Factors in Cure and Prevention of Diabetes


Cure and prevention of diabetes can best be accomplished by managing a few factors. Many drug companies are investing billions into finding a cure for this disease but in the meantime there are factors that each individual has under their own control to cure or prevent this chronic disease.
 
Diabetes is a disease where the body is not able to metabolize the glucose in the blood. Type 1 diabetes is caused by the destruction of Beta islet cells in the pancreas which secretes insulin. People with Type 1 diabetes need to be on insulin at all times. Type 2 diabetes is cause by the destruction of insulin receptors on cell surfaces which causes the cells to be resistant to insulin. Type 2 diabetes can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes.  
Changes in living conditions or lifestyle changes can significantly reduce symptoms and keep blood sugar levels at a healthy level and this can be accomplished by managing a few factors.   The first factor is diet and managing your diet does play a major role in controlling symptoms of diabetes. Diets for diabetics should be rich in fibers, small amounts of carbohydrates or fats and low in proteins.
Foods should also be rich in vitamins, minerals, as well as antioxidants and other factors that boost the immune system. These foods include leafy greens, apples, nuts, whole meal breads and dairy products.   Also fresh fruits are good sources of carbohydrates.   The next factor to control is weight. Being overweight contributes to many complications related to diabetes. 
The best way to control weight is to exercise at least 3 times a week and exercise is considered a natural cure for many problems or diseases of the body. The current epidemic of obesity is directly connected to the rise in Type 2 diabetes and the rise in diabetes in children. Many researchers believe that this epidemic is caused by our cultures sedentary lifestyle.  
The management of stress is another very important area that needs to be under control, whether it is emotional, physical or mental stress. This is not only a diabetic natural cure but also cures many other diseases such as high blood pressure and heart diseases. 
Stress can be managed by exercise, prayer, yoga or medication.   Smoking has an effect on ever bodily function as well as symptoms of diabetes. Becoming a non-smoker is extremely important. Smoking also interferes with medications and other therapy for diabetes. Stopping smoking is a major lifestyle change that is good for diabetes as well as all other diseases of the body.   Cure and prevention of diabetes can best be accomplished by managing a few factors. These factors include diet, weight control, stress and smoking.
