Diabetes still a threat. In addition must undergo treatment for life, the patient also be a variety of diabetes complications. In fact, could culminate in death.
Healthy lifestyle is not now the important issues in daily life. Various health problems, ranging from light to heavy triggered by the behavior. One of them, the disease diabetes or diabetes.
Diabetes is considered a lifelong disease. That is, if someone has been declared positive, then treatment should be automatic as long as the rest of his life. Not to mention the danger of following that can arise due to high blood sugar in the body, start to stroke heart attack.
The latest studies, people with diabetes have a greater likelihood of leaving the world heart attack than people without diabetes.
“Patients with diabetes have a high risk of experiencing a higher mortality after heart attack compared to patients without diabetes,” said researchers from the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, dr Anna Norhammar and colleagues report in the Journal of Heart.
However, the data show a decrease in mortality in the past year between 1995-2002, from 16.6 percent to 12.1 percent of deaths in patients no diabetes. The decrease in diabetes from 29.7 percent to 19.7 percent.
Danger diabetes does not stop until there. This interference can even cause a variety of complications, one of kidney disease cause death.
“At the stadium information, will cause kidney disease complications in patients with type 1 diabetes. With such a progress is to prevent kidney disease in young patients,” said dr Emmanuel Villar, from ANZDATA Registry in Woodville, Australia, as quoted Reuters.
However, various negative impacts of diabetes are still not able to change the lifestyle community as one of the causes of disease emergence. until now one of the prevalence of disease or blood vessel metabolic is high enough.
In a data analyst for the World Health Organization, WHO, estimated in 2030 Indonesia ranks as the fourth country with melitus diabetics (DM). If in the year 2000 is estimated to have approximately 8.4 million people, then in 2030 will increase to 21.3 million people.
Meanwhile, household health survey (SKRT) 2001 find, DM prevalence among the population in Java and Bali aged 24-64 years reached 7.5 percent. The R & D Department of Health found that the prevalence of type 2 DM in the area of Depok, West Java, was 12.8 percent, and start down into 11.2 percent in 2003 after the intervention of the behavior.
Dr Samuel Oetoro, MS SpGK, nutrition specialist Nutrifit’s Clinic, said, the key high level of sugar in the blood is insulin. Pancreas that produce insulin as it should be derived or genetic factors and lifestyle is not healthy to be damaged. As a result, the pancreas can not function properly so that sugar in the blood vessel must be absorbed by the cells with the help of insulin stays in the blood.
“Because not be able to enter cells, loiter in the sugar and blood vessel out of the kidney or urine. So it is called diabetes,” said Samuel.
Damage to the pancreas can not produce insulin triggered by unhealthy lifestyle that traveled . who like to eat sweet food, such as sweet tea or soft drink that is the ongoing risk factors that spark the long term. Thus, the metabolic changes that occur will cause the free radicals that will damage the cells in the body slowly.
“However, free radical oxygen, which is a stand-alone, will not be free to move when the body’s immune system or immune system working properly. Only when the body’s immune down, free radicals will start working,” said Samuel.
