The Importance Of Advances In Healthcare Science

Diabetes is a disease that causes the human body to not create or not use insulin effectively. The body needs insulin to take the energy or sugars and turn it into energy. The human body needs energy to survive. Diabetes can be broken into three main categories. Type 1 diabetes is where the body makes no insulin at all. Type 2 diabetes is where the body does not produce enough insulin or it does not use it correctly. Gestational diabetes is more of a type 2 diabetes for pregnant women, which usually returns to normal after birth (Ruder 7-8).

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is viral infection that weakens the immune system of the body and eventually causes AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) the last stage of the disease where a person can die. The virus has plagued the African American communities and continues to disproportionately impact the black race more than any other racial or ethnical group.

Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce enough insulin, a hormone needed to convert the sugars and starches that we eat into energy needed for daily life. The cause of the disease is a mystery, but genetics and environment seem to play major roles. There are two kinds of Diabetes, Diabetes Insipidus and the more common Diabetes Mellitus. Diabetes Insipidus is a rare disease caused by a deficiency of vasopressin, a hormone of the posterior pituitary gland that

Diabetes is a disease in which the body is unable to properly use and store glucose. The glucose then backs up in the blood stream and causes a person’s blood sugar to rise to high. There are two types of Diabetes. Type 1 is referred to as Insulin Dependent Diabetes. In this type the body completely stops producing insulin. Insulin is the hormone that lets the body use the glucose found in foods for energy.

Diabetes is a very common chronic medial disorder and expected to be a big medical challenge of the twenty first century (Clark, 2004). It is a condition, in which the glucose level in the blood becomes so high that the body is unable to utilize it properly. This long-term condition results when the pancreas of the victim is either not able to produce enough insulin (sometimes even cannot produce any insulin) or the insulin produced cannot work properly. Diabetes is divided into two main types: Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1, also known as insulin dependent diabetes milletus (Masharani, 2008) cannot be prevent while Type 2 can be prevented but if the patient is at pre-diabetes stage.

Diabetes is primarily diagnosed based on blood tests evaluating your glucose levels and hemoglobin A1C. Hemoglobin A1C gives your doctor an idea of how well your diabetes has been controlled in the past several months. The

Diabetes Today i will talk about diabetes and the different types of diabetes. Diabetes is a group of diseases that result in too much sugar in the blood or high blood glucose .Type one diabetes is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces a little or no insulin . Type two diabetes is a condition that affects the way a person body processes blood sugar. What is type 1 diabetes you ask, Type one diabetes is a disease in which a person’s pancreas stops producing insulin a hormone that lets people get energy from there food.

Diabetes WA (2009), state that diabetes is a serious health condition for which there is no cure. It occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. Assigning a type of diabetes to an individual often depends on the circumstances present at the time of diagnosis, and many diabetic individuals do not easily fit into a single class (American Diabetes Association”, 2011).

You might be asking yourself, “what exactly is diabetes and how can we treat it?” Diabetes is a disease where blood glucose levels exceed the normal level you should have. According to What is Diabetes? this happens because, “When you eat, your body turns food into sugars, or glucose. At that point, your pancreas is supposed to release insulin. But with diabetes, this system does not work” (What is Diabetes, 2016). There are many medical treatments and nutritional treatments for diabetes. There are many different types of diabetes, some more dangerous than others. There are three types that I’ve heard the most about which would be Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes. The thing about diabetes is that it can happen to anyone who walks this earth, so it is good for everyone to be aware of this disease and how to take care of it.

There are two types of diabetes. You become victim of Type 1 diabetes when your body does not produce insulin at all. One is having the problem of Type 2 diabetes when the body does not produce sufficient amount of insulin or it is not properly utilised by the cell to digest the sugar in the blood. Both types of blood sugar can be prevented or controlled with the changes in the life style and exercises. These changes including good habits can have a great positive effect and results.

In light of the continued advancement of technology and research in the medical field, there have been some groundbreaking developments that have been heralded as indications that scientific research can produce remarkable results when it is integrated with technology. Since the turn of the 20th century, major breakthroughs like the discovery of DNA and the development of anti-retroviral drugs for HIV/AIDS have been cited as the reason why scientific research especially in the medical field must be supported. Research on Stem cell has been particularly singled out as a new avenue for prolonging life and alleviating diseases, but just like all scientific research developments it has come with its fair share of

     Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body produces too little insulin (Type One Diabetes) or can’t use available insulin efficiently ( Type Two Diabetes). Insulin is a hormone vital to helping the body use digested food for growth and energy.

HIV is the human immunodeficiency virus that causes AIDS. A member of a group of viruses called retroviruses, HIV infects human cells and uses the energy and nutrients provided by those cells to grow and reproduce. AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is a disease in which the body's immune system breaks down and is unable to fight off certain infections, known as "opportunistic infections," and other illnesses that take advantage of a weakened immune system. When a person is infected with HIV, the virus enters the body and lives and multiplies primarily in the white blood cells. These are the immune cells that normally protect us from disease.

HIV is an incurable disease that affects the immune system by attacking T cells (help to fight infections) which unlike normal cells throughout the body cannot be rejuvenated. HIV is contracted through exposure to blood or bodily fluids containing the virus, weakening the immune system to levels in which the body becomes prone to infection and illness. Due to lack of

HIV, or the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a virus which damages and kills cells of the immune system. It attacks the T-cells, key cells of the immune system, and uses them to make copies of itself. After being infected with the virus it progressively interferes and eventually destroys the immune system's ability to fight the anti-genes. HIV may develop into the syndrome AIDS, the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. HIV is an STD - a sexually transmitted disease - and therefore most commonly it is spread through sexual contact, and the virus mainly enters the body through the penis, mouth, lining of the vagina or vulva during sexual activity. HIV can also be spread through sharing syringes or needles with someone who is infected with the
