Introduction to Diabetes and Types  

Studies have shown that India ranks second after China in the global diabetes epidemic, with 77 million people with diabetes. Of these, 12.1 million are aged >65 years, which is estimated to increase to 27.5 million in the year 2045. There are two most common types of diabetes: Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes

With Type 1 diabetes, the body stops producing insulin as the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas are destroyed. In this condition, a person must take insulin injections daily to regulate blood glucose levels.

Type 2 diabetes is a serious disease where your body may not respond to insulin, or the body makes insulin but not enough or does not use it well, and thus the sugar levels could go haywire. Thus, sugar steadily builds up in the blood, eventually leading to the blood vessels hardening, causing heart attacks, kidney failure, and stroke.

What are the risk factors for type 2 diabetes?

Risk factors that can increase diabetes include

obesity and a sedentary lifestyle,

uncontrolled blood glucose synthesis in the liver,

hereditary causes

Dysfunctional beta-cell in the pancreas

What are the symptoms of Type 2 diabetes?

You may have diabetes if you have

Blooded vision

Frequent urination

Increased hunger

Slowed healing of wounds, red, swollen, tender gums, and

Tingling hands and feet. If you experience such symptoms, consult your doctor immediately.

What are the complications of Type 2 Diabetes?

Long-term untreated diabetes affects the nerve, kidneys, heart, and eyes.

Nerve damage: Diabetes damages the nerves in the legs and arms. These cause numbness, pain, and tingling that start with the fingers and toes and spread along the legs. If this is left untreated, a person can lose all sense of feeling. Diabetic neuropathy is a family of progressive nerve disorders.

Kidney damage: Long-term uncontrolled blood sugar leads to kidney failure that requires dialysis or a kidney transplant.

Heart and blood vessels: For people with diabetes, who have high blood glucose cause blood vessels in the body to become damaged; when this happens, plaque can form in the blood vessels, making it difficult for the blood to flow.

Eye damage: Diabetes, if left untreated, can damage the retina of the eyes, which may lead to blindness.

Nutrients and vitamins:

Diabetic patients tend to have less nutrient absorption for vitamins like Vit C, D3, calcium, and Vit, herbs. Defective insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity cause metabolic disorders.

Ayurvedic Approach for Type 2 Diabetes

In Ayurveda, diabetes is described as ‘Madhumeha’. Diabetes mellitus is described as Vaat Pramehaand Diabetes insipidus is described as Kaph Prameha

According to Ayurveda, imbalances of kaph dosh, pitt dosh together with vaat dosh are the main cause of Madumeha. Vaat, kaph, and Pitt block the pathways connected to the mamsa (muscle) and meda (fat) tissues.

Eating too much, not exercising, being overweight—all these factors aggravate the vaat dosh of the body, where the body does not make enough insulin or does not use it well, and that leads to diabetes.

Ayurveda suggests Jamun and its seeds are highly effective herbs against diabetes. Known as jamboline and jambosine, the fruit seeds slow down the release of sugar into the bloodstream and increase insulin levels. Diabetes symptoms such as frequent urination and thrusting can be reduced with it since it converts starch into energy. In addition to reducing serum glucose levels and insulin resistance, the herb also reduces dyslipidemia and enhances the function of B cells. As a result, the herb rejuvenates the pancreatic cells at the cellular level.

What is the Treatment for Type 2 Diabetes?

Treatment of type 2 diabetes focus on the combination of diet and lifestyle changes along with medicines.

Lifestyle changes: Yoga has shown to be a great option in the treatment of diabetes. Regularly practising yoga can help to control blood sugar and increase insulin sensitivity in the cells. In addition to helping reduce blood sugar, yoga benefits by reducing stress levels and reducing the risk of heart problems by protecting cardiac health. Regular yoga helps to improve nerve function and boost metabolism, thereby improving nerve health.

Diet changes: It is recommended to consume low-fat foods, avoid any dairy-based products, and incorporate certain foods, such as bitter ground, Bengal gram, and fenugreek seeds, to control blood sugar.

