007-pellam-saayam Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by high blood sugar levels that result from defects in the body's ability to produce or use insulin. It is important to take and keep control of blood sugar levels in the body because when too much sugar stays in the blood, it will damage the blood vessels and nerves. Much of the food that is eaten daily is turned into sugar in the blood to be use by the body for energy. Insulin is a hormone produced in the body by the pancreas that helps the sugar in the blood get into the cells of the body. When the body doesn't make enough insulin, or if the insulin it does make does not work properly, blood sugar cannot get into the body's cells and instead stays in the blood, raising the blood sugar level. Records have been documenting the diabetes disease for thousands of years. The first known recorded mention of the disease was as early as 1552 BC by a physician in Egypt. Physicians did not begin to gain a better understanding of diabetes until 150 AD when further studies were accomplished by a Greek physician. The use of insulin to treat a human with diabetes occurred in 1920 when it was determined that diabetes was related to high blood sugar levels and that insulin was a lowering agent. Today it is estimated that there are over 150 million people suffering from diabetes and in the United States it accounts for approximately 1/3 of all medical costs. High sugar levels and damaged blood vessels cause a vast amount of complications that come with diabetes. Some of these complications can be kidney disease or kidney failure, stroke, heart attack, loss of vision or blindness, immune system suppression, nerve damage and poor blood circulation. The diagnosis of diabetes is based in an arbitrary cut-off point for the body's blood sugar level that should be 70 - 130 (mg/dL) before meals and less than 180 mg/dL two hours after meals. Blood sugar levels for diabetics are confusing because while there are set standards, most every health care professional visited may provide different numbers to go by. The best thing to do is to take the first set of numbers received and stick to them. The main types of diabetes are Type 1 and Type 2 with the most common form being Type 2. Approximately 90 to 95 percent of people with diabetes are diagnosed as Type 2 diabetics. In people with Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas no longer produces insulin and most often occurs at an early age. Most Type 2 diabetics can control their disease with a healthy diet, exercise, medications and supplements. One of the many medications that can be effective in controlling diabetes is insulin. To allow blood sugar (glucose) to get into the body's cells, insulin must be present. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, a large gland located behind the stomach. Insulin is secreted by groups of cells within the pancreas called islet cells. It is necessary for the body to change glucose into energy. When glucose stays in the bloodstream it cannot be used as energy and causes many problems. Insulin causes cells in the liver, muscle and tissues to receive glucose from the blood where it is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscle. This stored insulin stops the use of fat as a source of energy. Insulin has been shown to enhance learning and memory, and it benefits verbal memory. The pancreas normally produces the correct amount of insulin automatically and moves glucose from the bloodstream into the body's cells where it has extensive effects on metabolism and other body functions. Insulin injections are required when the pancreas produces insulin that is not effective, produces too little insulin or does not produce insulin. Most blood sugar problems, such as headaches, fatigue, mood swings and depression, obesity, alcoholism and diabetes can be directly related to the pancreas. Most cells in the body have insulin receptors which bind the insulin that is in the blood circulation. Cells have insulin attached to their surface that activates other receptors designed to absorb glucose from the bloodstream into the inside of the cell. Most medical professionals will start their Type 2 patents on pills before prescribing insulin. The starting of insulin depends on several factors that include the length of time being a diabetic, blood sugar level, current medications and the patents overall health. It has been found that pills help the body make better use of insulin. The dietary supplement Blood Sugar Support Capsules can also be a help for diabetics. These capsules contain a combination of vitamins, minerals and herbs that are designed to help keep blood sugar levels at a safe level. The ingredients in each capsule have been carefully chosen for its unique properties and positive and proven effects. Along with weight watching, a low fat/ high fiber diet and exercising, these natural blood sugar capsules can help in controlling blood sugar.
