Diabetes - Buckwheat to the rescue

Borderline Diabetes:

As I was surfing the web researching data relevant to my web site where I sell buckwheat pillows, I stumbled upon some data that grabbed my attention. Two things I am greatly interested in. One is buckwheat, and the other is diabetes. The first interest would be obvious, because of my inter net business, but the second is a more recent interest, or should I say, concern?

I have just been diagnosed as being borderline diabetic, so when I came across this information, I was all ears, or should I say all eyes? What are the chances of seeing one article which combines both subjects which are the most foremost to me? "University of Manitoba researchers find links between buckwheat consumption and absence of diabetes in remote geographical area," or something to that effect.

Borderline Diabetes:Diabetes - Buckwheat to the rescue

Researchers had come to be aware of this area that had virtually no diabetics. They sent researchers to the area to see if they could cut off the factors that might be the cause of this. They had already ascertained that when citizen moved away from this area, they soon became field to diabetes in about the same numbers as the prior local residents, so they knew it had to be some factor peculiar to that particular area.

After spending some time there they found one fairly confident difference. The only flour that was consumed in the area was milled from buckwheat. Every conceivable food that would comprise flour, was made from it. They naturally did not use any other form of flour. Whether they were development bread, noodles, pancakes, pastries, biscuits, or gravy, it was made with buckwheat flour.

The university then conducted a test using diabetic mice. Apparently, mice react to things pertaining to diabetes, sugar, and insulin, in much the same way that humans do. Giving buckwheat to half of the diabetic mice, and not to the other half, resulted in the half given the buckwheat recovering very swiftly from their diabetes. They then ran a small experiment with human diabetics, which resulted in a dramatic lowering of blood sugar levels in those given fairly small amounts of buckwheat every other day.

Being greatly encouraged by these results, they are proceeding with setting up full scale scientifically controlled studies on humans, indicating that based on the experiments with both the mice and the diabetic people, they are quite expectant of achieving maybe dramatic results from these studies.

Having just been diagnosed as being borderline diabetic, I opinion I would start eating some buckwheat for breakfast, and see what results I might get.. I went to the local health food store (couldn't find anything except buckwheat pancake mix at the local grocery store) and bought some buckwheat groats (raw buckwheat).

I concocted a merge of recipes. For one I cooked about a third of a cup of groats in a bowl of apple cider. I knew that development oatmeal in apple cider was de facto good. Then I threw in a handful of raisins. I boiled that about ten minutes, tossed in some icy berries, which helped cool it down so I could eat it. Sometimes I pour a little low fat milk on it. Pretty good. Next I made some with a third of a teaspoon of beef bullion powder, added some dried chives, some parsley, a little garlic powder, a little lemon pepper, two teaspoons of ground flax seed, a third cup of the groats, a shake or two of sea salt,and boiled that ten minutes in a bowl of water. As soon as this was cooked I dropped in an egg, and swiftly stirred it up in the "soup". The heat of the soup cooks the egg, and I de facto like that recipe.

My results were very encouraging, but of course, anecdotal. I had had a blood test a merge of months before I started eating my buckwheat breakfast. I had weighed 261 lbs., and my hemoglobin A1c (measures your midpoint blood sugar over the last 2 - 3 months) was6.9. After about 3 weeks of eating my buckwheat concoctions, my A1c was 6.1, and my weight was 243. I had not been aware that eating buckwheat also can cause weight loss because it is very high in fiber, and causes you to feel fuller, so you eat less.

Now I'm not saying that other citizen will get results like I have, and I'm not advocating this as what anything should do, but I am saying that this explore being conducted by the University of Manitoba bears watching. As for me, though, I'm going to keep on eating buckwheat for breakfast. They have found out, in the process of their research, that buckwheat has a whole lot of other very nutritious advantages, One article I read declared that buckwheat was likely destined to come to be the next super food. I'm sure it's good for me than scrapple with syrup on it, or a bowl of frosted flakes and a doughnut.

Diabetes - Buckwheat to the recovery

Pre Diabetes with Fitness de Cuisine

Pre Diabetes with Fitness de Cuisine - Borderline Diabetes

Pre Diabetes, sometimes referred to as borderline diabetes, is estimated to afflict over 79 million Americans adults, according to studies published in 2011 by the National Diabetes Information Clearinghouse (NDIC). Those figures include 50 percent of adults aged 65 years and older. As the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, diabetes is responsible for many new cases of heart disease and stroke reported each year. Other complications associated with diabetes includes kidney failure, lower-limb amputations, and blindness. Recent research indicates that lifestyle changes through better diet and more exercise can lessen the progression of Pre Diabetes into Type 2 Diabetes.

Peripheral Poly-Neuropathy - My analysis

Borderline Diabetes:

Living with neuropathy is not the easiest thing in the world. Especially if you had any kind of active life before the neuropathy took succeed and changed everything. In my single case I wasn't all that active in the first place. I spent most of my time sitting in front of the computer staring at a screen using the keyboard. So when my feet started tingling or my legs grew numb, I just plan I was sitting in my chair wrong and I cut off the blood flow and my legs or feet were going to sleep. It should have been a clue that after a while, they unquestionably didn't wake up.

