Diabetes

According to Dr Oz in his book “You-Staying Young” he proposes “that if you go to the bathroom more than 12 times/day or more than 3 times in a 3 hour period, you should get your urine tested for sugar”.

There are 2 types of diabetes, Type 1 is usually found in children and Type 2 (adult-onset) is the more common form and affects some 23 million Americans.

In Type 1 the pancreas does not make insulin because there is some auto-immune problem with the body’s insulin producing cells.

In Type 2 your cells block the insulin and causes the sugar to circulate in the blood as opposed to fueling your cells.

Type 1 diabetics take injections of Insulin to provide the needed amount.

Type 2 diabetics may be diet controlled or take medicine as needed to control the problem.

Diabetes can have serious and life changing effects on our bodies, left untreated.
