What is diabetes?

  1. Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Blood glucose is your main source of energy and comes from the foods you eat. Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, helps to store glucose from your food in your cells so that it can be used for energy. Sometimes your body does not make enough insulin or your body does not use the insulin properly. The glucose then stays in your blood and doesn't reach your cells.

  1. Over time you can develop health problems because too much glucose remains in your blood. While there is no cure for diabetes, you can take steps to manage your diabetes and stay healthy.

  1. Sometimes people call diabetes "light sugar" or "borderline diabetes." These terms suggest that a person does not really have diabetes or is only slightly diabetic, but remember that any type of diabetes is bad.

What are the different types of diabetes?

  1. The most common types of diabetes are Type 1, Type 2 and gestational diabetes.

  1. If you have Type 1 diabetes, your body does not make insulin. Your immune system then attacks and destroys the cells in your pancreas, which are responsible for producing the insulin. Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, although it can occur at any age. People with Type 1 diabetes need to take insulin every day to stay alive.

  1. If you have Type 2 diabetes, your body does not make or use insulin properly. You can develop Type 2 diabetes at any age, even during childhood. However, this type of diabetes tends to affect older and middle-aged people. Type 2 is the most common type of diabetes you see.

  1. Some women develop gestational diabetes when they are pregnant. Usually this type of diabetes goes away after the baby is born. However, if you have gestational diabetes, you are more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes later in life. Sometimes diabetes during pregnancy is actually Type 2 diabetes.

Who are most likely to develop Type 2 diabetes?

  1. You are most likely to develop Type 2 diabetes if you are 45 years old or older and have a family history of diabetes or obesity. Physical inactivity, a poor diet and certain health conditions such as high blood pressure also affect your chances of developing Type 2 diabetes. You are also more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes if you have had prediabetes or gestational diabetes.

What health problems can people with diabetes develop?

  1. Over time, high blood glucose causes problems such as

How do you recognize diabetes (diabetes)?

  1. In general, you can recognize diabetes by one or more of the following symptoms:

  1. Symptoms of Type 1 diabetes can appear in a matter of weeks. Symptoms of Type 2 diabetes often develop slowly and can be so mild that you may not notice for years that you are bothered. Many people with Type 2 diabetes have no symptoms. Some people don't know they have the disease until they develop diabetes-related health problems such as blurred vision or heart problems.

What causes Type 1 diabetes?

  1. Type 1 diabetes is when your immune system, the body's system that fights infection, attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. Scientists believe that Type 1 diabetes is caused by genes and environmental factors, such as viruses, that can cause the disease. Researchers are working to determine causes of Type 1 diabetes and are looking for possible ways to prevent or slow it down.

What causes Type 2 diabetes?

  1. Type 2 diabetes - the most common form of diabetes - is caused by several factors:

  1. You are more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes if you are not physically active and are overweight or obese. Extra weight sometimes causes insulin resistance and is common in people with Type 2 diabetes. The location of body fat also makes a difference. Extra belly fat has been linked to insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. To see if your weight is a risk for Type 2 diabetes, you can use this BMI graph.

  1. Type 2 diabetes usually starts with insulin resistance, a condition in which the muscle, liver and fat cells do not use insulin properly. As a result, your body needs more insulin to make sure the glucose gets to the cells. Initially, the pancreas then produces more insulin to meet this increased demand. Over time, the pancreas can no longer produce enough insulin and blood glucose levels rise.

  1. Just like with Type 1 diabetes, certain genes can increase the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. The disease is hereditary and is more common in people of these races / ethnic groups:

  1. Genes, like obesity, can also increase the risk of Type 2 diabetes.

Why do you get gestational diabetes?

  1. Scientists believe that gestational diabetes, a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy, is caused by the hormonal changes during pregnancy, along with genetic and lifestyle factors.

  1. Hormones produced by the placenta contribute to insulin resistance and this occurs in all women at the end of pregnancy. Most pregnant women can produce enough insulin on their own to overcome this insulin resistance, but some cannot either. Gestational diabetes occurs when the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin.

  1. As with Type 2 diabetes, extra weight has also been linked to gestational diabetes. Women who are overweight or obese may already have insulin resistance when they become pregnant. Gaining too much weight during pregnancy can also be a factor.

  1. Hormonal changes, extra weight, and a family history can contribute to gestational diabetes.

  1. Having a family history of diabetes makes a woman more likely to develop gestational diabetes, suggesting that genes play a role. Genes can also explain why the condition is more common in African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, and Hispanics / Latinos.

