Danger of Diabetes Complication

Disease that Thai people should seriously focus on now is “diabetes” according to static result shows that, one-eleventh people found having the disease calculated as 9.8% of the Thai population. As a result, Endocrinologist and Metabolic Therapist,Dr. Rattaphong jiwarangsinee has explained as follows.
In general, our body has its own mechanism process, to regulate blood sugar level, the insulin released from the pancreas is the main part where the sugar is sent to muscles, tissue and liver. It also blocks the liver from producing the sugar. For that reason, if the level of insulin is insufficient the blood glucose will arise or if it cannot function properly, the body ,therefore, is leaded to Insulin Resistance causing high blood sugar within the body.
<h2 style="color: #008080;">90% of Diabetic Patients in Thailand Have (Type 2) Diabetes</h2>
Dr. Rattaphong explained that the diabetes is divided into four major categories which are type 1, type 2, Gestational Diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) and the diabetes categorized as others.
The Type 2 diabetes is caused by insulin resistance (Insulin resistance) normally while eating the pancreases will produce the insulin to lower the level of blood glucose, problem is the resistance condition that causes ineffective function to the insulin as the blood sugar is not sent properly. The sugar level then increases when it happens for a long time Glucotoxicity will be created to the body system leading to Insulin Insufficiency.
