Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes mellitus type 2
Diabetes
mellitus type 2 (formerly noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or adult-onset
diabetes) is a metabolic disorder that is characterize by high blood glucose in
the context of insulin conflict and relative insulin scarcity. This is in
contrast to diabetes mellitus type 1, in which there is an absolute insulin scarcity
due to damage of islet cells in the pancreas. Many classic symptoms are excess
thirst, passing more urination, and stable hunger. Type 2 diabetes makes up
about 90% of cases of diabetes with the other 10% due primarily to diabetes
mellitus type 1 and gestational diabetics. Obesity/ Fatness are thought to be
the primary cause of type 2 diabetes in people who are genetically of a natureto the disease.
Type
2 diabetes is initially managed by increasing exercise and dietary alteration. But
blood glucose levels are not sufficiently lower by these measures, medications
such as insulin /metformin may be required. Here those on insulin, there is naturally
the requirement to routinely check blood sugar levels.
Rates
of type 2 diabetes have increased markedly over the last 50 years in parallel
with obesity: As of 2010 there are approximately 286 million natives with the
disease compared to around 35 million in 1985. Continuing complications from
high blood sugar can include stroke, heart disease, diabetic retinopathy where vision
is exaggerated, kidney malfunction
which may require dialysis, and poor circulation in the limbs important to
amputation. That sharp complication of keto acidosis, a feature of type 1
diabetes, is uncommon.

Helps You and Your Family to Push-Back Diabetes
Genetic Risk
Assessment Scoring System:
Incidence of Diabetes
is increasing, yet most cases of Diabetes are preventable with healthy
lifestyle changes and even reversed. Although genes and ethnicity are risk
factors for Diabetes, they are not the sole determinants of whether someone
develops the disease. Environment plays a role, and also does lifestyle.
Staying active,
maintaining an optimum weight and eating a balanced diet can help postpone or
prevent type 2 Diabetes, even for people who have hereditary predisposition.
GRASS is a new
valuable scoring tool developed by us, as a result of our extensive research of
over 20 years, which included our patients, volunteers, various research
references and our technical support team.
It asks for some very
basic details and provides the best prognostic reports of your Susceptibility,
Risk of developing Diabetes, and the Age at which you may get it, and also
suggest the life style modifications, and unique kitchen spices, by which you
can postpone or prevent Diabetes.
