Whathappens inType 2Diabetes Much of the foodyou eat isbrokendown intoglucose.Glucose is the form of sugar in theblood and is themain source of energy for thebody. Glucoseneeds thehelp of ahormone called insulin to enter thebody cells.Normally thepancreas releases the right amount of insulinneeded to transferglucose fromyourblood toyour cells. InType 2diabetes,problems occurwhen the insulin that isproduced in thepancreasdoesn’twork correctly,not enough insulin ismade or thebody’s cells resist insulin. UNDERSTANDING TYPE 2 DIABETES

What IsType 2Diabetes? Type 2 diabetes or T2DM, once known as non-insulin- dependent or adult-onset diabetes, is a progressive metabolic disorder that affects how your body uses sugar (glucose) from food. Glucose is an important source of energy for the cells of your body and organs. If you have diabetes, itmeans you have toomuch glucose (sugar) in yourblood,which can lead to serioushealthproblems. T2DM isacomplexdiseasewithmultiple factors linked to its cause and development, but ismainly characterized by a reduction in insulin secretion from the pancreas alongwith the body’s inability to use insulin properly (a condition called insulin resistance) tokeepbloodglucose (bloodsugar) levels normal. Insulin is the hormone that is needed to transportglucose (sugar) from the foodyoueat toyour cells. Type 2 diabetes is the most common and increasingly widespread form ofdiabetes, and it is believed that genetic and environmental factors play a role in its development. Being overweight is strongly linked to the development of T2DM, but not everyone with T2DM is overweight. It is most often associated with older age, but is a growing problem among U.S. children and adolescents. Type 2 diabetes in youth can have a devastating effect on one’s kidneys andheart at ayoung age. Symptoms (Manypatientsmayhaveno symptoms) • Increased thirst • Initialweightgain followedbyweight loss •Fatigue •Frequenturination •Dry skin •Blurredvision •Tingling inhands and feet •Erectiledysfunction,vaginaldryness RiskFactors High riskpatientswithout symptoms shouldbe screened every 3yearsbeginning at age 45.Patientswith symptoms shouldbe screened as soon aspossible. T2DM risk factors include: •High-risk ethnicity:AfricanAmerican,Latino, NativeAmerican,AsianAmerican,Pacific Islander •Womenwhohadgestationaldiabetes (highblood sugar duringpregnancy), orwhohavehad ababyweighing 9pounds ormore atbirth •History ofprediabetes,prediabetes isblood sugar levels higher thannormal,butnotyethigh enough tobe diagnosed asdiabetes •History ofhighbloodpressure (hypertension) and/or •Obesity or overweight •Lack ofphysical activity •Parent or siblingwithT2DM
What is Type 1 Diabetes?
Complications
Diabetesmellitus type1or type1diabetes (T1DM),onceknownas insulin-dependentor juvenilediabetes isachronic metabolic disorder that prevents the body frommaking energy from food.Most people develop T1DMwhen they are children oryoung adults,but it can occur at any age. People with T1DM cannot produce the hormone insulin, because their immune system (the body’s system for fighting infection)attacksordestroys the insulin-producingbetacells in thepancreas.Without thebetacells, thebody can no longerproduce the insulin needed to help sugar (glucose) enter the cell to beused for energy and the sugar (glucose)buildsup in theblood.Highblood sugar levels can lead tomany long-termhealthproblems. Although theexact causeof type1diabetes isnotknown, it is thought that thedestructionof thepancreaticbeta cells by the immune system is triggered ingenetically susceptible individuals after exposure to a series ofviral illnesses.
Type 1DiabetesMellitus (T1DM) Peoplewith T1DM do not produce insulin because their immune system (the body’s system for fighting infection)attacksanddestroys the insulin-producingbetacells in thepancreas, leaving littleorno insulin.Without insulin, sugarbuildsup in theblood instead ofbeing transferred to the cells. The cause of T1DM is not known but it is thought to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors (exposure to certain viruses).T1DM accounts for about 5% ofdiagnoseddiabetes in theUnited States. It can appear at any age, butdevelopsmost often in children andyoung adults. Type 2DiabetesMellitus (T2DM) iswhen thepancreasdoesnotproduce enough insulin, or the body cannotuse insulin properly (a condition called insulin resistance).T2DM is themost common formofdiabetesandgeneticsand environmental triggers mayplayapart in itsdevelopment.The following factorsplayan important role in causing highblood sugarand insulin resistance in individualsgeneticallyprone to type 2diabetes: • Beta cells in thepancreas slowly stopproducing insulin. • Alpha cells in thepancreasproduce toomuchofahormone calledglucagon that stimulates the liver tomake sugarwhich thebody can’tuse and it’s released into theblood. • The liver fails to store sugar as an energy source. • Thekidney overproducesglucose and INCREASES absorption ofglucose into theblood. • Low insulin levels cause the fat cells tobreakdown and release “free fatty acids” (FFAs).FFAs cause the liver tomakemore sugar, destroy the insulinproducingbeta cells in thepancreas andblock themuscles fromusingglucose for energy. • Muscle cells areunable to absorb anduseglucose for energy.Unusedglucose stays in theblood, increasing sugar levels. • Eating releaseshormones that tell thepancreas toproduce/release insulin,prevent the liver frommaking sugar, slow thepassage of food thru the stomach and send the brain amessage to “feel full”. In T2DM, these hormones are impaired resulting inweight gain and reduced insulin levels. • As onegainsweight, appetite is increased causingmoreweightgain and adding to insulin resistance.
Diabetesmellitusordiabetes isagroupofdiseases thataffect thebody’s cellsability to convertanduse sugar (glucose) from food for energy. The result is toomuch sugar (glucose) in the blood.Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) candamageorgans suchas the eyes,kidneys,nerves,heartandbloodvessels, increasing riskof stroke andheart attacks. Patients with hypertension, high cholesterol, heart disease, a family history of diabetes, those who are overweight orHispanic orAfricanAmerican should be screened for diabetes beginning at age 45. Early diagnosis can slow theprogression of thedisease and lessen the risk of long term complications. Blood tests areused todiagnosediabetes.Alldiabetesblood tests involvedrawingblood and sending it to a lab for analysis.Yourhealth careprovidermayperform the following to test fordiabetes: •A1C blood test shows the average blood glucose levels over the past 3months, and is reported as a percentage, the higher the percentage, the higher your blood glucose levels have been.AnA1C test of greater than 6.5% is considered abnormal. •Fastingplasmaglucose test measuresbloodglucoseafter fasting forat least8hours.Fastingglucose levels above 126mg/dLare considered abnormal. • 2-HourOralGlucose test measuresbloodglucose levelsbefore and 2hours afterdrinking a special sweet liquid. 2-hourpostmealglucose levelsgreater than 200mg/dLare considered abnormal.