Blood sugar monitoring:  Regular blood sugar monitoring is beneficial in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Medication:

Although it is now one of the most common yet challenging health issues that people face, a rooted approach plus modern technology provide Meta medicine in the form of DiabGavyam, which is effective and consists of some of the best herbs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

DiabGavyam activates the pancreas, stimulates the secretion of a balanced amount of insulin, and regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates. The formulation is blended with the herbs Jamun Beej, and Madhunashak that protect the nerve cells in the retina, thus fortifying the blood vessel, and promoting blood circulation, thus lowering the chance of diabetic retinopathy.

While medicine helps in the control of blood sugar; it does not have any side effects after taking a tablet. You can take 1 or 2 tablets twice a day or as directed by your physician.

Intermediate Kitchen Witchcraft: Nutrition

The ideas of nutrition and healthy eating have been corrupted by the diet industry. Auntie says fuck that. Think of nutrition as a matter of nutrients. Don’t take, don’t deprive. Add to your body! 

For intermediate witchcraft, think of things as macronutrients (big) and micronutrients (small). A macronutrient is what your body uses the most of, while a micronutrient is what your body uses a smaller amount of. 

Macronutrients are: protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Your body needs all three of them - yes, even fat and carbs. Fuck what the diet industry told you and listen to Auntie: it is not only ok to eat fat and carbs, it is actively a good thing. 

Micronutrients are: vitamins and minerals. Your body is a gloriously complex, divine structure that requires a steady supply of the Earth’s bounty to thrive. You can use these amazing things She has given us to improve your body and your mind. Use what She gives you!

Let’s take a look at some common magical ingredients and the micronutrients they give you! This will help provide you with a greater understanding of how to use them to craft your kitchen spells. Magical properties are purple, practical are pink.

Cinnamon: Healing, protection, warmth, love, prosperity. Vitamins A, B, C, K; calcium; magnesium; potassium; phosphorus. Useful in lowering blood pressure, high in antioxidants, can improve insulin sensitivity, protects against heart disease, powerful anti-inflammatory. Connect the practical value to the magical value. What do you think corresponds? The one that jumps out to me is love corresponding to heart health.

Lemons: Purification, cleansing, joy. Extremely high in Vitamin C; fiber; B6; potassium. Lowers your risk of kidney stones, antiseptic properties, big immune booster. Once again, compare the practical and magical uses. I see vitamin B6 connecting to joy - B vitamins are known to improve stress responses.

Arugula: Attraction, abundance, sex magic, psychic powers. Potassium, calcium, folate; vitamins B, C, D, K, and A. Calcium & vitamin D work together for bone health; eye health; high in antioxidants; improves iron absorption; contains many elements shown to reduce cancer risks. I see a connection in iron absorption and sex magic.

Now, while these are a very direct nutrient-to-association correlation, we do also need to remember that there are other factors. Taste is a huge factor in kitchen magic! Cinnamon associates to a warm disposition; cinnamon is a hot food. Lemons are a sunny food. Arugula is easy to grow, therefore it is abundant.

Please Help A Homeless Family?

So today, one of the local libraries put on a homeless outreach faire. My son finally got his coronavirus booster, I got to take a shower (a HOT shower with fresh towels, too) for the first time in almost two weeks, and we talked to people wo gave us resources for housing, food and the like. So progress to become homed again is being made.

However, I need to raise money for three things that the organizations aren't able to help with right now:

Gas money. I need at least $40 by tomorrow to fill up the tank since we have to make another trip from Encinitas to Fallbrook, because my computer is at a repair shop in Fallbrook.

$25 to finish paying for the repairs to my laptop. I ended up needing $50 after I bought my mom needles for her insulin pens but I got it covered!

Food money. We have $3 left on our food stamps card and if we get more it won't be for another week. We buy ramen, bulk croissants and microwave dinners to eat throughout the day. Anything to get them would be a huge help.

If anyone can help, my PayPal link is below. Mostly I'm needing the gas money and the $25 for my laptop by tomorrow; food can wait a day or so.