Six foods that lower your blood sugar quickly

  1. Eating whole grains and healthy foods as part of a plant-based diet is one of the easiest ways to manage your blood sugar and take your health to a whole new level. Your blood sugar controls various hormonal responses in the body, all of which contribute to your energy levels, mood, and even hunger levels. Healthy blood sugars are also vital to prevent or manage Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and hypoglycemia. Eating a diet that controls your blood sugar can also help you avoid obesity.

  1. Plant-based foods are packed with fiber, which is the main reason they can regulate blood sugar. Fiber slows the release of sugar into the bloodstream, supporting stable insulin levels. This also prevents the blood sugar from spiking, which often happens after eating refined sugars, animal foods and highly processed foods.

  1. To keep your blood sugar level, you really only need to eat foods that are high in fiber and foods that are lower in fiber such as foods with refined or added sugars, animal products (which dramatically increase insulin) and avoid most processed foods.

  1. To keep things simple and straightforward, focus on eating foods that support your blood sugar rather than focusing on the ones that don't. As you can see, there are a number of tasty plant-based foods and meals that you can eat that will support your blood sugar. These foods keep you energized, satiated and provide your body with vitamins, minerals, fiber, healthy fats and even protein!

  1. All leafy greens like kale, spinach, romaine lettuce, arugula, mustard greens, chard, dandelion leaves and any other green leafy vegetables are absolutely great for your blood sugar. A number of strains are extra beneficial because they are also rich in magnesium, which is a "super nutrient" when it enters your body. Magnesium-rich vegetables include kale, spinach, mustard greens, romaine lettuce and Swiss chard and these vegetables are also very beneficial for controlling blood sugar. You should actually try to get a few servings of these vegetables and you will certainly succeed if you use the vegetables to make green smoothies. Use these nutritious vegetables to make a filling healthy smoothie and to support your blood sugar even better.

  1. Seeds such as chia seeds, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds and sesame seeds are packed with good things! They are wonderful sources of vitamins, minerals such as magnesium, protein and even iron. Take a look at this: Chia seeds provide you with 24% of your daily requirement of magnesium, while animal foods hardly do. Chia seeds, hemp seeds and flax seeds are particularly high in fiber, containing 10-15 grams per two tablespoons. All seeds are also rich sources of protein and as you can see their full nutritional profile supports your blood sugar at every level. Try to add a few tablespoons of these seeds to your meals that you will eat during the day. Try incorporating them into a tasty oatmeal, a healthy smoothie, eat them as a snack or add them to soup or salad.

  1. The cocoa bean is considered the best source of magnesium in the world. It's also a great source of fiber, iron, and even protein. All things that benefit your blood sugar. While it's probably not a good idea to eat cocoa all day, about 60 grams a day can be very good because it can lower your blood sugar quite quickly.

  1. Cocoa is also rich in chromium, a mineral that can also help lower blood sugar further. It can also help you improve your focus, improve your mood and may even aid in weight loss! Put some cocoa powder or shavings in a smoothie, use it in energy bars or as a snack, stir it into the breakfast cereal of your choice, or come up with something yourself!

  1. Almonds are also powerhouses when it comes to magnesium, fiber and protein. Like hemp, chia and flax seeds, they are beneficial for your blood sugar. Almonds contain a particularly higher amount of magnesium. Cashews come in a close second in this regard. All nuts, including almonds, are also rich in chromium which can further support blood sugar levels. Eat a handful of raw almonds every now and then and this will also stop your cravings. Just a small amount of these nuts can support your blood sugar and provide your body with raw food. If you want to make it a bit fancy, make these chocolate coated almond bars which make a great snack before a workout or on the go. Homemade almond butter isn't crazy either, and in fact it tastes great on vegan crackers or even a simple slice of apple or banana.

  1. Oats, rice, wheat germ, amaranth, teff, quinoa, brown and wild rice, and millet are also good sources of magnesium. They can all be made into a porridge for breakfast or used in a variety of recipes. If you want something different from your usual bowl of oatmeal, try these 10 delicious ways to use oats. This healthy quinoa salad is also an excellent dish to lower your blood sugar and keep you feeling full all day long.

  1. Try sprinkling a little cinnamon on one of your favorite blood sugar friendly recipes. Cinnamon is especially rich in chromium and one of the most recommended foods for diabetics because of its ability to lower blood sugars quickly.

  1. Other great foods for your blood sugar include beans, legumes, vegetables such as broccoli and carrots, and seaweed such as kelp and spirulina. As you can see, they are mainly plant foods that are rich in fiber and magnesium, as well as protein and other nutrients that can improve your blood sugar and health.
