Diabetes: Causes, Symptoms, Types, and Treatment

Diabetes is a long-term metabolic condition in which elevated glucose levels, i.e. high blood sugar result from the body’s inability to produce enough of the hormone insulin or use it effectively. This brings about a disruption in the flow of glucose and complications may arise when not controlled using diabetes.

Diabetes Causes: Key Factors and Risk Factors

Being aware of what causes diabetes in the first place, may help to spot it at early stages and prevent the circumstances eventually reducing risks. Here are in which additional elements and risk factors for diabetes development can be seen:

Type 1 diabetes

  • Hereditarily: if someone in your ancestors has diabetes, then there can be a risk factor for having this disease.
  • Immune Response: In Type 1 diabetes, the immune system mistakenly attacks and kills insulin-producing cells

Type 2 diabetes

In the case of Type 2 diabetes, the cells of the body do not respond to message insulin then blood glucose increases.

  • Being overweight: Carrying too many pounds, especially around the abdomen (central obesity), greatly increases your risk of Type 2 diabetes.
  • Sedentary Life: Sedentarism is a passive life viz., physical inactivity facilitates the onset of cortisolemia, favoring the occurrence of insulin resistance.
  • Age: Elevated risk at mature age group, especially above 45 decades.
  • Race/Ethnicity: Asian Americans, African-Americans, and Latinos have it at greater levels than Whites.
  • Family history: for example, if a member of your immediate family has diabetes you are at high risk for developing the disease
  • Gestational Diabetes: When Pregnant women get diagnosed with diabetes type it affects the baby but can increase their future risk of Type 2 in life.

Diabetes Symptoms

  • Increased Thirst (Polydipsia): High blood glucose causes excess sugar to be sucked out in the urine, leading to dehydration and constant hunger and thirst for people with diabetes.
  • Frequent Urination (Polyuria): When levels are high the body does its best to rid itself of glucose by peeing, resulting in frequent visits to the bathroom.
  • Excessive Hunger (Polyphagia): As the cells in the body are not supplied enough glucose, diabetic patients may feel hungry more often and then end up eating.
  • Unexplained Weight Loss: Although eating enough food, people with diabetes can lose weight because lack of insulin causes the body to break down muscle and fat for energy instead.
  • Fatigue: This can result in longer-term fatigue and chronic weakness because the body fails to effectively turn glucose into energy.
  • Blurred Vision: When blood sugar levels are high, fluid is pulled from the lens of your eye to help reduce swelling and flush out sugars. Unfortunately, this change in sharpness can lead to blurred vision along with focusing issues as well.

Management of Diabetes:

It is usually managed by lifestyle changes (diet and exercise) and also by losing weight.

  • Yoga and Walking: Doing yoga and walking, as well, can also play a role in increasing insulin sensitivity which is needed to remain fit.

  • Stress Management: Sleeping techniques such as meditation, deep breaths, etc. help to reduce stress and hence reduce blood sugar levels due to the release of a good amount of glucose during intense physical activity and its output from the nervous system.

  • Panchakarma: One of the Ancient Indian Ayurvedic detox procedures helps the body discard toxins and promotes metabolic activities.

  • Abhyanga (Oil Massage): A daily or weekly oil massage is said to increase circulation, reduce stress, and boost overall health.
