Ways to prevent yourselves from getting diabetes.
Diabetes (type 1 mostly found in children and also in adults nowadays ) occurs when your pancreas becomes exhausted digesting sugars in your body and cannot produce anymore insulin to digest the sugars.
Type 2 diabetes ( mostly found in adults) occurs when body cells becomes resistant to insulin over time which in turn is again due to heavy intake of sugars leading to too much production of insulin in the body over time making the body cells insensitive to insulin.
So limiting sugar intake in your diet is the first step to preventing diabetes.
1. Limit sugar intake. Chocolates, sweets, cakes, and anything sweet .
2. Rice and bread (wheat) is also sugars. They convert into glucose in the body.
Reduce the rice and the wheat and increase vegetables in your diet.
3. Burgers and pizzas ( made up of wheat) is also mostly sugars. Limit their intake too.
4. Eat lots of fresh vegetables. Different vegetables have different minerals in them which serve different purposes in the body.
5. Get in the habit of eating some fruit too. Fruit though contain sugars, also contain a lot of different vitamins. Replace the rice of one meal with fruit.
6. Get out in the sun. Preferably the morning sun. So that you get vitamin D without burning your skin. Burnt skin wont synthesize vitamin D until the burnt layer sheds and new layer forms again.
Deficiency of vitamin D has been linked to a number of health problems including diabetes, alzheimers, parkinsons, rheumatoid arthritis , asthma ( common problems observed everywhere. In almost every hospital and health clinic these days you have a special bulletin displayed on the importance of vitamin D.
