Type 2 diabetes is without a doubt one of the most serious consequences of overweight. With the constant growth of globally obesity, the International Diabetes Foundation estimates that 415 million adults are currently with diabetes, while 318 million are "prediabetic", that is to say present a Chronic glucose intolerance that exposes them at a high risk Of the possibility of developing the disease. This situation is very worrying because diabetes is aged prematurely the blood vessels and significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease.
We generally consider that type 2 diabetes is an irreversible chronic disease, which can not be healed, and that the only therapeutic option remains to limit damage caused by hyperglycemia. In this testimony, Normand Mousseau, Professor of Physics at the University of Montreal, shows that this is not the case and that draconian changes to lifestyle that cause significant weight loss, can be sufficient to reinforce blood glucose and completely disappear diabetes, without medical or pharmacological intervention. This is a spectacular example of the immense potential of lifestyle not only to prevent, but also cure certain diseases that come from overweight.
I received my diagnosis of type 2 diabetes four years ago, in May 2013. Following an infection that did not heal, I went to see a doctor. At age 46, I did not have a family doctor and had no medical examination for a long time. Indeed, despite an important overweight - I then weighed 230 pounds (104 kg), for a size of 5'11 '' (180 cm) - I thought in good health.
A few days after a blood test recommended by my doctor, he announced the bad news: my fasting blood glucose rate exceeded 14 mmol / l, twice the threshold for a diabetic. When I asked him what I could do to heal, he told me that type 2 diabetes is a chronic and degenerative disease. All I could do was slow down its progress and limiting its effects by coupling medication to weight loss, better diet and a little physical exercise.
This news struck me full whip: type 2 diabetes is a terrible and sneaky disease, which affects the quality of life and causes even death.
So I decided, as soon as I received my diagnosis, change my way of life. While taking 500, then 850 mg metformin twice a day, I cut the sugar, I added a lot of vegetables to my diet and I started the race. I also learned how to use a glucose meter and follow the daily evolution of my blood glucose, dreading every day to see the acceptable thresholds.
My change of lifestyle has allowed me to lose thirty pounds quickly. By the end of 2013, I could run 5 to 7 km or three times a week, and my weight swelled around 195 pounds. My diabetes was maintained
Nevertheless. With the certainty that this disease would progress and all my efforts would not lead much.
Finally, almost a year after my diagnosis, in April 2014, I decided to return to the charge and check, by myself, if type 2 diabetes was really a chronic disease. After a few days of research in medical journals and on the Internet, between false promises and the half-truths, I found a new that seemed credible and confirmed that yes, type 2 diabetes can be cured!
The cure proposed by Professor Roy Taylor of the University of Lancaster in the UK is a simplicity to scare: you have to lose weight, usually much and probably quickly.
Taylor relies on three series of results, some of whom go back more than fifty years:
• First of all, we have known since the mid-1970s that a significant fraction of type 2 diabetics that undergo a bariatric operation aimed at reducing the size of the stomach and facilitating weight loss healing diabetes; The disease is not irreversible;
• Then, we have known for twenty years that the beta cells of the pancreas, responsible for the production of insulin, are very sensitive to the presence of fat molecules;
                                                                                                  
• Finally, thanks to magnetic imaging, it has been found that even in a group of people who have normal weight, some diabetic individuals show a higher grease presence in the internal organs.
From these works, Taylor concluded that the presence of fat in the internal organs is toxic to the pancreas and by reducing it, it is possible to allow this organ to function again normally. He has developed an approach he has tested on 13 diabetic and overweight individuals: for two months, they have adopted a very low calorie diet, 600 to 700 calories during the day. Despite the small size of the study, the results, published in 2011, are stumbling: the majority of participants presents a blood glucose under the threshold of diabetes and managed to maintain this normal blood glucose After three months after the end of this study. In a journal article published a little later, Taylor tells that his approach also works for insulin people.
I was stunned with reading this research. Can a simple solution really work?
Since I did not have much to lose to test the approach, except a little weight, so I started the diet with a very low calorie, adopting an approach by alternating the steps:
• a 600 calorie diet for 8 to 10 days, eating a minimum of 200 g of vegetables and drinking 2 liters of water each day
• Three weeks with a more reasonable diet at 1500 calories.
At the end of my third period at 600 calories, in August 2014, I had reached a weight of 165 pounds, losing about 30 pounds, and I was completely healed, with a fast-playing blood glucose about 5.8 mmol / l, without any medicine. A year later, in October 2015, with a weight stabilized at 170 pounds, my HBA1C was 5.1% and my blood glucose at 5.7 mmol / l.
Almost three years after the end of my cure, I eat normally, while monitoring my weight, I run 3 times a week of 8 to 10 km and I maintain my fasting glycemia around 5.7 mmol / l. Of course, I remain likely to develop type 2 diabetes again - my genetic predisposition did not fly away! - And if I resumed weight, it is very likely that after some time, my pancreas is resetting me. However, I am no longer diabetic and it's a great relief.
Since the publication of my book, last year, I have received many testimonials from people from all ages who told me that they had also managed to overcome their type 2 diabetes by following this diet. Some have written me that their doctor just did not come back. All told me that their lives had been changed.
Despite its simplicity, this cure is not easy: lose weight requires a significant effort; Do not regain it requires a desire to iron and a profound change of its lifestyle habits. The effort is worth it, however, because type 2 diabetes is a devastating disease that greatly decreases our quality of life. So there is no reason not to get there today!