Mine started out as a gradual feeling in my feet. They felt like they had just starting to wake up after falling asleep, as an example, from sitting in a chair too long. You know, that odd feeling that you get when they just start waking up and the tingling makes everything you feel, feel 10 times worse. When something touched my foot or I managed to step on something on the floor, the feeling was magnified by the tingling, production it feel much more intense.

Borderline Diabetes:Peripheral Poly-Neuropathy - My analysis

As time passed, the tingling gave way to a tiny numbness. unquestionably the tingling moved up my legs didn't causing the lower parts my shins to tingle. This wasn't near as bad so I didn't think much about it. Then the pain in my feet started. Whenever I walked my feet no longer felt numb, but like I was walking on a gravel road barefoot. Even when I had shoes on. It felt as though I could feel every piece of gravel underneath my foot. Even though I was wearing a shoe and a comfortable stock. The feeling grew more and more intense. Like each rock that I was stepping on was sticking in my foot almost leaving a bruise behind. Just keep in mind that I felt these "rocks" whether I was wearing shoes are not.

This is when I decided that it was time to go see a doctor and figure out exactly what was going on with me. I was having a hard time walking, because of the pain in my feet and I noticed that I was stumbling a lot more than I used to, in general falling sideways and bumping into chairs, tables, and you name it. I had bruises and scratches all over my arms and my legs I couldn't tell you where they came from. unquestionably this part wasn't all that bad is kind of like being high without having taken the drugs!! But then, there were the scratches.

The first someone I saw was my house doctor. He did a few quick tests on me and discovered that I had borderline type 2 diabetes, which he speedily put me on some medication for and that seemed to clear that up. The doctor also decided that the neuropathy was caused by the diabetes, reasoning that it was probably diabetic neuropathy. I did a tiny bit of research on the net (every doctors being the -- the informed patient) and I found that diabetic neuropathy only occurred in patients who had a long term, undiagnosed severe diabetic condition, one that was very much out of control. Now since I had only been diagnosed diabetes in January before, and this was about March, I personally thought about that diabetic neuropathy was not cause. I mean after all we patience to know more than the doctors do right?

During my next doctor's visit I approached him about this and he said yes this was correct, that it commonly came from a long-term undiagnosed diabetic condition that was uncontrolled and that this may not have been what it happen in my case. But he did state that sometimes habitancy got the neuropathy from the delete diabetic condition without being long-term or uncontrolled. But the chances of that were very slight. So on my request; he referred me to a neurologist. He also noticed that my hormone levels for tiny bit out of whack so he referred me to an endocrinologist, as well to get that checked out.

To make a long story short (yeah right), the endocrinologist found that I had many goiters in my thyroid and I ended up going through surgery to take them out. unquestionably they took the whole thyroid out, which made me unquestionably happy. Not! So now I'm stuck taking thyroid medication for the rest of my life. The one part about this that makes me happy was that they found a micro-carcinoma in one of the goiters. It was fully encapsulated and well-defined so they weren't involved about it having spread in any place else. The borders were well-defined, it only complicated a cell or two, and they were able to get it all when they took it out. As a succeed they were sure that that they'd gotten the whole thing and the no further rehabilitation would be necessary.

I then started seeing the neurologist who looked into my case and started running me through a battery of tests trying to figure out what I had. After numerous blood tests, production the jump off the table with needles and voltages, x-rays, brain scans, and Mri, and a few other tests I can't remember he eliminated lime disease, many sclerosis, diabetic neuropathy, and thought about that the blood flow in my feet and legs was almost perfect. Basically he could find no surmise for the neuropathy or why it would be progressing as it was. T'was then that we tried a tiny more invasive test in the hopes of seeing out what was going on.

They set me up for a minor surgery and we did a nerve biopsy on my left foot. This complicated taking a small piece of nerve out of the heel of the left foot. The doctors told me that this single nerve was for feeling a very small measure of the heel of that foot and commonly would not be used by whatever (the word "normally" always scares me). When the surgery took place, they were supposed to make a ¼" incision in the heel of my left foot. They ended up production a 3 inch incision because they couldn't find the nerve! Turns out it was unquestionably too small for them to see easily. When they did remove it and finally sat down for the testing, the normal stuff they were supposed to have found was without fail not there! Instead, they found that the nerve had lost all of its myelin (the protein sheath that protects the nerve), and that the nerve itself had been destroyed! So, the nerve was dead, or at very most dying.

This confirmed the prognosis of the "demyelinating peripheral poly neuropathy". Demyelinating means that my body is stripping the protein sheath also from my nerves, which exposes the nerves to the internal body, where the nerves short out causing the dullness and tingling feelings. Once the sheath has been stripped off completely, it is my reliance that my body begins to attack the nerve itself destroying it resulting in the complete loss of feeling and finally motor function. I've always knew I had an overactive immune system, I just never plan it would work against me.

The "peripheral" measure of the name refers to the fact that it's currently affecting only my extremities, the peripherals being my hands my feet, so between you and me lets hope it stays there and doesn't spread inward.

