Know your diabetes.Type2. Part--2
The second type of diabetes is much more common. This occurs in middle-aged people, especially if they are overweight. Because it occurs later in life, this type of diabetes is often called adult-or maturity-onset diabetes. It is also called type-2 diabetes. Type-2 diabetes is quite different from Type

Know your diabetes.let us start from basics.It is just recap,every diabetic know about details of diabetes. Part---1.

Why fasting blood glucose level remains elevated even when it is within normal limits through out the day?
For practical purposes there appears to be three causes: (1) There is not enough insulin at night time to maintain control over blood glucose level in the early morning period. (2) Dawn phenomenon:-the blood glucose level rise and insulin requirement increase between 3am and 7am.This increase in insulin

Recent Blood Tests have shown i'm now Pre-Diabetic. Is this linked with low cortisol?
Hi everyone, this was part of my bad news just after Christmas. I expected it because i've now been fat since 1990. I find it hard to exercise through painful feet, exhaustion, but i'm not exactly a couch potato either. My diet isn't that bad, i've always eaten whole grains, bread pasta, brown rice.
