Do I have diabetes? This is a question which occurs in everyone’s mind at one time or another. To answer this question you have to be fully aware about diabetes. A person having diabetes may not know about it for a longtime to come until some fatal or dangerous situation crops up affecting his entire life. For avoiding such emergencies one needs to understand about diabetes to be able to effectively manage it.
What is diabetes?
When we eat food, it gets converted in to sugar and the cells in the pancreas generate insulin to control the sugar level in the blood. The condition of diabetes occurs when the pancreas stops producing insulin. This leads to high sugar level in the blood. Diabetes Mellitus also known as diabetes is broadly divided in to three categories.
- Type 1 diabetes also known as juvenile diabetes is generally seen in young children.
- Type 2 diabetes occurs from insulin resistance generally seen in people of all age groups and is found to be hereditary.
- Gestation diabetes generally is seen in pregnant women and occurs due to the blockage of insulin in the placenta. Thus this diabetes is different from the other two types of diabetes. This type of diabetics can be cured with adequate exercise and dietary changes.
For the 1st and 2nd type of diabetes treatment becomes mandatory. Understanding the symptoms will help to diagnose and manage or control the disease effectively. One or all of the following symptoms may help us to diagnose diabetes early :
- Hunger and thirst within few minutes of eating
- Dry or itchy skin
- Urination at regular intervals
- Feeling tired and fatigue all the time
- Blurry vision
- Sores which take a long time to heal.
- Unwarranted weight loss
Modern medicine with their side effects may not be conducive for everyone. The natural herbal medicine proves a boon for people who do not want to go for modern medicine.