The "Poly" part of the conditioned me refers to the fact that both my motor and sensory nerves are being affected by the condition. This means that finally I will lose control of my muscles themselves and I will end up in a wheelchair or worse. The worst-case scenario here would unquestionably being losing control of my chest and/or rib area, causing me to have to go on life preserve for the rest of whatever. But I try not to think about that as the risk of this is very low.

I've noticed over a period of time that increased stress in the job and/or my personal life can cause the disease to whether exacerbate the symptoms or to unquestionably cause it to advance at a quicker rate than it would otherwise. This is what has been happening to me over the last three months or so. It is been a very stressful time at work, and the stress is showing itself in a rapid advancement of my symptoms. For example my hands, which didn't used to show any symptoms of the disease have gone from a tingling dullness on the back of the fingers to a downright pain in the tip of the fingers, which intensifies when any type of surface that has a texture is touched. The best way I can report it is this-everyone in their life has burned the tip of their fingers on say a hot pan or on a soldering iron in my case, and it left a blister behind. This is how the ends my fingers feel. Like there are tiny blisters at the end of each one and when I apply any pressure, it causes the same type of pain, almost a burning sensation. without fail not a pleasant feeling, especially for someone who types for a living, being a computer programmer and all.

The way I'm unquestionably typing this right now is by using Dragon plainly Speaking. I've got my headphones on with my microphone, and I'm talking quietly to my computer and it is typing everything that I am telling it to. It is a great innovation, however I'm still training it and so I have to go back and corrected quite often. It is getting best as I can see it is recognizing more and more of my words as I'm typing... Or I should say as I'm talking. So finally I won't have to do much correction in it at all.

My neurologist has classified me as having a "moderate/severe"case of neuropathy. He told me at one point after I was diagnosed with the condition, that I could (might, maybe, possibly) find out what was exactly causing it if I went out to Charlottesville and visited the University out there and called on a master - one that specialized in neuropathies and have him run some specialized tests. question is the assurance firm wouldn't cover any of these tests, and the only thing it would tell me is where it came from, not how to fix it. So, seeing as how he couldn't tell me how to fix it and the fact that I have already spent ,000 in the last year visiting doctors trying to figure out what was going on, I decided that it wouldn't be worth it. So at that point, I just suitable the condition for what it is, and started taking as many drugs as I could to alleviate the symptoms so that life can go on.

At the moment I take Cymbalta and Wellbutrin for the pain and depression that comes along with it. I recently started Carbitral which is a generic form of Tegretol to try to help with some of the nerve pain as well. Carbitral seems to be doing a very good job. I don't have the stabbing pains running down my legs, arms and my hands that I used to have, although I do still have that tiny blistery feeling at the end of the fingers. I take Mirapex for restless leg syndrome, MetNx (actually a prescribe vitamin complex) for nerve pain, Primadone for principal tremors, and last but not least, I still take Glucophage for my diabetes. I find it spellbinding that I take more pills in two mornings than most habitancy I work with are old!!!

I also take all Altace form mild case of high blood pressure. I take Lipitor for high cholesterol, Tricor for high triglycerides. I in general have to take these because I can't exercise properly in order to work my levels down properly. I would love to do free weights but without having permissible feeling in my fingers I end up under the weights. I can't do walking because the more I walked the more my feet hurt and after a while I end up stumbling around like a drunk. I do also use a cane which helps me in my equilibrium area so I don't stumble and do things as much which my arms and legs thank me greatly for. It is also allowed made to collect a great variety of canes! Some of them even have swords and daggers in them! I don't use those much but I do know they're there! Oh, by the way -- just to add insult to injury I also see a therapist once a week to help me with the depression and in handling the chronic pain

Anyway, the stress at work has let up a tiny bit. So let's hope that the progression of the illness has as well. I'll keep taking the drugs as long as they make me feel best (At least I'm not on the painkillers I was last year). I am walking with a cane right now, that unquestionably doesn't bother at least I don't need two of them to keep me up right!!

And, as you've probably seen by now, being able to enter words without typing and hurting my fingers is both a boon and a bane. I have a lot to say that I can get out, but at the same time... Verrryyy Looonnggg Aaaaarrrrtiiiiclllllesss!

Have a great life!

Madison's Unnecesarean

Madison's Unnecesarean - Borderline Diabetes

I got pregnant with my daughter when I was 18. I knew a little bit about pregnancy from being the oldest of eight kids, but I really didn't know as much as I should have. To me, having a baby was something people did everyday. It wasn't something to worry about, let alone be anxious about. I had a relatively easy pregnancy with my daughter aside from lots of morning sickness. I had Group B Strep, and had some borderline diabetic issues and dehydration a couple times, but for the most part, life was simple. I went to 41 weeks, and it was at that point I asked my doctor about induction. I was "informed" about the risks associated with it, but I really don't feel that I was made to understand the realness of those risks. I really regret the decision to induce. Absolutely nothing happened, which isn't surprising considering I was 0cm dilated and 0% effaced. I didn't know that a bishop score should be done before an induction... Needless to say, a cesarean was inevitable. I was terrified and the experience traumatized me. I suffered from severe post partum depression and had issues caring for and bonding with my baby. I genuinely believe, had I been better informed, and better educated, and not rushed because I was "overdue" that I would not have had a cesarean.

