Guidelines For A Person With Diabetes Mellitus Type II

Although not effective for everyone but many people have found pharmacotherapy has the ability to stabilize their condition. For most people with diabetes, the most challenging in the treatment plan is to determine what food to eat. There is not a one-size-fits-all eating pattern for individuals with diabetes. The integral role of nutrition therapy in overall diabetes management and has historically recommended that each person with diabetes be actively engaged in self-management, education, and treatment planning with health care provider, which includes the collaborative development of an individualized eating plan. Therefore, it is important that all members of the health care team be knowledgeable about diabetes nutrition therapy and support its implementation.

Type 2 diabetes has become an epidemic in the United States. Diabetes affects 25.8 mil-lion people of all ages, which is 8.3% of the total population in the United States (NDIC, 2011). Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90-95% of all diabetes cases and is strongly associated with obesity, age, and physical inactivity (NDIC, 2011). Apart from its prevalence, diabetes involves direct medical costs of $116 billion, and medical expenditures for those with the diagnosis are 2.3 times higher than expenditures would be in the absence of diabetes (NDIC, 2011). Practitioners need to focus on finding the perfect treatment regimen, which may include physical activity along with diet modifications and pharmacologic interventions, in an effort to decrease the financial burden, control blood glucose levels, and improve the overall health of this population. The com-plications of untreated type 2 diabetes can be fatal, with heart disease, stroke, hypertension, blindness, kidney disease, and amputation among the more serious problems (NDIC, 2011). As a future family nurse practitioner, I will treat hundreds of adults and even children with type 2 di-abetes or at risk for it, and knowing the most successful interventions is foundational to being able to provide the best care to this patient population.

Type II Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that influences the physical and social aspects of life for millions of people living in New York City (NYC). The excess accumulation of glucose in the blood caused by this disease can lead to the breakdown of many organs in the human body leading to increased hospitalizations and mortality. Although diabetes is a manageable disease given the appropriate care and education, the disease and its complications disproportionately affect African-Americans or non-Hispanic blacks then any other ethnic group in NYC. The NYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) reports death rates among black New Yorkers are higher than among whites, regardless of neighborhood income. There is a significant number of non-Hispanic blacks afflicted in low-income neighborhoods due to the environmental injustices such as lack of fresh food options, neighborhood poverty, and limited recreational space for physical activity and exercise. With lifestyle modification as the mainstay of treatment, recognizing the environmental deficiencies and rectifying these problems at the local and federal levels will help to decrease this health disparity.

Type two diabetes is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. It affects more Americans than most non-communicable diseases (Healthy People 2020, 2016). This public health issue has an urgency to be addressed and resolved. Several interventions should take place in order to see what works best for prevention and treatment of type two diabetes. Diet and physical activity are two of the most common predicators of type two diabetes. Richard Riegelman’s textbook on public health (2010) explains that the actual causes of death in the United States the second highest being diet and physical activity at four-hundred-thousand deaths (Riegelman, 2010). This gives reason to believe that a healthy diet and physical activity is a good start to the intervention and prevention of type two diabetes.

The study included one of four groups control, diet, exercise, and diet plus exercise. The control and exercise groups were given a mild hypocaloric diet. A total of 1200kcal/day was assigned to the diet and diet plus exercise groups to reduce energy expenditure. The control and diet groups did physical activity for 150 minutes or more per week for exercise. Individuals that were in the "exercise" and "diet plus exercise" groups were requested to walk briskly for 120 minutes every day. All subjects were given an accelerometer to correlate with the physical activity analysis software. At the end of the 12-week program, exercise intervention plus dietary restriction reduced the visceral fat level significantly. Total energy expenditure decreased visceral fat while only physical activity energy expenditure was corresponding with the amount of moderate-to- vigorous activity, improved insulin sensitivity along with mean energy intake during the intervention. Obese women with Type 2 diabetes, showed improvement in insulin sensitivity through exercise and dietary restriction (Koo, B. K., Han, K. A., Ahn, H. J., Jung, J. Y., Kim, H. C., & Min, K. W., 2010.) Individuals affected by Type 2 diabetes have a higher chance of developing cardiovascular disease (Koo, B.K., et.al, 2010). Management of Type 2 diabetes is attainable through lifestyle modification, especially

Patients who are considered at risk, prediabetes and type 2 will be discharged with this brochure. My goal is to provide efficient and effective preventive teaching in order to reduce this deadly disease from occurring and provide physical activity goals that everyone can incorporate in their daily lives and to make healthy lifestyle changes. As previously stated, diabetes ranks seventh among deaths in the United States. The number of people developing diabetes is rising at alarming rates and must be stopped. According to the American Diabetes Association 1.4 million new cases of diabetes are diagnosed each year. The total cost of diagnosed diabetes was $245 billion dollars. Direct medical cost was $176 billion and $69 billion in reduced productivity (American diabetes association, n.d.). Not only does the cost to treat diabetes outrageous, but the number of complications and co-morbid conditions contribute to rising health care cost each year and possible death. These complications and co morbid conditions include hypoglycemia, high blood pressure, cardiovascular death, heart attack, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and amputations (American diabetes association, n.d.). Far too often, I see patients coming into the hospital overweight, with poor eating habits and lack of daily activity. Most of these patients have diabetes as a diagnosis or are