Every time I start cutting carbs to get my blood sugar in order and I begin exhibiting just every negative symptom possible, I imagine going to see famed House MD and the nurses are like "his a1c is out of control, he needs insulin boosters!" and House hobbles over going "no, he needs hyperglycemia to live!!!!" and jabs me with a syringe of orange vanilla coke

[aliciachimera]

what do i feel right now.. scared, unnerved, uncertain?

i know i needed to get my physical exam done a few days ago, but it, hurt my self-esteem to be shown the flaws of my own health management laid bare in charts and graphs. doing my best, isn't enough when certain things are too high and certain things are too low. i received my covid booster shot, and its been making me feel dreadful the past few days, making me wish the side effects would subside sooner rather than later. admittedly, as much as it sucks shit, these symptoms are far better than Actually being sick.

i'm.. struggling mentally, emotionally. the doctor's appointment was a good wake up call to get myself back to my daily walks, but i still feel so stressed out at home that i almost feel myself wanting to cry out of frustration and exhaustion. i miss the good times i had with my family, those picturesque moments where things felt alright and i didn't feel estranged and alone..

if it weren't for ensuring i have a reliable supply of insulin, i'd have moved out by now. but i need to make sure i have my medicine, i'd prefer being financially stable before making a big leap, and i just, don't want to be forced to come back here when there's no more room for me anymore.

i really wish i could fall apart, cry into a hug.

Did you know that consuming a small amount of dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa) daily can help improve blood flow and lower blood pressure in people with mild hypertension?

Here's why:

Flavonoids: Dark chocolate contains flavonoids, which are a type of antioxidant that can help improve blood vessel function and reduce blood pressure.

Nitric Oxide: Dark chocolate contains nitric oxide, which helps to relax blood vessels and improve blood flow.

Vasodilation: The flavonoids and nitric oxide in dark chocolate can help to dilate blood vessels, which can improve blood flow and reduce blood pressure.

Lower Blood Pressure: Studies have shown that consuming a small amount of dark chocolate daily can help lower blood pressure in people with mild hypertension.

Improved Cardiovascular Health: The antioxidants and flavonoids in dark chocolate may also help to improve cardiovascular health by reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions.

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of risk factors that increase the probability that someone will develop heart disease or diabetes. It is sometimes referred to as Syndrome X. Generally it includes high blood pressure, excess weight around the middle or central obesity (usually described as an apple-shaped body), and insulin resistance or the inability of the body to use insulin effectively. In a study published in the British Medical Journal, Australian researchers concluded that daily consumption of dark chocolate can reduce cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes, in people with metabolic syndrome.

Other facts:

The darker the chocolate, the more antioxidants it contains.

Dark chocolate is considered a "functional food" because it has potential health benefits beyond just providing nutrients.

Cocoa is a natural mood booster due to the presence of phenylethylamine, a compound that is similar to the neurotransmitter serotonin.

The researchers emphasized that these protective effects have only been shown for dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa), rather than for milk or white chocolate, probably due to the higher levels of flavonoids found in dark chocolate. They also suggested that milk proteins in lighter chocolate may inhibit the absorption of flavonoids.

Top 10 Health Benefits of Coffee: Why Your Daily Cup is Good for You :

Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world, enjoyed by millions of people every day. But beyond its rich aroma and delicious taste, coffee offers a range of health benefits that make it more than just a morning ritual. Here’s a detailed look at the top 10 health benefits of coffee and why your daily cup might be doing more for you than you think.

Boosts Energy Levels Caffeine Power: The most well-known benefit of coffee is its ability to boost energy levels. Coffee contains caffeine, a natural stimulant that increases dopamine levels in the brain, helping you feel more awake and alert. This boost is especially useful in the morning or during mid-afternoon slumps, helping you stay focused and productive throughout the day.

Improves Cognitive Function Sharper Mind: Coffee has been shown to enhance various cognitive functions, including memory, mood, reaction times, and general mental function. The caffeine in coffee blocks adenosine, an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, leading to increased neural activity. This makes coffee a powerful tool for keeping your brain sharp and focused.

Supports Heart Health Cardiovascular Benefits: Moderate coffee consumption has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease and stroke. The antioxidants in coffee help reduce inflammation and improve heart function, while caffeine can enhance circulation. Studies suggest that drinking 3-5 cups of coffee per day may reduce the risk of heart disease by 15%, making it a heart-friendly choice when consumed responsibly.

Aids in Weight Management Metabolism Booster: Coffee can help with weight management by boosting your metabolism and increasing fat burning. Caffeine stimulates thermogenesis, the process by which your body generates heat and burns calories. This effect can help you burn more fat, particularly during exercise, making coffee a useful addition to your weight loss or maintenance plan.