Hyperinsulinemia - Is It Diabetes or Not?

Borderline Diabetes:

Hyperinsulinemia is not other word for type 2 diabetes or even for borderline diabetes. It as a matter of fact means too much insulin in the blood. If you have high blood sugar, that is called hyperglycemia, and too tiny sugar is hypoglycemia.

Because your pancreas, or more as a matter of fact the beta cells inside it, make the two hormones that keep glucose at a safe and steady level in your blood, they are part of your endocrine system. Endocrine glands release the hormones that sway every organ and cell, and they all the time come in pairs so they can balance, or turn on and off processes, such as growth, stress responses, mood and digestion.

An endocrinologist is a doctor who specializes in the comprehension of endocrine systems. That's why diabetes doctors are endocrinologists. They study the disease and its symptoms, and they have learned how to treat those symptoms. They can identify hyperinsulinemia, and though they are not sure of its cause, they know what it does.

Borderline Diabetes:Hyperinsulinemia - Is It Diabetes or Not?

Elevated insulin in the blood causes an increased inflammatory consequent in every organ of the body. If that doesn't sound too bad, think about this. Inflammatory bowel disease, inflammatory arthritis and continuing fatigue syndrome are only a few of the possible problems related to inflammatory reaction.

In hyperinsulinemia your pancreas is putting out larger amounts of insulin than your cells can use. Sometimes this is because of insulin resistance in the cells. Doctors know this is related to the metabolic syndrome but they have no proof that the syndrome as a matter of fact causes hyperinsulinemia. The consequent is often continuing low blood sugar.

On the opposite side is high blood sugar, what we know as diabetes or prediabetes. Elevated sugar in your blood damages blood vessels and spreads candidal infections straight through your bloodstream. The symptoms are not as inescapable as those for hypoglycemia, which is why it is possible to have very high blood sugar for years and not know it.

You can have hyperinsulinemia for a long time, too, without being aware of it. Some of the symptoms of hyperinsulinemia are sugar cravings, intense hunger, weight gain, weakness, moods like grouchiness and anxiety, and poor concentration. These symptoms are very much like hypoglycemia.

Why Hyperinsulinemia Is Not Diabetes

Diabetes and borderline diabetes can lead to hyperinsulinemia, but there are other things that might cause it. One is a tumor called an insulinoma that makes the beta cells produce insulin when there is no need for it. There is also a disease called nesidioblastosis in which there are far too many beta cells in the pancreas pumping out insulin.

That means it's prominent to know the cause of high insulin in the blood so it can be treated properly. If the imbalance in your endocrine system is caused by insulin resistance, you are prediabetic unless your blood sugar count is high enough to consider you diabetic, and you can begin suitable medicine of it with changes in diet and level of exercise.

Any endocrine imbalance is hard to treat medically. If you add insulin to bring down your blood sugar, you growth the chances of creating hypoglycemia, too tiny sugar in your blood.

That's why you use a blood glucose monitor every few hours while you're on insulin, and it explains why there's such a rush to make a continuous glucose monitor that is reliable. There is a great profit to be made by the business that perfects it.

And oral medications that try to mimic the actions of endocrine systems like the pancreas and heart all the time have undesirable side effects. You and your doctor have to weigh the risks and benefits carefully each time you are offered a new medication.

There Is A good Way To Treat Hyperinsulinemia in Type 2 Diabetes

If your endocrine system is not regulating glucose properly because of insulin resistance there is as a matter of fact something you can do about it. You can sell out insulin resistance by treating the metabolic syndrome. This has been proven to work.

Remember, the metabolic syndrome is a compound of conditions:

  • High bad cholesterol with high triglycerides
  • High blood pressure
  • Being sedentary (lack of exercise)
  • Obesity with fat deposits nearby the organs along with a low muscle mass
  • Abnormally high blood sugar

This syndrome is the consequence of lack of exercise, prominent to low muscles and high fat. It is also caused by a diet full of over-processed and fast food with too much sugar and artificial fats. If that sounds too simple, the proof is in what happens when those two things are changed.

People who exercise, raise their muscle mass, and start eating things that are good for them as a matter of fact find lower blood pressure, good cholesterol levels, and reversed hyperinsulinemia. It happens all the time.

The other choice is to let doctors treat the symptoms with oral medications and insulin to help operate the estimate of insulin in your blood. It means a lifetime commitment to this medicine because it does not offer a cure.

While researchers look for ways to artificially regulate insulin and blood sugar levels in your blood, you can be working on your own cure by helping your pancreas return to its general functions. A 50% success rate is what doctors have measured with exercise and diet changes.

With drastic lowering of weight and high levels of exercise the rate of success is much higher. On the Tv show The Biggest Loser they have seen a 100% rate of success in getting their diabetic contestants off of medications. That is beyond what any medication regimen offers you. It's more than just an option.

It's a way out of type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, and any other disorder that is caused by years of stress we have put on our pancreas and cardiovascular system. We could recover a salutary pancreas if we do what has been proven to work.

