Quote of the Day

"If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it."

General facts about Type II diabetes
 

Over 18 million Americans are suffering of type I diabetes or type II diabetes. Other 4-5 million don't even know they have the disease. It's a concerning 6% of the U.S. population. Although it's not a fatal disease, diabetes is the sixth cause of death in the United States. 90 to 95% of those people have type II diabetes.

Type I diabetes and type II diabetes is a group of diseases that share a common characteristic: high levels of blood glucose and it happens when the body cannot produce enough insulin or when the insulin produced by the pancreas is not working properly

The type II diabetes is used to be called "non-insulin-dependent diabetes" or aging diabetes. This is because the risks of having type II diabetes are bigger and bigger as you are getting older, but it usually develops after the age of 40. Type II diabetes is the most common type of diabetes and it differs from type I diabetes in that the body produces insulin, but not enough; also, the body can't use that insulin efficiently. Although, the most affected by the type II diabetes are old people, in the late 90` the rate has been increased among young people. Doctors and experts are now trying to determine why is this happening and have now decided that with an increased number of obesity cases you have an increased type II diabetes cases.

There are some certain risks factors for the type II diabetes. These include overweight, unhealthy diet, sedentary lifestyle, aging and other. Seems that overweight is the biggest risk factor for the type II diabetes because 80% of those ill are suffering of obesity. However, you can prevent type II diabetes by having daily physical exercise, healthy diet. To know if you have a predilection for the type II diabetes is even better to have glucose testing.
