5536886 tn?1455827346 I just heard about a program offered in a local hospital that is for the education of diabetes prevention- it looked really awesome! I'm thinking about checking it out further to see what information they have- do you have a program like this in your area? Have you checked it out and gotten any new information? Was it helpful for you?
Avatar f tn A family history of diabetes can result with a diabetes gene being passed to the next generation by one or both parents, in rare cases from the grandparents skipping a generation. The problem area lays with the actual genetic testing as it's still not fully comprehended or in place. In your case, Ruthie, if you wish further analysis I suggest you get your thyroid and pancreas checked. A malfunctioning thyroid will disrupt pancreas insulin production.
Avatar f tn I have read online that cutting out carbs is important for diabetes prevention, but carbs are a large part of my diet and I am pretty skinny already, so whenever I try to cut out carbs or cut down on carbs, I end up getting sick. Maybe it is coincidence, but I feel like it significantly impacts my immune system when I don't eat carbs. What should I do?
973741 tn?1342342773 So, when do you start worrying about diabetes prevention? Is there a certain age? Do you wait until things show on blood work to indicate it's time to start thinking about it? I guess a no brainer is to continually be aware of being a good weight and exercising regularly. But we hear about pre-diabetes. What exactly is that and when is it time for someone to make SURE they are doing what they need to do to prevent?
Avatar f tn It will take a combination of personal decisions and policy changes to turn the diabetes rate around. Making healthy food more accessible and implementing prevention programs will help, she said. One such program is the CDC's new National Diabetes Prevention Program, which aims to provide people with information about diabetes, promote lifestyle changes and reduce disparities between different groups.
Avatar f tn As far as reducing your risk for Type 2 Diabetes in general, whether you ave Hepatitis C or not, a healthy diet (fresh vegetables and fruits, lower fats, no fast food or junk food) and regular exercise are extremely important in Diabetes prevention. Also, if you are overweight, losing weight helps prevent Type 2 Diabetes. If you have already developed Type 2 Diabetes, weight loss may be all you need to clower your blood sugar to normal levels.
Avatar n tn If you are predisposed to developing type 1 diabetes, no amount of exercise will change this. On the other hand, type 2 diabetes is linked with obesity, and exercise would definitely help with the prevention of that type. The hemoglobin A1C measures the average blood sugar level over a 3 month time period. This test is used by diabetics as a tool in keeping their blood glucose readings in control.
Avatar f tn (((hug))) I hope your second test turns out okay. I have a few suggestions for your diet...include very few simple carbs and lots of compex carbs...the complex carbs take longer to digest and are released more slowly into your system, giving your body more time to regulate your glucose levels. As for exercise, have you tried exercising in the water? Does movement while sitting hurt also?
Avatar n tn There are some self practice videos on google videos. Just go to google and type ramdev and you would see two videos that teach yoga and pranayam by his holiness swami ramdev. Best of luck.
Avatar m tn //preview.tinyurl.com/diabetes-prevention-help-tips Take the time to educate yourself on diabetes and diabetes prevention. At this time you do not need medication but eventually will if you continue with your current lifestyle. Make the necessary adjustments now before it's too late.
Avatar f tn We have a seperate forum for Diabetes type 2 and Diabetes prevention. Type 1 Diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas are destroyed, leading to high glucose levels in the blood and resulting in impaired metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It's sometimes referred to as insulin dependent diabetes.
Avatar f tn Has anybody else had to go try to make their baby turn? And what was your outcome? I have heard its painful then I heard it isn't bad. And also who has gestational diabetes and how do you handle it? What should I expect when I go into labor I am 30 weeks now.
Avatar n tn To help answer your question regarding predications on normal to prediabetes and/or prediabetes to diabetes use Google search to educate yourself on diabetes and diabetes prevention. A good place with lots of information is the ADA [American Diabetes Association] web site. Also, MedHelp has an prediabetes forum. If you look there you will see a thread on TIPS FOR DIABETES PREVENTION By nursegirl6572 Jul 01, 2012 Try reading it as the original link is provided too.
Avatar n tn a normal person does not get complications like going blind or loosing toes/feet/legs a normal person never has BG over 120 Joslin Diabetes Center says BG over 136 causes damage that leads to complications. So a lot of people restrict carbohydrates so there BG does not go over 140 some chose 120 some chose 180 (ADA limit).
Avatar n tn First off, congrats on stopping the beer guzzling and I'm glad you posted. Your glucose levels indicate you are pre-diabetic. If your fasting glucose level is 100 to 125 mg/dL, you have a form of pre-diabetes called impaired fasting glucose (IFG), meaning that you are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes but do not have it yet. A level of 126 mg/dL or above means that you have diabetes.
Business man2 This does not mean you can ignore lifestyle changes by going back to the bad habits which created your diabetes, it means you must adhere to a diabetic prevention lifestyle or it will return.
