Information regarding diabetes and day-to-day living with the disease.
Over 18 million Americans are suffering of type I diabetes or
type II diabetes. Other 4-5 million don't even know they have
the disease. It's a concerning 6% of the U.S. population.
Although it's not a fatal disease, diabetes is the sixth cause
of death in the United States. 90 to 95% of those people have
type II diabetes.
Type I diabetes and type II diabetes is a group of diseases that
share a common characteristic: high levels of blood glucose and
it happens when the body cannot produce enough insulin or when
the insulin produced by the pancreas is not working properly
The type II diabetes is used to be called "non-insulin-dependent
diabetes" or aging diabetes. This is because the risks of having
type II diabetes are bigger and bigger as you are getting older,
but it usually develops after the age of 40. Type II diabetes is
the most common type of diabetes and it differs from type I
diabetes in that the body produces insulin, but not enough;
also, the body can't use that insulin efficiently. Although, the
most affected by the type II diabetes are old people, in the
late 90` the rate has been increased among young people. Doctors
and experts are now trying to determine why is this happening
and have now decided that with an increased number of obesity
cases you have an increased type II diabetes cases.
There are some certain risks factors for the type II diabetes.
These include overweight, unhealthy diet, sedentary lifestyle,
aging and other. Seems that overweight is the biggest risk
factor for the type II diabetes because 80% of those ill are
suffering of obesity. However, you can prevent type II diabetes
by having daily physical exercise, healthy diet. To know if you
have a predilection for the type II diabetes is even better to
have glucose testing.
