What Diabetic people eat?
Diabetes in India is chronic disease that takes place when the pancreas
doesn’t produce enough insulin or when the body is unable to react to the
insulin produced by the pancreas. Hypereglycemia, or increased blood sugar
level, is a symptom caused by uncontrolled sugar levels in the blood which
over time leads to many serious damages to body functioning, especially the
nerves and blood vessel.

2 Types of Diabetes India
Prediabetes India
It is a serious health condition where sugar levels in the blood are higher than
normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes.
If you have prediabetes, the cells in your body don’t respond to insulin and
the pancreas makes more insulin to try to get cells to respond properly.
Eventually, the pancreas can’t keep up, and blood sugar rises which is setting
the stage for prediabetics and also building a path for type 2 diabetes

Types 2 Diabetes India
This type of diabetes is formerly known as the non-insulin dependent type of
diabetes which is caused when the body is poorly managing body’s insulin.
The pancreas has three different types of cells namely alpha cells, beta cells
and gamma cells. These cells are collectively known as islets of langerhans .
When there is malfunctioning of beta cells , insulin is not properly secreted in
the blood. since alpha cells are responsible for maintainence of glucose level
in blood, the blood glucose level increases due to malfunctioning of beta cells
. This increase of blood glucose level is termed as Diabetes Mellitus Type-2.
Causes: -
● Excess body weight
● Physical inactivity
● Excess fast-food intake
● Lethargy
● Sedentary Lifestyle
● obesity
● Family History
● Genetic
● Pancreatic disorders
● Race and Ethnicity
● Blood Lipid Levels
● Age
● Pre-diabetics
● In-appropriate fat distribution
Symptoms
May be similar to those of type 1 diabetes but they are mostly less marked,
which causes the disease to be diagnosed in a long time, after which
complications have already
● Polydipsia
● Polyphasia
● Polyuria
● Neuropathy
● Nephropathy
● Retinopathy
● Weight loss
● Fatigue

Type 1 Diabetes India
Type 1 diabetes is formerly known as an insulin-dependent type of diabetes.
This type of diabetes is characterized by a lack of production of insulin in the
body and it requires daily injections of insulin
Causes
● Nonactive lifestyle
● Family member with diabetes history
● Injury to or removal of the pancreas
● Sedentary lifestyle
Symptoms
● Excessive thirst
● Increased urination
● Unexplained weight loss

GESTATIONAL DIABETES India
Gestational diabetes happens when the body can’t make enough insulin
during pregnancy. During pregnancy, the women’s body makes more
hormones and goes through many other changes such as gaining weight, due
to which body cells use insulin less effectively, this condition is called insulin
resistance.
Women with gestational diabetes are at an increased risk of complications
during pregnancy and during delivery. there is also a possibility that women
with this type of diabetes, and their children are also at increased risk of
developing type 2 diabetes in the future.
This type of diabetes is usually diagnosed through prenatal screening, rather
than usually reported symptoms.

Covid-19 and diabetes India
Covid-19 is a new and potentially serious coronavirus. It can lead to lung
infection (pneumonia), renal failure, and even death. The covid-19 virus
appears to make older persons and people with pre-existing medical disorders
(such as diabetes, heart disease, and asthma) more susceptible to becoming
seriously unwell. When people with diabetes develop a viral infection, it could
be harder to treat due to variation in glucose levels in the blood
What do people need to know and do?
● Make plans in case you become unwell.
● Make sure you have all important contact information on hand in
case you need it.
● Always maintain a record of your sugar level chart. Blood
glucose levels should be monitored regularly to avoid issues
caused by excessive or low blood sugar.
● If you have flu-like symptoms (high fever, cough, or difficulty
breathing), you should see a doctor. If you’re coughing up
phlegm, it might be an indication of an illness, so get medical
help right once.
● Any infection can boost your blood glucose levels and increase
your need for fluids, so make sure you have plenty to drink.
● Ensure that you have a sufficient supply of the diabetic drugs you
require. Consider what you’d require if you were forced to isolate
yourself for a few weeks.
● Make sure you have a sufficient amount of food to eat.
● Make sure you’ll be able to react quickly if your blood glucose
levels drop unexpectedly.
● If you live alone, make sure someone you can trust knows you
have diabetes since you may need help if you become poorly.
● Stick to a routine, avoid overworking, and get a decent night’s
sleep.
DATA AND STATISTICS
Approximately 537 billion adults are living with diabetes. The total number of
people living with diabetes is estimated to increase to 643 million by 2030 and
783 million by 2045.
In India, there are an estimated 72.96 million cases of diabetes in the adult
population of India
Why is diabetes prevalence increasing in India?
India is already our country with a rich culture, daily life in India is changing as
western culture is also trying to make space in Indian society. As a result, the
Western diet is becoming popular that comes with more refined carbohydrates
or processed food and trans-fat as a result people are leading sedentary and
less active lives as well.

diabetes all over the world. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes there is
no need to freak out, you need to consult a good doctor and maintain a
lifestyle that would help you in maintaining the sugar level and by controlling it
people are living a good and healthy life.

now or enjoy them less often. You can consult your doctor to suggest a good
