Blood sugar control goals: Fasting 4.4-6.1mmol/L, non-fasting 4.4-8.0mmol/L. The monitoring of blood glucose can be determined according to the actual needs of the disease.

The role of brisk walking, jogging, cycling, and other aerobic exercises in controlling blood sugar has long been recognized by everyone. With the deepening of research on strength training, more and more scholars have realized its multi-faceted benefits for diabetic patients and compared it with the effects of aerobic exercise . A comprehensive study of many years has found that strength training can reduce the glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of diabetic patients by about 0.6%, and a series of studies in the United Kingdom have confirmed that for every 1% drop in HbA1c, diabetes-related mortality can be reduced by 21%; the incidence of myocardial infarction It will drop by 14%; the incidence of stroke will drop by 12%; the incidence of microvascular disease will drop by 37%; the rate of cataract extraction will drop by 19%; the amputation or mortality caused by the peripheral vascular disease will drop by 43%; the incidence of heart failure will drop by 16%.

Obesity hypertension | Why does diabetes cause high blood pressure(3)

What is the harm of diabetes and hypertension? Diabetes and hypertension are very harmful to the body.

Obesity hypertension | Why does diabetes cause high blood pressure(2)

Therefore, most patients do not need to make detailed identification if there are no other clinical abnormalities. In patients with type 2 diabetes who have proteinuria, hypertension can be renal, or it can be present before most patients develop kidney disease. Kidney disease is the cause of the further deterioration of high blood pressure. According to clinical symptoms, hypertension caused by other causes should be further identified. 1.

Obesity hypertension | Why does diabetes cause high blood pressure(1)

Factors that cause high blood pressure due to diabetes: In type 2 diabetes, the mechanism of hypertension is related to sodium retention and increased vascular resistance. If hypertension occurs before diabetes, it is mostly essential hypertension; if hypertension occurs during the course of diabetes, there are 3 possibilities: essential hypertension, systolic hypertension caused by atherosclerosis, Renal hypertension caused by diabetic nephropathy. In type 1 diabetes, hypertension is mostly renal hypertension caused by diabetic nephropathy. Water and sodium retention is the main mechanism, which often occurs immediately after microalbuminuria. The mechanism of diabetes complicated with hypertension is still not fully understood. Hyperglycemia itself inhibits vascular endothelial relaxation, increases intracellular free calcium, and stimulates the transcription of growth factor genes that act on vascular smooth muscle. Also, the following factors are involved in the pathogenesis of hyp

Obesity hypertension | 6 major symptoms of hypertension and diabetes

Diabetes | Let you understand the common sense of diabetes

1. Not all people with type 2 diabetes are obese. Experts say people who are neither overweight nor obese can develop diabetes. Excess body fat can lead to insulin resistance and accelerate the progression of type 2 diabetes. But about 20 percent of obese people do not have diabetes, and 15 percent of people with type 2 diabetes are of normal weight. Therefore, thin people should not ignore diabetes screening. 2. Diabetes risk increases with age, but health changes are always beneficial. After middle age, the risk of diabetes increases year by year. Most new cases of type 2 diabetes are between 45 and 64 years old. However, the onset age of diabetes is getting younger, with 370,000 people in the United States aged 20 to 44 diagnosed with the disease in 2012.

However, positive lifestyle changes at any age can significantly reduce the risk of diabetes.

Diabetes | Health knowledge of diabetes

Diabetes | Why do people get diabetes? What kind of person gets diabetes easily?

And diabetes is like Pandora's box with more than 100 complications...Can lead to blindness, foot disability, kidney failure, and other serious consequences. You may be wondering:  A good person, how to get diabetes? It starts with blood sugar:  Cells, like humans, love a sweet bite, and sugar is their source of strength: And our intestines and stomach, like a sugar factory, turn all the raw materials we eat into glucose.  Glucose enters your blood vessels, becomes blood sugar, and begins to pass through your world. At the same time, 60 trillion starving cells, smelling the food, began ordering frantically: A group of delivery boys, calling, door-to-door delivery: These takeout guys are insulin: Without them, the cells starve: The excess blood sugar is sent to the liver by insulin and stored temporarily: When the liver has no place, blood sugar will be beaten by liver cells, turning into fat and kicking out the door: Insulin works very hard, never runs out of time, never loses the

Diabetes | Eat candy to be able to get diabetes more?causes of diabetes?

There are two types of urine disease, and we always talk about type 2 diabetes. At present, there are mainly several predisposing factors of type 2 diabetes: 1. Genetic factors. A lot of people think that type 1 diabetes is hereditary, but actually, type 2 diabetes is more heritable. People with a family history of diabetes need to take extra care. 2. Obesity. Obesity is a major single risk factor for diabetes and is associated with the distribution of body fat. Central obesity, also known as large bellies, is most associated with diabetes. And the correlation was stronger for men than for women. In other words, men with larger waistlines and larger bellies are the most dangerous signs of diabetes. 3. High-fat diet. There's a lot of research on this, and it's basically clear that high fat intake, especially high saturated fat intake, significantly increases the risk of diabetes. 4. Move less. Exercise is a great way to increase insulin sensitivity, which is to make insulin less

Diabetes|Foot care for diabetics

One of the problems with diabetes is that when there is a wound on the body, it doesn't heal easily. If this wound occurs on the foot and is not treated in time, the wound becomes infected or expands, it is diabetic foot. In most cases, diabetic foot is formed in this way. Of course, there are other conditions, such as toe vascular embolism, which are relatively easy to find due to the severity of the disease. What happens if diabetic foot forms and is not treated effectively? The obvious thing to think about is amputation, making life difficult. In fact, due to the patient makes every effort to save the limb, long-term deferment not infected necrotic tissue constantly release toxins, seriously affecting the heart, liver and kidney function, leading to these organs function failure, such as urine protein increased, insufficient liver albumin synthesis and cardiac function, and sudden death, such as can not get proper treatment, patients can survive an average of about 2 years.

Diabetes prevention is better than cure!

November 14 is the United Nations Diabetes Day. This year's theme is "Diabetes Education and Prevention" and the slogan is "Protecting our future".Diabetes is a recognized enemy of health. Long-term hyperglycemia will damage multiple organs throughout the body, leading to dysfunction or failure, such as myocardial infarction (coronary heart disease), stroke, blindness, renal failure, etc. At present, our country has become the country with the largest number of diabetes patients in the world, with the total number of patients approaching 100 million and the prevalence rate as high as 9.7%. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of diabetes are of great urgency. People with pre-diabetes - not to be ignored. Looking at the course of disease development of patients with diabetes, to improve the quality of life and longer life expectancy, the significance of diabetes prevention is far more than treatment. Nearly 100 million people in other countries have been diagn
