High blood sugar (Diabetes) affects an estimated 18.2 million Americans, and the number rises each year. High blood sugar (Diabetes) is a chronic Malfunction of mind or body, it means your blood glucose (often called blood sugar) is too high. Your blood always has some glucose in it because your body needs glucose for energy to keep you going. But too much glucose in the blood isn't good for your health. One way it occurs is when the pancreas does not secrete enough of the hormone insulin.

1. Type 1 High blood sugar (Diabetes) (Insulin-dependent High blood sugar): It is an auto-immune problem where the body's defense mechanism of body destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This type of High blood sugar (Diabetes), also known as juvenile-onset High blood sugar (Diabetes), accounts for 10-15% of all people with the problem. It can appear at any age, although commonly under 40, and is triggered by environmental factors such as viruses, diet or chemicals in people genetically predisposed. To live, people with type 1 High blood sugar (Diabetes) must inject themselves with insulin several times a day and follow a careful diet and exercise plan.

2. Type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes) (Non-Insulin dependent High blood sugar): It is the most common form of High blood sugar (Diabetes), affecting 85-90% of all people with the problem. This type of High blood sugar (Diabetes), also known as late-onset High blood sugar (Diabetes), is characterized by insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. The problem is strongly genetic in origin but lifestyle factors such as excess weight, inactivity, high blood pressure and poor diet are major risk factors for its development. Symptoms may not show for many years and, by the time they appear, significant problems may have developed. People with type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes) are twice as likely to suffer cardiovascular problem. Type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes) may be treated by dietary changes, exercise and/or tablets. Insulin injections may later be required.

3. Gestational High blood sugar (Diabetes) mellitus (GDM): GDM, or carbohydrate intolerance, is first diagnosed during pregnancy through an oral glucose tolerance test. Between 5.5 and 8.8% of pregnant women develop GDM in Australia. Risk factors for GDM include a family history of High blood sugar (Diabetes), increasing maternal age, obesity and being a member of a community or ethnic group with a high risk of developing type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes). While the carbohydrate intolerance usually returns to normal after the birth, the mother has a significant risk of developing permanent High blood sugar (Diabetes) while the baby is more likely to develop obesity and impaired glucose tolerance and/or High blood sugar (Diabetes) later in life. Self-care and dietary changes are essential in favorable effects.

Glucose comes from the food eaten and is also made in the liver and muscles. Blood carries the glucose to all the cells in your body. Insulin is a chemical (a hormone) made by the pancreas. The pancreas releases insulin into the blood. Insulin Enhances the glucose from food get into your cells. If the body doesn’t make enough insulin, or if the insulin doesn’t work the way it should, glucose can’t get into your cells. It stays in the blood instead and the blood glucose level then gets too high, causing pre-High blood sugar (Diabetes) or High blood sugar (Diabetes).

Pre-High blood sugar (Diabetes) is a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough for a diagnosis of High blood sugar. People with pre-High blood sugar (Diabetes) are at increased risk for developing type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes) and for heart problem and stroke. The good news is, if any have pre-High blood sugar (Diabetes), they can reduce the risk of getting High blood sugar (Diabetes). With modest weight loss and moderate physical activity, properly can delay or beneficial effects type 2 High blood sugar (Diabetes) and even return to normal glucose levels.

You probably knew something was wrong before your doctor told you that you had High blood sugar (Diabetes), you may have:

• Excessive thirst and appetite

• Increased urination (sometimes as often as every hour)

• Fatigue

• Weight loss

• Blurred vision

• Nausea, perhaps vomiting

• In women, frequent vaginal problem created due to harmful organisms

• In men, impotence

• In men and women, yeast problem created due to harmful organism

If you have type 1 High blood sugar (Diabetes), be especially alert for the warning signs of ketoacidosis: nausea, excessive thirst, frequent urination, extreme weakness, abdominal discomfort and rapid deep breathing. Failure to respond immediately with injections of insulin and intravenous salt solutions (to replenish lost body fluids) can result in coma or death. Following list the symptoms that tell you more specifically that you blood sugar is low (hypoglycemia):

• Shakiness

• Dizziness

• Sweating

• Hunger

• Headache

• Pale skin color

• Sudden moodiness or behavior changes, such as crying for no apparent reason

• Clumsy or jerky movements

• Difficulty paying attention, or confusion

• Tingling sensations around the mouth

Physical activity enhances to burn calories, lower blood glucose levels, build muscle mass and improve body image. Additionally, it improves overall health and well-being.

• Stretch daily.

• Park farther away and walk to destination.

• Take the stairs rather than the elevator.

• Engage in regular aerobic exercise (with approval from your doctor).
