| | How Does A Person Acquire DiabetesWritten by Charlene J. Nuble
Diabetes is a condition where body, or to be precise pancreas, loses its ability to create insulin, chemical necessary to regulate blood sugar levels. As we take in food, a substance called glucose enters through bloodstream, and it is insulin's role to make sure that that glucose is carried to different parts of body, in turn fuels us with energy we need. Diabetes is often considered as a silent disease, much like cancer and nearly five out of ten people are unaware that they have diabetes.So how did we get such a disease? A known fact about diabetes is that it can be hereditary, especially if a family member has a history of diabetes. Obesity is also one of most common factors, leading to lack of exercise and high blood pressure levels. US studies have shown that diabetes can also develop when a mother gives birth to a child who weighs more than 9 pounds. There are two types of diabetes: The Type 1 diabetes inflicts mostly children when pancreas completely loses its ability to secrete insulin. Common diabetic symptoms include excessive thirst, frequent urination and continued weight loss despite of excessive hunger. They begin to be insulin dependent and its dire results may also include blindness and amputation of certain limbs in body. Type Two diabetes is far more common than Type One. Its symptoms may include those of Type One, but its leading concern is that nearly half of diabetics may not be able to have such symptoms and cause of hereditary diabetes to children. They are often considered as non-insulin dependents, in which an excessive secretion of insulin passes through bloodstream, causing body to develop a high resistance to chemical. The end result would be high blood glucose content, which can be treated with regular exercise and a high protein diet of starch and carbohydrates.
