Type I diabetes: 6% of diabetic patients, also known as youthful or insulin-dependent diabetes, is mainly characterized because their beta cells of Langerhans islets of their pancreas do not produce insulin, these patients should be treated with:
1.- Education and awareness of the diabetic patient and his family about his illness.
2.- Insulina, your doctor will indicate which according to each case.
3.- Diet appropriate to each patient.
4.- Also adequate exercise to each patient.
Type II Diabetes: The 94% of diabetic patients are suffered and divided into:
Type II A: thin people (20%) approximately 19 out of 100.
Type II B: overweight or obese people (80%) approximately 75 out of every 100.
Also known as non -insulin diabetes, it is characterized in that their beta cells of Langerhans isletUnfortunately, we see it today in very young children (and nevertheless this situation has not been taken with the necessary seriousness this problem, these patients should be treated with:
1.- Education and awareness of the diabetic patient and his family about his illness.(Recall that education and awareness of the treatment is the treatment in itself).
2.- Diet appropriate to each patient.
3.- Adequate exercise to each patient.
4.- Insulin in case the above measures are not sufficient.
When we talk about the treatment for diabetes control, we must not forget that this must be effective and with responsibility to obtain the best possible results, then I will tell you what is being done in GHG Diabetic Pie Civil Association trying to have theBetter results:
The training talks are for the diabetic patient and his family and for no reason we put time limit to give an issue;We start a topic and if necessary 2 or 5 talks to give it as clear as possible and explaining each term that do not understand the sick, who know why complications happen and mainly how to prevent them, which increases the chances of people understandingBetter each issue and consequently your illness.Generally in other groups there is a agenda with an already determined time generally 50 minutes at one hour for each topic and it must be given according to the planned, in most cases medical terms are used that many patients understand, so they endHis theme and most of the time the sick are more confused, but the joke is to fulfill and unfortunately is lost time.
When we talk about diets, in GHG Diabetic Pie Civil Association, we do not have pre -established diets for being diabetics or prohibiting anything we only talk about dispensing, what we do is a very meticulous investigation into food in each diabetic patient detecting what foods tend to raise theBlood sugar levels so that they are ingested in less quantity and together with the reports of physical activity and insulin doses and obtaining ideal portions each patient without being hungry.Recall that we are individuals that each of us are different and it is not about cooking recipes and if to give the patient the opportunity to make their menus according to their possibilities.
With the exercise, many factors must be taken into account, such as age, physical limitations and their general health status, according to these plan the type and time of exercise that each patient is unique and eachone of them requires certain exercises,
You have to find theIdeal exercises for each patient, remember doctors we attend sick and each patient is unique, no diseases.
The treatment for diabetes control is achieved by finding the ideal insulin dose for each diabetic patient, analyzing their diet and physical activity.We are convinced that diabetes is that the diabetic patient lacks insulin and therefore the treatment for control is insulin.
Above all, we must follow up on the treatments, we all know that if we do not follow up on our activities or jobs they will always go wrong, at this point I think that health systems must be revalued, to give more follow -up to each case anddecrease complications.
Remember preventive medicine is the cheapest and the most effective, so I invite you to go every Saturday to the Red Cross of 10:00 a.m.at 12:00 p.m.Where we have our meetings to be in continuous training and therefore be able to better control our diabetes.
