Diabetes
It Is a chronic illness it affects all our system and make them week
It Is a chronic illness it affects all our system and make them week
In this
disease affected person's pancrease does not make enough insulin.
So what
is inside a human body??
A human
body consists of different organs and organ system that function toether to keep us alive and healthy
e.g. brain and nervous system, Eyes, Heart and blood vessels system,. Lungs and
respiratory system, kidneys and
genitourinary system , liver , gall bladder, pancrease and gastro intesinal
system .To function thees organs and
systems properly our body needs a fuel in the form of glucose.
So from
where we get this fuel glucose??
Glucose
comes from food we eat. All eaten food is broken in to smaller units inside our
intestine or food pipe. we call it
glucose and this glucose is absobed inside our blood vesels system and through
this system this glucose is taken to various organs like brain, eyes, heart
kidneys, Genitourinary system, skin , etc and provide them fule to function
just like your car needs petrol or similar things to function. But this is not
that easy. All thses organs have a lock system only when thses locks are opened
, glucose can enter inside these organs.
So where
is this key to open this lock system of different organs?
In our
body this key is kown as insulin . So what is insulin from where it come??
Insulin
is an life saver hormones produced by a gland in our body known as pancreas.
This gland is situated near our GIT system. This insulin picks all the glucose
present inside your blood vessels
system. And opens the doors of all the organs and delivers it to all the
mentioned organs inside our body and thus provides fuel to all thses organs in
the form of glucose. Or in other word this insulin helps our body to utilize
glucose for proper functioning of our organs.
So what
happens if this thing is not inside your body??
It is
similar to condition in your routine life for example you have ordered a food
item and you are not opening your doors that means your food item will not be
delivered to you and will be eventually wasted.and what about you?? You will
start getting sick because of startvation and eventually you will die!
Same
thing happens inside your body. Since there is no key or defective key(we will
discuss further) so they wont be able to open doors of your organs and glucose
will not be able to get inside your organs. So eventually your organs will
start falling sick ans sart functionning properly because of lack of fuel and eventually they
will stop functioning at all! .
So in
diabetic state because of lack of fuel or energy eventualy all our system
starts dysfunctioning Putting us at risk of various infections and various
organs diseases like heart disease(silent heart attack) and blood vessel disese(PAD), kidney(DKD) and nervous system disease (stroke and diabetic neuropathy)and eye(diabetic retinopathy
and skin diseses .
Both
affactions of nerves(diabetic neuropathy and vessels (diabetic microangiopathy
and PAD) will eventually lead to diabetic foot and amputation risk.
