How to treat diabetes and can it be controlled
Diabetes patients cannot be cured or controlled unless they follow a proper diet, use medications, or exercise, such as walking for half an hour daily. Diabetes is when the blood sugar level rises, causing nerve damage and damage to vital organs.
What causes diabetes?
Heredity, being overweight, and excessive consumption of sweets or fats are the most prominent factors, in addition to laziness and lack of movement.
Diabetes is divided into two types.
The first type depends on the use of insulin because the body does not produce it.
In the second type, the body produces little insulin, and this type does not need insulin constantly.
The pancreas is responsible for the production of insulin, as this substance contributes to the transfer of sugar to the cells, giving them the energy necessary to carry out their functions, and if the patient uses high amounts of sugar, the body cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood, so the cells ignore insulin and reject it and do not allow sugar to be transferred to them.
How does a person find out that he has diabetes?
Most cases are not detected until late, and the reason is the delay in doing tests every six months, and the symptoms that you should pay attention to are:
- Frequent urination
- The desire to drink water to feel constant thirst
- Feeling hungry in short periods
- Significant weight loss
- Suffering from frequent infections
- Willingness to eat sweets after meals
Many effective drugs are now available and should be used under medical supervision and regularly because of neglecting this disease.
It causes heart attacks, cataracts, kidney failure, and amputation of an organ.
The affected person can avoid all of this through regular medical supervision.
