Metabolism in systemic diseases

Essay on the effects of food on metabolism.

The evolutionary process of the human being and its longevity allow the body to develop a series of diseases that can produce harmful effects on the body and in this sense it is convenient to understand that the disease called "Diabetes" is either type 1 (which affects children and young people) and type 2 (which affects adults), has an effect of destruction of a section of the pancreas, which therefore stops producing a hormone necessary for digestion; This hormone is called insulin, and it allows the body to break down sugars.

When they cannot unfold, the body becomes intoxicated by containing excessive sugars in the blood, which cannot be consumed by the body.

The discovery of insulin occurred at the beginning of the twentieth century, in its second decade, and with it it was possible to preserve life for longer.

Later this disease was studied in more depth and it was concluded that a autoimmune effect produces the destruction of the islets of Langerhans, which produce the hormone insulin.

After these investigations it was observed that the production of insulin is not completely cut off and this led us to look for drugs that would help the pancreas to better metabolize the insulin that remains, and the metformin.

But already having the medications, it was necessary to reduce foods with sugars, but this does not exclusively contemplate the that contain sugar directly, but also corresponds to those that produce sugars when splitting (breads, pasta or products of flour).

It does not mean that they are not consumed, but if it is convenient to reduce them a little.

Diabetes produces ups and downs in the level of sugar in the body, so you should monitor glucose levels by means of a meter called a glucometer, and keep an accurate control of the pressure blood.

It has been discovered in the latest research that exercise also allows you to lead a better life, better control and increases glucose consumption, precisely by producing muscle movements.

The most important care should be kidney and liver care, as they are the first to be damaged, because they are the body's filters.

If the diet is balanced, sufficient and in shorter periods, the body can react in a better way that will allow a better metabolization of any sugar that is consumed.