The first and most important in match play is how to lose. Losing cheerfully, generously and as a sportsman. This is the first great law of tennis, and the second is like that: win modestly, cheerfully, generously and as a sportsman.

The goal of match play is to win, but no credit is given to a man who does not win fairly and squarely. A victory is a defeat if it is not right. Again, I say that winning is the object, and to do that, you have to play the last ounce of its strength, the last breath of its breath and the last strand of its nerve. If you do it and lose, the best man wins. If you do not, you have deprived your opponent of his right to beat your best. Be fair to him and to yourself.

The game is considered the thing and during the game, the excellent defeat is considered more believable than the hollow victory. Play tennis for the fun of the game. Play for the men you meet, the friends you make, and the fun you can give the public with the sports and sports game that is due to them by their presence at the game.

Many tennis players feel they owe nothing to the public and give a favor by playing. I am convinced that when the public honors a player who attends matches, he is obliged to give his best, freely, willingly and with joy, because only in this way can he repay the honor which had been paid. Today's tennis star owes its audience as much as the actor owes to its audience, and it is only by the respect of its obligations that the tennis will be able to be retained with the favor of the public. Players derive their reward from the personal popularity they earn through their conscientious work.

There is another factor that is even stronger than that, which will always produce excellent tennis at championship tournaments. The competitive spirit is the vital breath of any sportsman: the desire to prove to himself that he can beat the best of the other man; the real regret that comes when he wins, and feels that the loser was not at his best.

The fierce competitive spirit that stimulates a match player also increases nervous tension. This should be recognized by the tournament committees and the playing conditions should be as standardized as the weather allows.

The first thing you need to think hard about when you play a match is to never allow your opponent to play a shot that he likes if it's possible to force him to do another one. Study your opponent on and off the field. Seek weakness and, once found, crush it without mercy. Remember that you do not decide on your attack mode. It's decided for you by the weakness of your opponent. If he does not like meeting a netman, go to the net. If he wants you to net, stay behind and force him to enter. If he attacks violently, face his attack with an equally strong offense.

Remember that the most powerful defense is to attack, because if the other man is busy dealing with your attack, he will have less time to formulate his own system.

If you play a very stable man, do not strive to beat him at his own game. He is better than you in many cases, so go ahead and hit to win. On the other hand, if you find that your opponent is wild and likely to miss your shot, play safely and collect the full extent of his mistakes. This saves you trouble and takes his trust.

Above all, never change a winning part.

Always change the losing game because, as you are beaten this way, you are not worse off and maybe better with a new style.

Trying to change the losing game is very dangerous. It's hard to say when you really got beaten. If you feel that you are playing well and you have lost the first set around 3-6 or 4-6, with the loss of only one service, you should not change. Your game is not really a losing game. It is simply a break in service and may well win the next round. If, however, you have dropped the first set in a 2 of 3 match with only one or two matches, you are now outclassed and you should try something else.

Take risks when you are late, never when you are ahead. Risks are only worth when you have everything to gain and nothing to lose. This can spell the end of victory and at least not hasten the defeat. Above all, never lose your courage and your confidence in a match. In doing so, you have awarded your opponent about two points per game, a handicap rather difficult to beat your best.

Never let your opponent know that you are worried. Never show fatigue or pain if it is possible to avoid, as this will only give him confidence. Remember that he feels as bad as you and any sign of weakening on your part encourages him to continue. In other words, keep your teeth still in the game.

