Diabetes mellitus is a disease that shows the characteristics of high blood sugar. This is also characterized by hyperglycemia which creates disturbance of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism caused by the defective secretion of insulin. Diabetes is mainly of two types one is insulin requiring type I and second one is adult onset type II. These types of diabetes are distinct in their nature and causes different critical problems. Diabetes was earlier identified as a disease that caused sweet urine and immense loss of body muscle. The insulin secretion is reduced and so the sugar level in the blood rises. Diabetes is a very chronic disease and gradually damages the organs of the body.
A diabetic patient in their early phase will show an elevated level in blood sugar and loss of sugar through urine. As the amount of glucose is high in the urine it will cause frequent urination and this will lead to dehydration as well. Uncontrollable thirst for water will be there continuously. There will be weight loss due to the deficiency of sugar. The metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates are affected due to inappropriate functioning of insulin. Untreated patient will suffer from weakness, exhaustion, weight loss despite an increase in the appetite. Too much variation in sugar level can cause blurred vision as well.
The impact of this disease is really high as the disease does not kill by itself. It kills one gradually with the damage it causes to the rest of the organs in the body. Once this disease is diagnosed then it is kept in control with the aid of medicine or externally injecting insulin in the body. With proper diet plans from the experts the effect of this disease can be kept under a check. Exercises which are moderate in nature like jogging and evening walks can keep the metabolism of the body stable. Henceforth this will help in regulating the sugar in the body.
Diabetes is not a curable disease but can be controlled. Well regulated diabetes should come with the value less than 180 mg/dl 2 hrs after meals and 90-130 mg/dl at fasting. This is a life time disorder and the only cure is a regular blood sugar test. It can be easily done at home as well with Acu check strips for blood test and also the Diastrix strips for sugar level in urine. This is very fatal in nature if not taken care properly. Excessive rise in sugar damages body organs and excessive low sugar will cause Hyperglycemia that can cause instant death. Regardless of its Types it cannot be cured but can be kept in control for remaining healthy.
