Every year, 14 November is commemorated as Diabetes Day, in commemoration of the birth anniversary of Fredrick Bantip, who discovered insulin in 1921 and provided treatment for millions of people.
Diabetes; Diabetes is colloquially defined as diabetes mellitus, as the blood sugar level
increases as a result of decreased or no secretion of the insulin hormone
as a result of β cell destruction in the islets of Langerhans in our pancreas.
The mechanism of action of insulin is the liver, muscle and It affects 3 main target tissues: fat tissue. It is to ensure that blood sugar reaches all tissues, especially the liver, muscle and brain, with the help of a carrier. After entering the tissues and organs as carrier + insulin, they are broken down (degraded). The carrier is always indestructible. The carrier part usually returns to the surface and is used again.
However, sometimes things may not work out... As a result of the body's high insulin production, more intense work
is initiated and the carriers, taking their share of this speed, are exposed to more disintegration. As a result, insulin will not be able to be transported into tissues and organs as the transporter decreases. Increasing insulin levels outside create the hyperinsulinemia – insulin resistance dilemma. As a result of the lack of sugar carriers in the blood, the amount of sugar in the blood increases as it cannot be transported by insulin, which leads to hyperglycemia. As a result, it invites these diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, gout and
and even Alzheimer's as a result of recent studies.
Foods that cause hyperinsulin; Pastries made from very starchy, white flour
especially sugary foods; cake, pastry, pastry, pastry, cake etc. , very fatty fried foods, consuming more
than necessary, not being able to maintain the balance of energy needs, constantly consuming ready-made and packaged products. Making these mistakes into habits will lead to type 2DM.
Inactivity, sedentary lifestyle, malnutrition and sleep problems. It increases
resistance. It has been reported that obesity and decreased physical activity lead to insulin resistance. Inactivity is more dangerous than the worst addiction. Increasing movement will reduce insulin resistance as it will reduce the breakdown of carriers
.
According to the latest research presented at the 6th national healthy life symposium;
Individuals between the ages of 15-19 constitute the most inactive group and only if physical activity increases in our country.
It is expected that there will be a decrease in deaths from chronic diseases:
9.3% in CVD
11.5% in colon cancer
15% in breast cancer
16.6% in type 2 diabetes.
br /> If we examine the creation of our body, our entire muscle and bone structure shows us that we are not inactive
but, on the contrary, we are built on movement and exercise. Remember, exercise is a necessity for our body
and a medicine for our health.
