endocrine system?
• The endocrine system consists of glands that release hormones into your blood. These
glands control many of your body’s functions.
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 14
15. WHAT DOES PANCREAS DO?
It produces enzymes that help to break down food (digestion).
Your pancreas releases the following enzymes:
Lipase: Works with bile (a fluid produced by the liver) to break
down fats.
Amylase: Breaks down carbohydrates for energy.
Protease: Breaks down proteins.
The endocrine glands in pancreas release hormones that control
blood sugar (glucose). These hormones are:
Insulin: Reduces high blood sugar levels.
Glucagon: Increases low blood sugar levels.
Body needs balanced blood sugar to help with kidneys, liver and
brain. Heart and circulatory system and nervous system also need
balanced levels of insulin and glucagon to function.

16. CAUSE OF DIABETES
1-Worry/pensiveness + overthinking
2-This occurs when your pancreas does not produce
any insulin or enough insulin.
3-when the produced insulin does not work properly.
4-Less glucose converting into glycogen by liver.
5-Immune system — attacks and destroys insulin-producing
cells.

17. RISK FACTORS
Emotions are mental stimuli that influence
our everyday lives. Under normal
circumstances, they are not a cause of an
illness but if they go ‘wrong’ they’re
considered as one of the major internal
causes of disease.
18. WORRY/PENSIVENESS + OVERTHINKING
• Worry is the emotion of the spleen/stomach/pancreas network, organs.
Too much pensiveness, worrying and insecurity can weaken our ability to
digest – simply knot the energy. When we are worried to a state of
anxiety, we find it hard to digest and accept a situation or life event. Lack
of trust and ease towards the experiences and the foods we take in to our
lives will make it impossible for us to digest them. This can make us feel
tired, lethargic, and unable to concentrate. Also here’s a bit of a paradox –
too much mental stimulation can actually cause mental heaviness, the
same as overwork. A week spleen can also be the cause of stubborn
weight problems.
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 18
19. FOUR ORIGINS OF ANXIETY
1-Lungs :- If related to the lungs and large intestine, energy blockage can provoke shallow and irregular
breathing or even holding of breath. The large intestine can be detrimentally affected by anxiety, making
one more prone to issues like ulcerative colitis and IBS.
2-Kidney:- Kidney and bladder issues could also be at the root of this emotion. Our adrenals regulate
our stress response and when adrenal problems become chronic, they can cause anxiety. Anxiety can also
be caused by disharmony between the kidneys and a blazing heart fire, in this case rapid heart palpitations
are experienced.
3- Liver:- Anxiety can stem from liver imbalance too, when longstanding anger and irritation goes
unresolved. In this case anxiety manifests as nervous tension, irritability, and insomnia.
4-Spleen:- Anxiety from excess worry and pensiveness stems from spleen and stomach imbalance. This
can cause stomach swelling and bloating after eating.

OGTT less then140 mg /dl 140mg/dl to 199 mg/dl 200 mg/dl or higher
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 22
23. PREDIABETES
Prediabetes means you have a higher than
normal blood sugar level. It's not high
enough to be considered type 2 diabetes yet.
But without lifestyle changes, adults and
children with prediabetes are at high risk to
develop type 2 diabetes.
24. TYPE 2 DIABETES
Type 2 diabetes is an impairment in the
way the body regulates and uses sugar
(glucose) as a fuel. This long-term (chronic)
condition results in too much sugar
circulating in the bloodstream.
25. GESTATIONAL DIABETES
During pregnancy, the placenta produces
hormones to sustain your pregnancy. These
hormones make your cells more resistant to
insulin.
Normally, Pancreas responds by producing
enough extra insulin to overcome this resistance.
But sometimes your pancreas can't keep up. When
this happens, too little glucose gets into your cells
and too much stays in your blood, resulting in
gestational diabetes.
26. TYPE 1 DIABETES
The exact cause of type 1 diabetes is unknown. What is
known is that immune system — which normally fights
harmful bacteria or viruses — attacks and destroys your
insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. This leaves you
with little or no insulin. Instead of being transported into
your cells, sugar builds up in bloodstream.
Type 1 is thought to be caused by a combination of
genetic susceptibility and environmental factors, though
exactly what those factors are is still unclear.

27. COMPLICATIONS
Long-term complications of diabetes
develop gradually. The longer you have
diabetes — and the less controlled your
blood sugar — the higher the risk of
complications. Eventually, diabetes
complications may be disabling or even
life-threatening. In fact, prediabetes can
lead to type 2 diabetes. Possible
complications include:
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 27
28. COMPLICATIONS
Diabetes with electro-homeopathy 28
Heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease. Diabetes majorly
increases the risk of many heart problems. These can include coronary
artery disease with chest pain (angina), heart attack, stroke and
narrowing of arteries (atherosclerosis). If you have diabetes, you're
more likely to have heart disease or stroke.
Nerve damage (neuropathy). Too much sugar can injure the walls of
the tiny blood vessels (capillaries) that nourish the nerves, especially in
the legs. This can cause tingling, numbness, burning or pain that usually
begins at the tips of the toes or fingers and gradually spreads upward.
Damage to the nerves related to digestion can cause problems with
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation. For men, it may lead to
erectile dysfunction.
29. COMPLICATIONS
Kidney damage (nephropathy). The kidneys hold millions of tiny blood vessel
clusters (glomeruli) that filter waste from the blood. Diabetes can damage this delicate
filtering system.
Eye damage (retinopathy). Diabetes can damage the blood vessels of the eye (diabetic
retinopathy). This could lead to blindness.
Foot damage. Nerve damage in the feet or poor blood flow to the feet increases the
risk of many foot complications.
Skin and mouth conditions. Diabetes may leave you more prone to skin problems,
including bacterial and fungal infections.
Hearing impairment. Hearing problems are more common in people with diabetes.

30. COMPLICATIONS OF
GESTATIONAL DIABETES
Most women who have gestational
diabetes deliver healthy babies.
However, untreated or uncontrolled
blood sugar levels can cause problems
for you and your baby.