We type 2 diabetics can at the very least sell out our complications. It's worth doing, and it will only cost us one thing. We will have to change.

What Do The Numbers precisely Mean? Let's Break Free From Illness To condition And Fitness

Borderline Diabetes:

We hear about these condition numbers all the time. And, they keep changing consistently. One thing I have observed is that the healthier we want to be the lower we want the numbers. And, we can lower them by planning our own condition and fitness regimen.

Let's break free from our old lifestyle and take our families with us on a new ride to condition and fitness. Let's be examples for our kids, and teach them the importance of a healthy diet and lifestyle.

What's good for today? Here is a summary, and remember, always do explore because nothing stays the same.

Borderline Diabetes:What Do The Numbers precisely Mean? Let's Break Free From Illness To condition And Fitness

Blood Pressure

Normal - lower than 120/80

Pre-Hypertension... That point just before your pressure is too high: 120/80 - 139/89

Too high, or hypertension: 140/90 and higher

Cholesterol - And remember, cholesterol does not get high because of our lifestyle; my doctor once told me that only 35% can be controlled by us, the rest is hereditary.

Where you want it: less than 200 mg/dl

Borderline: 200 to 239

Too High: 240 and up

Hdl Cholesterol - the good stuff

Really Good: higher than 60 mg/ld and up

Moderate Risk: 40 - 59

Major Risk: Below 40

Ldl Cholesterol - the bad stuff

Optimal Less than 100 mg/dl

Borderline: 130 - 158

High: 160 and more

Blood Glucose - fasting levels

Healthy is less than 100 mg/dl

Pre- Diabetic 100 -125

Diabetes: 126 or higher

How can you control your numbers? First, you need to go to your doctor to find out what your numbers are. Nest, you need to make a chart for each of the above numbers.

And next, you need to make a plan, a goal of where you want your numbers to be, and how fast you want to reach your goal. And then, you need to follow your plan.

Sound easy? Well, it precisely can be, if you study and explore your options, both natural and healing help is available. You can consolidate both in order to reach your goal.

Some of the issues to study are:

-Natural remedies to lower the numbers.

-Diets to help lower the numbers.

-Exercise and fitness plans to help lower the numbers.

-Medicines available. Read about these before you go to your doctor so you can discuss them with him/her.

Make that plan and then follow that plan. It works.

5 Tips to control Blood Sugar Without medicine

Borderline Diabetes:

To control blood sugar means to develop control of your life- something that many diabetics have only done by usually taking their medicine. But did you know that there are means and ways that you would be able to control your spiraling blood sugar without relying solely on your diabetes medication, such as your insulin. Let's face it- for many decades now, investigate on diabetes has shown that there are inevitable incidences of diabetes that are harder and harder to regulate with the usual spectrum of treatments.

Because of this there is a need to lower blood sugar naturally- and there are fullness of methods that you can try to make this happen for you. Your diabetes sugar level is fully dependent on the health of your body (how salutary you are) and your diet (what you have been eating all these years). Often the diabetic that has not been informed fully would not be able to gauge the normal status of his health, and he or she would not know how to alter his current diet. The following may be done to get normal blood glucose levels.

1. Exercise more- it is now more critical to growth your bodily activity, because if you don't even your muscle tissues will begin to take damage if you don't control your blood sugar. If you haven't been exercising for most of your life then this would be a good time to begin.

Borderline Diabetes:5 Tips to control Blood Sugar Without medicine

2. Eat less saturated fats- it is true that you need a nutritive diet to get along- but the nutritive aspect fails if you are spirited way too many calories of saturated fat. The effort fails because you might suffer from complications of diabetes mellitus- the deadly ones always sway the heart.

3. Eat organic- the less junk food and processed foods you consume, the less likely you would be raising your blood sugar levels. Because of this basic fact, start enjoying organic food more- start cooking at home with your own recipes and watch your blood sugar go down.

4. No to soft drinks- soft drinks are one of the important causes of diabetes since its inception, and it still is today. If you have been addicted to the stuff from birth, then now would be a good time to wean yourself off the harmful substance because soft drinks are packed with sugar with every gulp.

5. Yes to natural fruit juices- if you still want your small doses of sugar and yet you have decided not to drink soft drinks, why not try natural fruit juices instead? Try the King himself- the coconut. Coconut juice is sweet, beyond doubt chilled and quite refreshing. Try different recipes for cocktails and watch a room go wild with coconut juice. Or you can naturally sip it cold while reading your beloved book or listening to your beloved composers. This is also safe for insulin dependent diabetics.

These are only some of the ways that you may be able to control blood sugar.

Borderline Diabetes - What is a general Blood Sugar Level?

Borderline Diabetes:

For those with borderline diabetes what is now carefully a general blood sugar level has changed. This is highly important as those with blood sugar problems often do not perceive that they are close to getting this disease. Two blood tests are commonly used to determine if you have diabetes or borderline diabetes. One is the fasting plasma glucose test (Fpg). The other is oral glucose tolerance test (Ogtt). These tests part how swiftly your body can "clear" glucose from your blood. People who are close to diabetes have blood glucose levels of 100-125 mg/dl after an overnight or eight-hour fast is diagnosed as borderline.

