Write An Essay On Type Two Diabetes

The objective of this chapter is to provide a well detailed systematic critical analysis of the chosen articles related to the research questions previously identified in chapter 1. This chapter has been divided into sub-sections to reflect the research questions of the literature review.

1. What are the symptoms of diabetes? Symptoms of diabetes include excessive thirst or urination, fatigue, weight loss, or blurred vision. 2.

Type 2 diabetes is a very serious disease with many life threatening consequences, but if it is manage properly through preventative measures, diabetics can live a normal life.

Type 2 diabetes can be hereditary. In this case, the body either doesn’t produce enough insulin, or it resists insulin. Some of the symptoms may be increased thirst, frequent urination, hunger, fatigue, and blurred vision. In other cases, they might not show any symptoms. It can be treated with diet, exercise, medication and insulin therapy.

According to Healthy People 2020 (2014), diabetes affects over 29 million people in the United States, with another estimated 28 percent of the population having undiagnosed cases. Of those at risk, African Americans are almost 2 times more likely to be diagnosed as opposed to their Caucasian counterparts. Many preventable associated factors include limited knowledge regarding disease processes, healthy diet, and limited knowledge of one’s own body. Our goal is to provide our African American community the opportunity to learn more about diabetes and how to reduce the risk of type II diabetes and signs and symptoms of diabetes during a community event.

People often do not realize how deadly and complicated diabetes is. When first diagnosed with diabetes patients may often be confused by how their lifestyle will have to change. Some patients may not even know how serious the complications may be. This information is to help not only the people who are affected by diabetes but also to inform everyone on how to help prevent the onset of diabetes.

Diabetes is a common disease, which can be a serious life-long illness caused by high level of glucose in the blood. This condition is when the body cannot produce insulin or lack of insulin production from the beta cells

The symptoms of type 1 diabetes are sudden with onset and may include excessive thirst, frequent urination, bedwetting in children who previously didn’t wet the bed during the night, increased hunger, unintended weight loss, restlessness, and other mood changes, fatigue and weakness, blurred vision, in females- a vaginal yeast infection. The symptoms for type 2 diabetes may not be detected or may be absent making it difficult to diagnose. Symptoms include

3. The symptoms come on gradually but many people with type 2 diabetes symptoms are diagnosed after a blood glucose test. The Symptoms include: · Feeling tired · Passing urine frequently · Feeling constantly thirsty · Blurred vision · Itching of the skin or genital area · Slow healing infections · Numbness and tingling in hands or feet · Weight loss · Tiredness · Wounds don't heal easily · Increased hunger 4. Doctors prescribe a new diet which helps to loss weight and control diabetes are high protein, high carbohydrate and high fiber diets.

This is the prime reason that knowledge of diabetes symptoms is important so one can diagnose the disease as early as possible and can delay the onset of diabetic complications.

Diabetes is a disease that cases blood glucose levels to rise higher than normal in the body. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes when being compared to type 1diabetes. When blood sugars rises to levels higher than normal it is called hyperglycemia. Diabetes, type 2 can result in many different issues that affect the body. There are many complications that are linked with diabetes for example, higher risk

Type 2 diabetes is when your body is not creating enough insulin to keep their sugar levels at the right level. According to a website called , ‘comvita’ Insulin resistance occurs when the cells in our body stop responding adequately to the insulin secreted, which leaves sugar circulating in our bloodstream rather than being stored for further use in our muscle, fat or liver cells. Insulin resistance is one of the initial factors that trigger Type 2 Diabetes. There are drugs like

     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.

The disease I chose to write on research paper is Diabetes Mellitus Type II. Diabetes is one of the major chronic diseases caused by the insulin resistance that body generates within. It is a serious public health issue currently. There are different types of diabetes we encounter nowadays, but the three main types are Type I, Type II and gestational diabetes (Diabetes Mellitus,2005-2016). The type II diabetes is a non-controlled disease and it is the most common and also known as non-insulin dependent diabetes (Diabetes Mellitus,2005-2016). The impact on the human physiology is by insufficient production of sugar (insulin) in the bloodstream which then over the time damages to other organs. According to Public Health Agency of Canada,

Type 2 Diabetes is when the cells in your body doesn’t recognise the insulin that is present, or that the body doesn’t produce enough insulin to control the glucose (sugar) in the blood stream. So what happens is that the food consumed by people with type 2 diabetes gets broken down into glucose which then enters the bloodstream. Then the gastric hormones promote insulin secretion in response to glucose but then this is where the dilemma is for people with type 2 diabetes because the pancreas does produce the insulin needed but their body is resistant to it’s effects which is called insulin resistance. When the cells don’t recognise or allow the insulin to enter the cell the excess glucose gets absorbed by the cell lining in the blood vessels and become leaky and can become potentially blocked. This can cause the damage of small blood vessels and other major diseases such as eye, kidney failure and heart disease. So this is why people with type 2
