DIABETES & AYURVEDA

UNDERSTANDING DIABETES:

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by persistently high blood glucose levels. It occurs when the body either doesn't produce enough insulin, or when the cells become resistant to the effects of insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar. Chronic hyperglycemia can damage various organs and systems, leading to serious health complications. 

Types of Diabetes Mellitus:

1. Type 1 Diabetes: An autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks and destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. 
2. Type 2 Diabetes: Characterized by insulin resistance, where the body's cells don't respond properly to insulin, and the pancreas may not produce enough insulin to compensate. 
3. Gestational Diabetes: Develops during pregnancy and typically resolves after delivery, but increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life.
4. Drug Induced: some drugs like statins and steroids may cause diabetes.

Symptoms of Diabetes Mellitus:

Increased thirst and frequent urination (polyuria)
Unexplained weight loss
Increased hunger (polyphagia)
Blurry vision
Slow-healing sores
Fatigue and weakness
Numbness or tingling in the hands and feet 

Causes and Risk Factors: by knowing risk factors, you can prevent diabetes.

Type 1 Diabetes:Genetic predisposition and environmental factors are thought to play a role, although the exact cause is unknown. 
Type 2 Diabetes: Risk factors include obesity, lack of physical activity, family history, ethnicity, and age. Gestational Diabetes: Risk factors include previous gestational diabetes, obesity, family history, and certain ethnicities. 

Complications of Diabetes Mellitus:

Cardiovascular Disease: Increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease 
Kidney Disease (Nephropathy): Damage to the blood vessels in the kidneys, potentially leading to kidney failure 
Nerve Damage (Neuropathy): Can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the hands and feet, as well as other health issues 
Eye Damage (Retinopathy): Damage to the blood vessels in the retina, potentially leading to blindness 
Foot Problems: Increased risk of infections, ulcers, and amputations due to poor circulation and nerve damage 
Skin Problems: Increased susceptibility to infections, such as fungal and bacterial infections 
Dental Problems: Increased risk of gum disease and tooth decay. 
Mental Health Problems: Diabetes can be associated with increased risk of depression and anxiety. 

Management and Treatment:
Diet: A healthy diet low in added sugars, refined carbohydrates, and saturated fats, and rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains is crucial. 
Exercise: Regular physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control.