People with these results are carefully to have impaired fasting glucose (Ifg). Now what should be of serious concern to the diabetic is that this is the new lower level. The level was lowered because many People who were once told they were fine were in actuality not fine. Doctors had given People a false sense of security. The query of what was a general blood sugar had to be changed.

There is a great danger in being labeled a borderline diabetic. The bodies cells are aging faster than a person with general blood sugar. The pancreas is gently failing and this is dangerous. As the pancreas fails the body can have a little whole of insulin supplied. This often allows excess sugar to roam in the blood stream; this is risky and can lead to the loss of fingers. The lowering of the levels of who was diabetic has increased by millions those who are labeled borderline

Borderline Diabetes:Borderline Diabetes - What is a general Blood Sugar Level?

If you have been told you have a higher than general sugar level it is a time to get very serious. It is an crisis signal that should not be ignored. Once the pancreas has given out it is very difficult to reverse the damage. The damaging high sugar level in the blood is causing the circulation to be affected. For men they risk impotence and may lose the quality to maintain an erection. The blood supply to the sex organ can be damaged. Often diabetic medications can cause serious effects that leave the inpatient in a difficult position in the middle of maintaining a general blood sugar level or risking the medicines side effects.

LIVEfit Medicine Commercial (ft. John Goddard) - Borderline Diabetes

I am writing today to share the story of winning my fight against obesity. My name is John Goddard, I'm a Wellness Counselor as well as a news & radio writer/anchor from Kingsport, Tennessee. Just over one year ago, at the age of 32, I weighed in at 410 pounds, a 62" waist & a 4XL shirt. I knew I was in trouble. Being so heavy was not only physically & mentally challenging, it was affecting my health as well. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea, hypertension & I was a borderline diabetic. My knees were constantly hurting and my circulation was poor. I would get out of breath walking 15 feet from my car to the front door of my home. From an emotional standpoint, I hated looking in the mirror and being seen out in public. I would constantly catch people staring & making fun of me. I found myself hiding from people in public and avoiding having my picture taken. I couldn't fit into booths at restaurants. I became a recluse, burying myself in work to avoid facing how miserable I was. I reached a boiling point in my life and my health where I knew something had to change. In January of 2010, I joined Anytime Fitness of Kingsport. At that time I met franchise owner Willie Hamilton. Willie was great and after talking with him, I knew that he was the man that could help me. I just never realized how far it would go.. Right away, I began working out daily. I lost a little weight on my own, but I wasn't seeing the results I'd hoped for. In March, I began training with Willie Hamilton ...

Pre-Diabetes, Borderline Diabetes and Avoiding Type 2 Diabetes - Borderline Diabetes

facebook.com Pre-diabetes, taking steps to avoid type 2 diabetes. Pre-diabetes is a condition without obvious symptoms and left unchecked will lead to type 2 diabetes. That's very scary. Usually after you eat the sugar or glucose levels in your blood rise and the body produces insulin a hormone to convert the glucose into energy for everyday living. If insulin is not being generated or used by the body, glucose levels will remain elevated and that can hurt the body. People that have higher than normal glucose levels, but are not diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, have pre-diabetes. A study published in the March 14, 2002, issue of the New England Journal of Medicine found 25 percent of very obese children and 21 percent of very obese adolescents had prediabetes. Most of the time pre-diabetes shows no symptoms at all. Some people may experience extreme thirst, frequent urination, fatique and/or blurred vision. Many people with pre-diabetes will develop type 2 diabetes within 10 years. So, if you have been diagnosed you can do a lot to prevent it from developing into type2 diabetes. 1. Clean up your eating. Add healthy fats, fiber, whole grains, fruits, veggies, superfoods to your diet. Reduce or totally eliminate excess calories, sugar, saturated fats and trans fats. Start small, find your weakest area and work there first. Are you a TV snacker? Replace a high sugar, high fat treat with a healthier option. 2. Maintaining a healthy weight can lower your chances of developing ...

Reducing Blood Pressure is essential

Borderline Diabetes:

High blood pressure or hypertension as it is also known is typically called the 'silent killer' because so many citizen don't know that they have it. It slowly creeps up on you and can damage your heart, kidneys, and brain, although you're feeling no symptoms. Therefore reducing blood pressure is requisite to your wellbeing.  

The pressure is the force exerted by circulating blood against the walls of the arteries. It is therefore a measure of how hard the blood pushes against the walls of your arteries as it moves through your body. If your pressure is normal, you should try your best to keep it that way. If your pressure is too high, you want rehabilitation to stop damage to your body's organs. 

The Blood pressure ranges are as follows:

Borderline Diabetes:Reducing Blood Pressure is essential

  1. Hypotension (Low Pressure)  
  2. Normal  90 - 119/ 60 - 79
  3. Pre-Hypertension (Mild) 120 - 139/80 - 89
  4. Stage 1 Hypertension (Moderate) 140 - 159/90 - 99
  5. Stage 2 Hypertension (Severe) higher than 160/100 

Elevated pressure is serious as it makes the heart work too hard and contributes to atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).

