Diabetes mellitus is a disorder in which the pancreas fails to secrete sufficient insulin or the body's decreased ability to use insulin. Diabetes mellitus is Greek for 'a passing through of sweetness' which refers to the passing of sugar rich urine, a characteristic of the disease. It is a very serious disorder, sometimes fatal and is the leading cause of death in Western society because of its damage to the cardiovascular system.

In a healthy body food is digested to release glucose into the blood. This causes beta cells in the pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream. Insulin helps in the transportation of glucose from the blood to the liver and muscle cells. This can then be released later into the blood for metabolism. If the pancreas fails to produce sufficient amounts of insulin or if there is insulin resistance then diabetes will set in.

There are two types of diabetes, Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) also known as juvenile-onset diabetes, type 1 diabetes and Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) also known as maturity-onset diabetes, type 2 diabetes. Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to both forms of diabetes mellitus but the exact cause of diabetes mellitus is unknown. In both types, excess sugar in the blood known as hyperglycemia needs to be removed by the kidneys. Excessive thirst, frequent urination and hunger are the symptoms.

Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) also known as maturity-onset diabetes, type 2 because it typically occurs in obese people over 35 years of age, although some obese children have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes due to lack of exercise and poor diet. The clinical symptoms of NIDDM are mild, and the high glucose levels can be controlled by exercise, weight loss, diet and sometimes a drug like glyburide (DiaBeta) is used to stimulate the pancreatic beta cells to produce insulin. Some type 2 diabetics have sufficient amounts of insulin in the blood and diabetes happens not because of shortage of insulin but because cells become desensitized due to down-regulation of insulin receptors. Ketosis rarely develops in NIDDM.

Eating foods containing carbohydrates such as rice, potatoes, bread and cereals will raise blood sugar and insulin levels. This sugar raising effect of a food is called 'the glycaemic index' and it measure how quickly the carbohydrate is absorbed by the body. Individuals whose diet consists of a high amount of sugary foods and foods with high glycaemic index are more prone to develop type 2 diabetes. Those whose diet consists of a high amount of foods which have a low glycaemic index are at low risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Typical foods with a low glycaemic index are oats, fruit, beans and peas. To prevent or control type 2 diabetes it is best to avoid processed and snack foods which are typically high in sugar and eat high fibre whole foods such as oats, fruits, vegetables and seeds which have a low glycaemic index, regular exercise to reduce excess weight is also very important. Taking high fibre supplements such as psyllium, guar gum, oat bran, pectin, glucomannan and fenugreek seeds has shown to be beneficial to those suffering from type 2 diabetes. Stopping smoking and cutting down on alcohol will be beneficial to the diabetic.

The Power of Articlesaur Article Directory

The power of Articlesaur is its ability to gain exposure and promote its writers. At present, we have Forty-One general subjects covering a very wide range of subjects. This means that, as a writer, you are assured of finding a home for your articles. As a publisher, it means that you will find the material you are looking for.

The key to the process begins with quality writers and the volume and quality of article submissions that come in each day. This means that there is always fresh and original content to meet the needs of any publisher. This will in turn mean more publishers coming to Articlesaur.com to find their material and in turn greater exposure for the writers.

This is a win-win situation for both the publishers and the writers. For the writers, you will find that there is no cost to you to set up an account or to submit your articles. After creating an account, you will find that with each article you submit, your website will gain exposure and additional links to it. This will help you rank higher on any of the search engines.

You will also find that, since your name is attached to the article when it is published, you will become known as an expert in the subject you write on. This will translate into more business for your website and it will increase the amount of money you are able to make. When people see your name over and over they begin to look at you as an expert and someone they can trust. People will buy products and services more often from people they trust.

The power of this article directory is in what it can do for the writer in its ability to target your audience. This is because of the simple fact that the publishers that are looking at your articles are interested in what you have to say. They, in turn, provide an audience for your articles on their websites and newsletters and the people that read them are also people that are specifically looking for what you have to offer. This is something that you cannot get through any other medium.

With ads, you are never sure who is looking at them and how many simply go past them because they were not interested in what you are selling. If you write an article on a particular kind of dog and submit your article to Articlesaur.com it will be published by people interested in that type of dog. Then your article will be read by people that are interested in that type of dog. They will go to your website and look at your product or service and spend their hard-earned money with you.
