(PRWEB) April 23, 2005 -- Around the country, diabetes affects an estimated 18.2 million Americans, and the number rises each year. To briefly explain, diabetes is a malfunction of the Langehans Glands, situated in the Pancreas, to produce Insulin. Insulin enables the body to dissolve the sugar into energy for the muscles. So, for a diabetic patient, the sugar stays in the blood. That causes the body tissues to get tender and they start deteriorating faster than normal. There are two type of diabetes:
TYPE I DIABETES – usually occurs in children and young adults, but can develop at any age. People with type I diabetes need insulin every day.
TYPE II DIABETES – usually occurs in adults who overweight, are in their middle or later years, and have family members with diabetes. Many people can control this type of diabetes with diet, weight loss, and exercise. Some will also need diabetes pills or insulin.
To take care of type I or type II diabetes, a person needs to eat healthy foods, exercise, take medicine if it is prescribed, and see a doctor on a regular basis. Without diagnosis and treatment, diabetes may result in long-term complications, such as blindness, heart attack, stroke, kidney disease or amputation.
In the United States, about 100 billion dollars are spent on diabetes care in every year.
According to a Clark County research in 1999 (Source: http://www.ag.unr.edu/uced/reports/technicalreports/fy1998_1999/9899_03rpt.pdf), on average, patients seeking medical treatment for diabetes directly spend 3.7 times more per year than patients seeking routine medical treatment, $10,071 compared to $2,669.