Reasons for higher pressure are weight gain and reduced physical activity. The nicotine in cigarettes and other tobacco products also causes your veins to confine and your heart to beat quicker, which raises your pressure. In some people, alcohol causes pressure to rise.

Treatment for reducing blood pressure is based on how high your pressure is, whether you have other health issues like diabetes, and whether any organs have been damaged. rehabilitation starts with changes you can make to your way of life to help lower your pressure and cut back your opening of coronary disease.

More than 80% of citizen can be thriving with reducing pressure very effectively with non-drug therapies. Countless studies have shown that natural alternatives are far excellent in all respects to accepted drug rehabilitation in cases of borderline-to-moderate hypertension.

Diabetes: connection With Diet and practice

Borderline Diabetes:

Introduction

Is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia (high levels of circulating glucose) due to deranged actions and / or production of the glucose level regulating hormone, insulin. Most of the clinical features and sequelae of diabetes are due to this persistently elevated level of glucose.

A strong association between modern life style and diabetes is cited by most scientific studies.

Borderline Diabetes:Diabetes: connection With Diet and practice

Epidemiology

The association of type Ii diabetes and corporeal inactivity was first noted in populations who migrated from rural areas to cities and were suddenly exposed a more modern life style. A case in study is that of the Japanese living in Hawaii who have an increased risk than those living in Hiroshima. Thus, lifestyle seems to contribute more than genetics.

A study from the University of Pennsylvania complete that there is a 6% lower risk of diabetes if the weekly ingestion of calories is reduced by 500 Kcal. Other study suggests that there is a direct dose-response association between corporeal action and discount of risk for diabetes.

Types of Diabetes

Type I Diabetes Mellitus

This is characterized by absolute inability of the body to produce insulin. Pancreatic Beta cell destruction due to an autoimmune mechanism is universally approved cause of type I diabetes mellitus.

Type Ii Diabetes Mellitus

This is characterized by relative insufficiency of insulin and/ or resistance to the actions of insulin. This is the more tasteless type and affects individuals in the middle age and is dependent to a large extent on factors like race, diet and obesity.

Diagnosis of Diabetes

Fasting glucose levels of > or = 126 mg/dL (7. 0 mmol/L)

Ogtt: 2 hour plasma glucose > or = 200 mg/dL (11. 1 mmol/L)

Clinical Features

1. Polyuria

2. Polydipsia

3. Polyphagia

4. Unexplained loss of weight

5. Hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke occur more commonly in diabetics than general population

6. Diabetic nephropathy: changes in the kidneys affecting renal function; causing end stage renal disease

7. Diabetic retinopathy: changes in the retinal arteries causing blindness

8. Diabetic neuropathy: causing damage to the peripheral motor sensory nerves and autonomic nerves; is the major cause of non-traumatic, lower limb amputations.

Management of type Ii diabetes

Is 3 fold:

1. Daily exercise

Exercise should form the basis of stoppage as well as rehabilitation of borderline cased of type Ii diabetes. Resistance training by expanding the muscle mass has a lot of definite effects in diabetes effects. Increased muscle blood flow, potential of muscle as well as mass leads to better discharge of glucose from blood without too much dependency on insulin. Furthermore, decreased abdominal fat leads to better control of insulin secretion. Exercise also causes increased insulin sensitivity in the liver and thereby reduces production of new glucose.

2. Diet

Diet containing involved carbohydrates and protein in aggregate with daily Exercise will effectively control blood glucose levels within general and also prevents the more serious sequelae. Also, ingestion of small meals straight through the day and low glycemic index foods are also good strategies.

3. Drugs

Oral hypoglycemic drugs are prescribed to keep the blood sugar levels within general limits; classified into three categories:

1. Insulin Secretogogues: cause secretion of insulin from the pancreas

2. Insulin Sensitizers: increase the sensitivity of tissue to insulin

3. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors: delay the rate of carbohydrate absorption and digestion and thus effectively control insulin levels and thereby glucose levels.

Diabetes - Facts and Statistics

Borderline Diabetes:

What is it?

Diabetes is a disease where the body cannot properly furnish or use insulin. Insulin is a hormone
that turns the foods you eat into energy. If your body cannot turn food into energy, not only
will your cells be starved for energy, you will also build up glucose (sugar) in your blood.
This will lead you to have "high blood glucose levels." Over years, the high blood glucose
level can damage major organs like your heart, eyes, and kidneys.

Statistics:

Borderline Diabetes:Diabetes - Facts and Statistics

According to the American Diabetes Association, there are 18.2 million population in
the United States with Diabetes. That's 6.3% of the population.

Diabetes is found in both men and women over the age of 20. About one-third of Diabetics do not know that they have it.
African Americans are 1.6 times more likely to have diabetes than Whites.
Latinos are 1.5 times more likely to have diabetes than Whites.

Type 1 is most often found in children, with the peak incidence at puberty.
Type 2 is generally found in adults, however an alarmingly growing whole of children are now
diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes. One of the main causes is overweight.

