WHAT IS DIABETES???

A GROUP OF METABOLICDISEASES IN WHICH THEREARE HIGH BLOOD SUGARLEVELS OVER A PROLONGEDPERIOD.

SYMPTOMS:

• FREQUENT URINATION

• INCREASED THIRST

• INCREASED HUNGER

• SUDDEN WEIGHT LOSS

IF UNTREATED

• DIABETIC KETO ACIDOSIS

• NEUROPATHY (LEADING TO PAIN IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE BODY)

• HEART DISEASE

• STROKE

• CHRONIC KIDNEY FAILURE

• FOOT ULCERS

• RETINOPATHY (DAMAGE TO THE EYES).

CAUSE:

Diabetes is due to

EITHER THE PANCREAS NOT PRODUCINGENOUGH INSULIN OR

THE CELLS OF THE BODY NOTRESPONDING PROPERLY TO THE INSULINPRODUCED (INSULIN RESISTANCE)

TYPES:

Type 1 DM "Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus" (IDDM)or "Juvenile Diabetes". The cause is unknown.

Type 2 DM "Non Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus"(NIDDM) or "ADULT-ONSET DIABETES". The primarycause is excessive body weight and not enough exercise.

CALORIE RESTRICTION IN CASE OF OBESITY /SEDENTARY LIFE STYLE ie., LESS THAN 1500 KCAL PER DAY.

REDUCE THE INTAKE OF SALT, SUGAR ANDALCOHOL.

GLYCEMIC INDEX & GLYCEMIC LOAD

• The Glycemic Index (GI) is a relative ranking ofcarbohydrate in foods according to how they affect bloodglucose levels. Carbohydrates with a low GI value (55 orless) are more slowly digested, absorbed and metabolisedand cause a lower and slower rise in blood glucose.

• The Glycemic Load (GL) of food is a number thatestimates how much the food will raise a person's bloodglucose level after eating it. One unit of Glycemic Loadapproximates the effect of consuming one gram of glucose.

OIL INTAKE PER DAY

•Daily recommended intake of cooking oil for an adultis about 20g which is about 4 teaspoons.

•For weight loss diet less than 3 tsp oil per day.

•Similarly, any heart condition, less than2 tsp/day.

•The Recommended Dose For Kids Is Slightly Higher - 5Tsp/Day Until The Age Of Nine And Then It Reduces To 4.5Tsp Per Day.

ROLE OF SLEEP

• When you don't sleep enough, your cortisollevels rise. This is the stress hormone that isfrequently associated with fat gain. Cortisol alsoactivates reward centres in your brain that makeyou want food.

• At the same time, the loss of sleep causes your body to produce more ghrelin.

• Sleep controls your diet

• Poor sleep changes your fat cells

• Lack of rest makes you crave food