Loss in weight with help of lifestyle interventions has been shown to decrease the chances of diabetes by 58%. The incidence of non insulin dependent diabetes is 3-7 times greater in over weight as compared to average weight adults , amendment in lifestyle also denoted as behavioral weight control includes three basic factors: diet, exercise and behavior therapy. Being diagnosed with diabetes can be frightened for every patient for example why it happens? How it will affect your everyday life? What can be the complications going to be occurred due to this disease? Lifestyle modification focus at decreasing energy input and fostering physical movement is the main procedure for obese clients with type 2 diabetes. Even significant weight reduction contributing enhanced movement can enhance insulin sensitivity and glycemic control in clients with non insulin dependent

The worldwide prevalence of type 2 diabetes is skyrocketing alarmingly to epidemic proportions. According to King, Aubert and Herman (1998), in the year 2000 there were 150 million people with type 2 diabetes worldwide, and this number is expected to double by 2025. This explosive increase in type 2 diabetes prevalence is also associated with a significant increase in morbidity and mortality. (Dankner, Abdul-Ghani, Gerber, Chetit, Wainstein and Raz, 2007). This global increase in diabetes will occur because of population ageing and growth, and because of increasing trends towards obesity, unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles. Worldwide, according to the WHO Diabetes Action Now

The purpose of this journal is to conduct research of the leading healthy indicator nutrition, physical activity and obesity targeting the importance of nutritional aspects for the prevention and maintenance of diabetes. The importance of health proportion; relating to Healthy People 2020 goals, and education of nutritional diabetic plans are important aspects relating to diabetes.

Initial treatment of type 2 diabetes involves lifestyle modifications (American Diabetes Association [ADA], 2014, p. S31). With obesity as the leading risk factor of type 2 diabetes, initial interventions are based around patient education, increasing physical activity, reducing weight, and increasing lean muscle mass. The American Diabetes Association standards of care published in 2014 recommends a moderate weight loss of 7% of total body weight and increasing activity to 150 minutes per week (ADA, 2014, p. S31). Modest loss of weight and increase of physical activity has a significant impact on the reduction of insulin resistance, glucose metabolism, and delay in the onset of type 2 diabetes. If lifestyle modifications and education interventions are not effective or if the severity of illness is more advanced, the provider should consider pharmacological interventions in addition to ongoing education and lifestyle changes.

There's a out of the ordinary weight loss program for diabetes patients in the marketplace. This plan is now regarded by numerous to be an effective answer in dealing with weight loss to help treat diabetic issues. It's a alteration of the admired Nutrisystem food packages providing to the needs of the diabetes patients. Nutrisystem D proves to work in three ways: (1) empowers you to lose excessive weight without difficulty; (2) reduces your blood sugar; and (3) drops your glycated hemoglobin.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a challenging disease process. It requires much work on the behalf of the patient. Patients are required to monitor their glucose levels. Those that must monitor during work hour find it inconvenient. The change in diet is challenging as they must develop new eating habits. At my practicum, classes are offered to teach patients portion control, starch counting, and finding food substitutes. Along with diet, exercise is a key factor in controlling glucose. According to Lumb (2014), low to moderate activity is beneficial in reducing glucose levels. FNPs must meet the challenge of education and medication with diabetics. Patients must be educated about burden and benefits of glycemic control. Medication for

``Nutritional Therapeutic Interventions for diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome`` is topic of an eBook that the outer tries to explains first about the diabetes disease and how it happens in a human body. And then he mentions about the severity of the illness and how the epidemic of this disease is growing and is affecting more than 230 million people of the world and approximately 20 million people in the United States. He points out that the numbers will be increase by 70% in next 25 years. He illustrates the connection between the diabetes and cardiovascular disease and he gives numerous statistics about the costs of the health care ($92 billion) and how the issue is importance in the United States. The outer points out the strategies to prevent diabetes, obesity, and other issues related to the metabolic syndrome. The book is reviewed by experts of all around the world and has a scientific discussion over the issue and is a reliable reference for those who working or researching about diabetes disease.

Today, millions of new people become affected by type 2 diabetes every year. Diabetes ranks seventh among the leading causes of death in the United States and is causes more deaths than breast cancer and AIDS combined. Most people don't know how deadly this disease is. Weight loss is a primary goal towards preventing the disease. Therefore, almost every day companies introduce new medicines, pills, and diet plans that promise weight loss. These techniques are not always effective and they can be extremely expensive. However, there is an inexpensive old stand-by called “exercise” that has been proven over and over to reduce and control weight. Exercise is the most offered suggestion by doctors to prevent adult onset diabetes. People have to