If you have Type 1, your health care supplier might advise scheduled, nutritious meals, exercise, medication, and frequent blood sugar level tests.
  2. Type 2 Diabetes occurs when the body does not furnish enough insulin or cannot properly use insulin. This is the most common type. The medicine may be similar to Type 1.
  3. Pre Diabetes or Borderline Diabetes may occur before a Type 2 diagnosis. Blood glucose levels will be higher than normal. Good nourishment and rehearsal may be recommended by your health care supplier as medicine for pre diabetes. Even a slightly high blood sugar level is insidious and could work on major organs over time.
  4. Gestational Diabetes occurs in pregnant women that have high blood glucose levels. This type of Diabetes can harm both mother and baby. If you have Gestational Diabetes, your health care supplier may designate meal plans, exercise, daily testing and medicine.

Symptoms:

The main symptom of diabetes is the lack of insulin action or the inability
for the body to generate insulin.

Other symptoms include:

  1. increase in urine production
  2. blurry vision
  3. irritability
  4. extreme hunger

Self-monitoring devices for blood glucose levels and administering insulin are the areas that have seen the most improvement. The following are a list of new medicine options that are currently being researched:

  1. Insulin Pump Implants - a constantly implanted pump that will part blood sugar levels and deliver the exact whole of insulin needed.
  2. Insulin Capsule Implant - an insulin capsule that can be implanted to continuously publish insulin into the bloodstream.
  3. Insulin Inhaler - a rapid-acting insulin that is inhaled into the mouth. Currently in clinical trials.
  4. Insulin Pill - Currently, the pill form has only been tested in animals.
  5. Continuous Monitoring expedient - The GlucoWatch Biographer, a wristwatch-like device, has been stylish by the Fda. It is intended as a companion for the fingertip blood test to monitor glucose, in order to ensure strict results.
  6. Islet Cell Transplant - For population with Type 1 Diabetes, helps patients come to be insulin free for up to 14 months after treatment. Currently in clinical trials.
  7. Gene Therapy
  8. A Diabetes Vaccine - To preclude or slow the develop of Type 1 Diabetes.

How Do You Know If Your Type 2 Diabetes program is Working For You?

Borderline Diabetes:

Having type 2 diabetes unmistakably places a big accountability on you and this can be quite frightening at first. Fortunately the expand of diabetes is slow so this gives you time to educate yourself. When you do understand how to manage and operate your type 2 diabetes it unmistakably just becomes routine... You will reach a point where you feel your life has balance again.

That is not to say there won't be times when you are working hard at reducing your blood sugar levels that you will wonder... "is this working for me"? Or "do I need to convert what I'm doing?"

There are five ways you can tell if your type 2 diabetes program is successful. Each one of them must show real progress; otherwise you risk regressing with your diabetic condition.

Borderline Diabetes:How Do You Know If Your Type 2 Diabetes program is Working For You?

Here are 5 tips that will show you are on target:

1. Blood sugar levels: Your fasting blood sugar level needs to be in the general range for a necessary duration of time in order for you to be carefully 'healed'. As long as your blood sugar levels are advent down to the general range... Fasting >80mg/dL (4.5mmol/L), post prandial or after eating 120mg to 140 mg/dL(6.7 to 7.8mmol/L), you are certainly production progress.

Note though that older citizen with type 2 diabetes may have distinct levels from those who are younger. Fasting blood sugar levels increase by 1 to 2mg/dL (.05 to.1mmol/L) per decade after the age of thirty, and post prandial levels can increase by 8 to 20mg/dL (.4 to 1mmol/L) per decade.

2. Hemoglobin A1c Level (HbA1c): When your HbA1c level falls into the general range, you have achieved success. But don't forget that while it is falling, you are on the right path. Many health care providers set goals for their patients that are 1% higher than normal. Anyone less than 6% is carefully normal, 6 to 8% is borderline, over 8% is high. Your goal unmistakably is to keep your HbA1c as close to general as possible.

3. Weight: Any extra weight creates a health known as insulin resistance where the insulin your body makes has a difficult time getting into your muscle cells. This can at last wear out your pancreas and generate a dependence on insulin injections. For every 10% of body weight you lose, you gain ground on beating your type 2 diabetes. Consider every 10% body weight loss as expand and achieving your ideal body weight as total success.

4. Blood pressure: When blood pressure is too high, there's a risk of developing heart disease. High blood pressure in itself is a form of heart disease. Do you know what your blood pressure is? Ask your health care provider to tell you the next time it is taken. Get that blood pressure level down to normal... A reading less than 120/80 means you have a reduced risk of heart and kidney disease. You have achieved total success here in this category when your blood pressure is in the general zone consistently for three months or longer. But if is high, give yourself a pat on the back when it starts lowering.

5. Exercise: Regular exercise can be a difficult habit for some citizen to develop. When you have a general habit established, you have unmistakably achieved a success milestone in this area. Lack of corporal performance can lead to weight gain and as you know, having too much weight is a big risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Inactivity also contributes to both insulin resistance and high blood sugar levels.

How do you feel and are you on target? Winning with type 2 diabetes is no mistake. You can become totally wholesome once again... The way you felt when you received your type 2 diabetes determination will be a thing of the past. You will feel great most days and love it!
