Nutrition and Type 2 Diabetes Etiology and Prevention

Nutrition and Type 2 Diabetes Etiology and Prevention

Over the past two decades type 2 diabetes has emerged as a leading threat to global health and the considerable overlap in obesity and diabetes trends are likely no coincidence. While the underpinnings for both etiologies are linked to lifestyles particularly dietary and physical activity patterns determining optimal approaches for preventing and managing type 2 diabetes using dietary composition remains a challenge. Nutrition and Type 2 Diabetes: Etiology and Prevention rigorously examines various perspectives on diet and type 2 diabetes. The book presents a comprehensive description and evaluation of the central research to date primarily in humans on the macronutrients and their subclasses micronutrients foods beverages and overall dietary patterns with respect to the risk of type 2 diabetes. It addresses the mediating/mechanistic role of obesity and body composition throughout the text where appropriate. The chapter authors all leading researchers in the field discuss fundamental nutritional principles applied to the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes as well as applied behavioral studies on nutrition and diabetes for each subject area. The depth and breadth of this book includes aspects of the food synergy model for understanding the complicated pathways between nutrition dietary habits and risk for type 2 diabetes. It also examines the effects of artificially sweetened beverages and coffee. This reference provides a review of the science on the potential impact of many components of dietary behavior and nutritional properties on etiology and risk for this disease knowledge that is essential for formulating informed approaches to public health progress in this area. | Nutrition and Type 2 Diabetes Etiology and Prevention

Suresign Diabetes Screening Urine Glucose Test Strips - 3 Pack

Suresign Diabetes Screening Urine Glucose Test Strips - 3 Pack

Suresign Diabetes Screening Urine Glucose Test Strips - 3 Pack The Suresign Diabetes Screening Urine Glucose Test For the detection of Diabetes in patients elevated levels of glucose in the urine is a classic indicator. In the diabetic state when blood sugar (glucose) levels are high excess glucose is secreted into urine by the kidneys. Suresign Diabetes screening test strips are a rapid convenient and cost-effective method for the indirect measurement of blood sugar levels to assist in the diagnosis and management of diabetes. Contains 3 test strips Colour reference card for accurate reading Easy To Use Results In Minutes What is diabetes? Diabetes is a significant chronic health condition, with 4.3 million officially diagnosed cases in the UK, and an estimated 5 million people living with diabetes, when undiagnosed cases are included. Of these, Type 2 diabetes is the most common form, accounting for over 90% of all adult cases. While the disease predominantly affects people over the age of 40, an estimated 148,000 younger people also have the condition. Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the way that the human body metabolites glucose, arising from insulin resistance. As the disease progresses, the body’s cells become resistant to the effects of insulin, which means that more insulin is needed to help glucose enter the cells. There are various causes of the disease, including pancreatic dysfunction, lifestyle factors such as obesity or poor diet, and family history. Unlike Type 1 diabetes, in which the body does not produce insulin, people with Type 2 diabetes do produce insulin, but the body does not use it effectively. Type 2 diabetes can often be managed through lifestyle changes, e.g. by avoiding excessively sugary food. However, people with Type 1 diabetes usually require a daily insulin injection, combined with regular testing.

Integrating Lifestyle Medicine for Prediabetes Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiometabolic Disease

Integrating Lifestyle Medicine for Prediabetes Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiometabolic Disease

Lifestyle change is universally recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiometabolic disease yet the majority of clinical practice educational programs and clinical trials within these chronic disease spaces focus on medication use and procedures with insufficient emphasis on lifestyle medicine. The concept of lifestyle medicine can serve as a countermeasure acting through aspects of personal choice natural and built environments cultural traditions and socioeconomic influences that affect the metabolic health of an individual. Integrating Lifestyle Medicine for Prediabetes Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiometabolic Disease provides clinical evidence for and a mechanistic understanding of the six pillars of lifestyle medicine. It guides the reader to identify opportunities for early intervention rather than focus on the diagnosis and treatment of the established disease. Interventions at earlier points have the potential to mitigate progression prevent complications reduce costs and improve a patient’s overall health at all points in their lifetime. Key Features Provides mechanistic epidemiological and clinical understanding of all pillars of lifestyle medicine Presents information on mechanisms for lifestyle medicine in cardiometabolic disease Features a unique model that includes recognition of predisease and even pre-predisease with rationale for intervention Promotes evidence-based recommendations for all stages of cardiometabolic disease This volume in the Lifestyle Medicine series is an essential resource for clinicians and students providing them with information to help them to prevent complications reduce costs and improve a patient’s overall health at all points in their lifetime.

Nutrition and Diabetes Pathophysiology and Management

Nutrition and Diabetes Pathophysiology and Management

Diabetes occurs at such an alarming rate that it can be described as a global epidemic. Following its predecessor Nutrition and Diabetes: Pathophysiology and Management Second Edition is a comprehensive resource that describes various factors that drive the accumulation of excess body weight and fat resulting in obesity. The book discusses the metabolic aberrations found in obesity and how they lead to the association of obesity with diabetes. This new edition highlights the role played by diet and the interrelationships in the metabolism of key nutrients in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes which provides the scientific basis for treatment and management approaches. FeaturesHighlights the role of nutrition in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes Organized logically into two easy-to-use sections - Pathophysiology and Management of Obesity and Pathophysiology and Treatment of DiabetesFeatures emerging therapeutic approaches for management of obesity and diabetesDiscusses experience in the management of obesity and diabetes in developing countries Presents challenges in insulin therapy and provides guidelines to overcome themThe first section of the book retains key topics from the previous edition and contains new chapters including genetic determinants of nutrient processing; fat distribution and diabetes mellitus; combined effect of diet and physical activity in the management of obesity; pharmacologic treatment of obesity; and the role of gut microbiota in the pathogenesis and treatment of obesity. The second section features updated versions of most of the other chapters in the first edition comprising a modified chapter on oxidative stress and the effects of dietary supplements on glycemic control in Type 2 diabetes. In addition new chapters are added in this section and include the contribution of iron and transition metal micronutrients to diabetes; role of microbiota in the pathogenesis and treatment of diabetes; primary prevention of Type 2 diabetes; and the pathophysiology and management of Type 1 diabetes. | Nutrition and Diabetes Pathophysiology and Management
