Type-2 Diabetes – Dr. Rupa Shah's Healin' Temple

Type-2 diabetes is a chronic condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn’t produce enough insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. This leads to high levels of glucose in the blood. Over time, high blood sugar can cause serious health problems. Type-2 diabetes is most commonly seen in adults, but it can also develop in children and teenagers, especially with increasing obesity rates.

Symptoms of Type-2 Diabetes

The symptoms of Type-2 diabetes can develop slowly and may include:

Increased thirst and frequent urination.
Unexplained weight loss.
Extreme hunger.
Fatigue and low energy levels.
Blurred vision.
Slow-healing sores or frequent infections.
Areas of darkened skin, usually in the armpits and neck.
Tingling, pain, or numbness in the hands or feet (a sign of nerve damage).

Causes of Type-2 Diabetes

Type-2 diabetes is caused by a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors, including:

Genetics: If you have a family history of Type-2 diabetes, you are more likely to develop the condition.
Obesity: Excess fat, especially around the abdomen, can cause the body to become resistant to insulin.
Physical Inactivity: Lack of exercise contributes to obesity and insulin resistance.
Unhealthy Diet: Diets high in refined carbs, sugars, and unhealthy fats increase the risk.
Age: The risk increases with age, especially after 45.

Diagnosis of Type-2 Diabetes

Diagnosis typically involves:

Fasting Blood Sugar Test: Measures blood sugar after fasting overnight.
A1C Test: Shows your average blood sugar level over the past 2-3 months.
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test: Measures blood sugar before and after drinking a sugary drink.

Treatment of Type-2 Diabetes

Treatment for Type-2 diabetes involves lifestyle changes and, in some cases, medication:

Lifestyle Changes: Eating a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight loss are key components.
Medications: These can include metformin to improve insulin sensitivity or other drugs that help regulate blood sugar.
Monitoring Blood Sugar: Regular monitoring is essential to keep blood sugar levels under control.
Insulin Therapy: Some people with Type-2 diabetes may need insulin injections.

Prevention of Type-2 Diabetes

Preventing Type-2 diabetes involves maintaining a healthy lifestyle:

Healthy Diet: Focus on whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
Regular Exercise: Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week.
Weight Management: Keeping a healthy weight is crucial in preventing diabetes.
Avoid Smoking: Smoking increases the risk of diabetes and other health issues.
Regular Check-ups: Regular health screenings can help detect diabetes early.

How Flower Remedies Can Help in Treating Type-2 Diabetes

Flower remedies, which are natural remedies made from the essence of flowers, are thought to help balance emotional states and reduce stress, which can indirectly benefit those with Type-2 Diabetes. Stress management is important because stress can cause blood sugar levels to rise. Flower remedies are used to help manage emotions like fear, anxiety, and depression, which are common in people with chronic conditions like diabetes.

While flower remedies may offer support for emotional well-being, they should not replace conventional medical treatments for Type-2 Diabetes. Instead, they can be used as a complementary therapy to help manage stress and improve overall quality of life. Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new treatment.