Lowers the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Blood Sugar Regulation: Research has shown that regular coffee drinkers have a significantly lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Coffee contains compounds like chlorogenic acid, which can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels. This protective effect is seen with both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, making it a beneficial beverage choice for those concerned about diabetes.

Protects Against Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Health: Coffee consumption is associated with a lower risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The antioxidants in coffee, along with its ability to increase neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine, help protect brain cells from damage. Regular coffee drinkers may reduce their risk of developing these conditions by up to 65%, supporting long-term brain health.

Enhances Physical Performance Exercise Boost: Caffeine is a well-known performance enhancer, often used by athletes to improve endurance and strength. Drinking coffee before a workout can increase adrenaline levels, which prepares your body for intense physical activity. It also mobilizes fatty acids from fat tissues, making them available for energy use. This can lead to better performance, longer workouts, and improved results.

Provides Essential Nutrients Nutrient-Rich: Coffee is a good source of several essential nutrients, including riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), and pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). It also contains manganese and potassium, which are important for various bodily functions. While these nutrients are present in small amounts, regular coffee consumption can contribute to your overall nutrient intake.

Reduces the Risk of Certain Cancers Cancer Protection: Coffee has been linked to a reduced risk of several types of cancer, including liver and colorectal cancer. The antioxidants in coffee help protect cells from damage and reduce inflammation, which are key factors in cancer prevention. Studies have shown that regular coffee drinkers may reduce their risk of liver cancer by up to 40% and colorectal cancer by 15%.

Promotes Longevity Longer Life: Given its protective effects against several diseases, it’s no surprise that coffee is also associated with increased longevity. Studies have found that regular coffee drinkers have a lower risk of death from all causes, particularly from heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers. By incorporating coffee into your daily routine, you may be supporting a longer, healthier life. Conclusion Coffee is more than just a tasty beverage—it’s a health-promoting powerhouse. From boosting energy and cognitive function to protecting your heart and brain, coffee offers a wide range of benefits that make it a valuable addition to your diet. While it’s important to enjoy coffee in moderation, your daily cup can be a simple yet effective way to enhance your well-being and support a long, healthy life.

You are a lying scambot.

Get blocked and reported, and go to hell for trying to bilk kind and generous people out of what little money they have.

*****

Common scam tells: Blog as a whole has little activity, period - None before 2 days ago, all of which is reblog of popular tags and emotionally-charged causes; Appealing to minority identity (in and of itself not always bad or false - But just the way it's tossed so casually into the bio; Bio in this case tangentially mentions insulin, which is what the bot/scammer is trying to claim they're begging for, but in many cases, I've seen the bio expressly have the same begging ask, often with a header/profile image of a hospitalized person or someone definitely with a medical device of some sort;

The Big Tell - Randomly sending a begging ask to someone they've had no personal interaction with whatsoever prior to this point. Generally, even when people on this site are campaigning for their own legitimate crowdfunding stuff, they post it to their own timelines, and maybe put a bunch of relevant tags onto it. They might ask people they know, or who are known boosters of crowdfunding things to reblog it. What they don't do is barge into the asks of random strangers.

And if they are doing that? Even if they're "more-legit" seeming than an easily spotted fake - Still don't fucking trust them. Be incredibly suspicious of anyone you don't personally have a long-established relationship with hitting you up for money. Even if you do have that relationship -

Still be suspicious.

One, they could have had their accounts compromised, if you want to believe the best in your internet friend.

Two, pig-butchering doesn't necessarily have to be someone looking for a greedy, naive dipshit to fall for a fake crypto scam after being buttered-up and having their egos flattered. If the angle of "But don't you see, I'm your friend? Won't you help me with this condition?" works better on you, personally, than the former, they'd absolutely try that instead/too.

Three, even if they are who they say they are on the surface, and not just someone trapped in a fraud-factory overseas, forced to try and catfish and scam people, there's always the possibility that they are, just a plain-old, homegrown scammer.

Trust *nothing* and *nobody* on the internet. Doubly so if you don't actually know who they are. Doubly-so if they contacted you out of the blue. Infinitely-more-so if there's any sort of monetary ask involved.
