Avatar f tn I have been looking into this blood type diet myself being a blood type O but recently I have become concerned if I suffer manic episodes or am bipolar. Certain periods in my life become notably amazing. Usually when Im relatively lean I find myself with too much energy than I know what to do with! My social life improves dramatically! I quit 2 different jobs during these periods of "high". I almost become contagious during these periods wishing I could feel like this forever!
Avatar f tn Diet soda jacks up your system making your pancreas produce insulin when there is no food to digest. You really should research the harmful effects diet beverages have on your body. Just drink water. It's really the best thing for you.
576132 tn?1226972173 I am sexually active, I usually take BC pills, but recently I have been on a very strict diet for the past 5 weeks, I haven't been eating more than 500 calories a day. I stopped taking my birthcontroll because they make you gain weight and i thought that a baby probably wouldnt be able to grow in a body with such little nutrients because I've been eatiing so little.

Avatar m tn m now 17 i have read many of these threads an they all seem to talk about marijuana not being bad besides the munchies fact, but i want to know if inhaling marijuana smoke (emphasis on the smoke) is less or more harmful than tobacco smoke. because seeing as how tobacco smoke messes with blood circulation, blood pressure,and that smoke hardens your nerves and arteries. i want to know if the marijuana smoke is any different or less detrimental to type 1 diabetics.
1216231 tn?1272475704 ve heard of that blood-type diet, but I doubt it has any real bearing on how much of what type of meat we should eat. Also, there's just no way under the sun I'd ever become a vegetarian. Just look at our teeth. The incisors and canines are meant for tearing while the back ones are flat and only meant for mashing. http://bit.ly/d4jhyt If we were meant to be herbivores, we would not have incisors or canines.
Avatar f tn High fructose corn syrup is another dangerous sugar that many soda pop brands contain. This harmful sugar goes straight into the blood once ingested and adversely affects blood sugar levels almost instantly. ACE-K is one of the latest synthetic sweeteners added to soda pop, such as certain brands of Pepsi-Cola (Pepsi One). This drug adversely affects the brain.
Avatar f tn I would like to add Selenium 100 or 200mcg to this. Would this, be advised as helpful or harmful? I also have type II diabetes that I am not taking any medication for, strictly diet. I prefer natural over chemical medications. Would Selenium help both?
Avatar n tn My doctor just told me that I am slightly hypertensive and borderline type II diabetic. She put me on the diet plan for daibetics and I like it. I've been losing weight and getting energy highs then I get the "munchies" for popcorn and BBQ chips. I can't drink fruit juices or anything else except diet soda, water, and diet teas or sugar free Kool Aid. But if I drink the sugar free stuff I get so "gassy" and diarrhea. This part ***** big time.
Avatar f tn I have Type 1 Diabetes and have very high blood sugar ( in the 400-600 range). I take 5 shots of insulin a day but am insulin resistant. Had 4 drinks and got pulled over and got a DWI. I'm wondering if there is any correlation between having a high blood alcohol content and high blood sugar, as high blood sugar turns into alcohol. Anyone know?
Avatar m tn For others, it significantly slows the progress so that they can maintain on diet and exercise or the addition of an oral med for many years. Normal blood sugars are fasting under 100 and two hours post prandial under 140. People who are non-diabetic rarely go over 120. There is little reason to do random blood sugars, they don't tell you very much; I would suggest fasting blood sugar and then two hours after meals. This tells you how different foods affect you and how high you are going.
Avatar m tn This in turn can lead to over-production of fat which can be harmful for your health. Foods with the highest fructose content are peaches, prunes, pears, cherries, plums, apples and apple cider, grapes and dates. These fruits are hardest to digest and can cause fructose intolerance. Excessive fructose can lead to leptin resistance, which could cause weight gain if combined with a high fat and calorie diet. High levels of fructose can also raise blood pressure. Do write to us again.
Avatar n tn Hi Lizzy, you are still diabetic... completely normal blood glucose is a hba1c of 5.0 or less. Prediabetic is usually considered as 5.7 - 6.5, and diabetic as 6.5. But being diabetic is sometimes likened to being pregnant... whether 6 weeks or 9 months you are still pregnant. So slightly high or very high, is still diabetic. To give you some perspective. Normal blood sugars will typically be < 100 all the time. Hba1c of 6.9 gives you average BG of about 160. Hab1c of 6.
307500 tn?1302116146 Says because I have Clusters of AutoImmune Diseases I most likly have type 1 diabetes. This week He has run lost of test, blood, and heart tests and blood flow. I have been put on every poral pill and it hasn't dropped my BS. MY lst A1C was 7.0, I have been on a very low carb diet for yrs, I think if I weren't my BS would be alot higher all the time. My ? is could I be type 1 because of all the Auto disease and the age of 16 diagnoses?
Avatar f tn I would encourage him to eat fruits, vegetables and lean meats so that he may maintain a healthy diet, that will also be easier on his blood sugar response.
Avatar f tn This would involve evaluation of c-peptide, antibodies, and insulin levels correlated with blood sugar levels. Type 1 is lack of insulin (and needs injected insulin), Type 2 is plenty of insulin, but there is insulin resistance and the insulin is not effective. For Type 2, oral meds may be appropriate. If it is adult onset type 1, it may develop quickly. Therefore, I suggest your read up on syptoms of both type 1 and type 2 and if you develop symptoms then you must go to your Dr.
Avatar f tn To help control your blood sugar (aside from the insulin) you need to adopt the followign for diet and exercise:- 1. Ideally 30 minutes of exercise after each meal. However, this may not always be possible, but do aim at 30 minutes of moderate exercise (brisk walking, stationary bike, swimming, etc) every day. 2. Avoid white carbs. By this I mean white bread, rice, pasta, all candies and sweets and processed foods. Avoid fruit juice. 3.

Avatar f tn m a newly diagnosed diabetic (age 67) and am taking 7 days worth of Prednisone for a touch of pneumonia. My blood sugar has gone to 200. Is there something I can do to keep it down (my normal is usually around 120) and am I hurting myself during these 7 days? How high do I let it go before I call for help? Thanks for your help.
Avatar m tn Hi, Hyperlipidemia means an increase in the levels of bad fats/bad cholesterol in the blood. This can be harmful in the long run as these fats tend to get deposited in the inner lining of the blood vessels of the vital organs like kidneys, heart, brain etc.
Avatar f tn Well thanks for the reply there! But isn't ginger ale harmful to the pregnancy for the first few months because of its "stingy-ness"? Other than that I shall take into consideration. I was given a nauseous medication but it's not working at all..
