Diabetes Mellitus, or also known as Diabetes, contributes major part on the main cause of death in this modern life. The failure of pancreas to produce insulin in the proper amount or the inability of the body to use insulin, resulting in diabetes, and it should be carefully taken care of. Diabetic person will feel that they have so many diseases or health problems since diabetes is connected with various organs in our body.
When we eat, we also swallow sugar to our stomach, some part of the food we take, changed into sugar by the body. The body automatically balancing the sugar level by producing insulin in pancreas. With the absence or lack of insulin, the problem occur. The blood will be thicker since the sugar content is too high and cannot be controlled anymore. This condition will cause another problems in the future. Uncontrollable blood sugar level may cause diabetic retinopathy and blindness, heart attack, strokes and many more including sexual disability for man. The people who have high blood level in their blood also have a problem with healing from open wound.
We have two main types of diabetes. They are Type I and Type II. Type I occur in people who has pancreas problem. Their pancreas is unable function well, it cannot produce insulin at all. This type is also known as insulin dependent diabetes. This type mostly found on people under the age of 20 years old. In older people, sometimes when the function of pancreas has decrease, it only produce a small amount of insulin or even no longer able to produce it. This condition is known as non-insulin diabetes or diabetes Type II. Diabetes type one is genetically based. It comes with abnormal body immunity. While Type II Diabetes, according to Medical experts, said to be caused by genetics. Another causes until this moment are still haven’t been found.
We will be able to see clearly the symptoms of insulin-dependent diabetes Mellitus or Type I. Unlike type I, type II is like a stealth, the people who suffer from this illness, sometimes do not know if there is something wrong with their blood sugar level, until they suffer from another illness such as heart attack, eye damage, blood vessel ailments, skin damage, kidney problem, and erection problems.