Hypoglycemia iswhenblood sugar fallsbelow70mg/dl.This is also known as an insulin reaction. Low blood sugar can be caused by eating too little, not eating often enough, by too much physical activity without eating, or toomuch insulin. Hypoglycemia candevelopquickly inpeoplewithdiabetes. Symptoms include: Hypoglycemia (low-blood sugar)

ThePancreas and Type 1Diabetes When you eat, your pancreas automatically makes the right amount of insulin to help glucose enter the cells. The cells in the pancreas that produce insulin are called beta cells. In type 1 diabetes, the body’s immune system sees the beta cells as a “potentialdanger“ anddestroys them.

ManagingType 2Diabetes People with T2DM can prevent or delay problems by keeping the levelofglucose (sugar) in thebloodas close to normal as possible (85-130 mg/dL), keeping blood pressure and cholesterol under control and by getting regular medical care. Although diabetes is a common disease, every individual needs personalized care. T2DM may be treated with a variety of different medications determinedby blood sugar levels and symptoms.Patients may be prescribed medicine to control cholesterol and blood pressure. Your diabetes healthcare provider will help you to maintain the correct balance between medications,blood sugarmonitoring,diet, and exercise.
High levelsofbloodglucosecandamage the glomeruli (the filtering units of the kidney),which can reduce thekidney’s ability to remove waste and retain importantnutrients such asprotein.