Do not worry. No fuss. Luck is a long-term fixture, and worrying only upsets your game without affecting your opponent. The smile earns a lot of points because it reflects the impression of your psychology  that shakes that of the other man. Fight all the time. The stronger the pressure, the more you have to fight, but do it easily, happily and enjoy it.

Coffee is the most popular and most consumed drink in the world. It is usually served hot prepared from roasted coffee beans. Its popularity has given birth to many types of instant coffee. The word coffee entered the English way in 1598 from the Italian word "caffa" to the Turkish word "kahveh" to the Arabic word "qahwa". The ultimate origin of the word is uncertain if there are several legendary stories about the origin of the drink.

                 Coffee is a drink that appeals to all people, regardless of age or location. The coffee is hot or cold. The preparation of cold coffee is as popular as the hot one. You can have your coffee with or without milk or simply with whipped cream to make it delicious.

                  Coffee is one of the most popular oil sales in the world. The popularity of coffee can also be judged by the growing number of pubs and cafes around the world. You can find people of all age groups hanging in their coffee while enjoying a cup of coffee. In the morning, in the afternoon or at night, the coffee trade does not stop.

                    Many studies have shown that coffee reduces the risk of many diseases and conditions such as diabetes, gallstones, cirrhosis and many others.

Always feel under the weather? Still not want to rub shoulders with others and have a good time? If you suffer from prolonged sadness for some time now, you have to deal with these depression fits and get diagnosed by a psychiatrist. These are doctors who can help you solve your problem. Not to mention the various treatments for depression, as well as all sorts of depression medications that doctors prescribe to their patients with depression.

https://healt-elegance.blogspot.com/

Fortunately, depression can now be cured, especially when diagnosed early, depressed people may actually be treated with depression therapy and medication, although it may cost a bit, good mental health should not not be neglected. Cognitive behavioral conversations or interpersonal conversations are incredibly healthy depression treatments; they are just some of the treatments available for psycho social depression that cognitive-behavioral therapists can offer to their patients. They are actually able to produce successful and positive results, even for short sessions. about ten to twenty weeks are almost always enough for the depressed patient to slowly start recovering and regain healthy mental health.

Before starting to take medication for depression, the depressed patient must first seek treatment from a reputed physician, to get the diagnosis of the type of depression that he is actually suffering: clinical depression, manic depression or whatever. . It is best that you know exactly what you are dealing with, as there are various depression medications available on the market. Make sure you have the most appropriate medicine, one that will actually cure your illness.

There is actually a wide variety of antidepressant medications for depression to treat those with depressive disorders. The most popular are those that are selective serotonin re uptake inhibitors or SSRI variants, then there are tricycles, while the other popular variant is mono amine oxidase inhibitors or MAOIs. These anti-depression drugs (the SSRI variant as well as the other new anti-depression medication available on the market) are actually a much safer alternative to tricycle drugs because they have fewer side effects than tricycle antidepressant treatment.

Sometimes, doctors actually find it more effective to mix these medications for depression. Depending on everyone's needs, the doctor may even prescribe a variety of medications to help cure depression. In addition, doses of depression medications may be increased or decreased depending on what the doctor considers most effective. However, when it comes to taking these drugs against depression, it is strongly recommended that patients never mix these drugs and choose the doses to take without consulting their doctor beforehand.

Anti-anxiety or sedatives, however, should never be confused with drugs for depression. Although these anti-anxiety medications are often prescribed at the same time as depression medications, they do not really help to cure the disease of depression. Their only purpose is to help calm the nerves, so the patient should always take medication for depression.

In general, depression medications have common side effects, usually tricyclic. Some people tend not to worry about these side effects of depression medications. However, if it bothers you greatly and may ruin your ability to function properly, it is best if you talk to your doctor right away. The fairly common side effects of depression medications are:

Dry mouth: always having the irritating feeling of being hydrated, it is better to always have water (clean and drinkable) nearby to have something to drink whenever the mouth is dry, to chew gum without sugar and brush your teeth after each meal. It's also a good idea.

Constipation: Treat this discomfort by eating and absorbing a lot of fiber to help your digestion.

Blurred vision: Another temporary side effect, this one is quite easy to control, but if it is too disturbing, consult your doctor immediately.

Headache: Quite common with newer types of depression medications, it really does not matter and will go away easily.

Over time, one's physical condition may improve for the better and start thinking about using his money and trying to invest it somewhere. Why not think about the benefits of using his savings in life insurance? This method is considered one of the best ways to build capital at the long and long term. Life insurance is like a savings book, but it is better because its benefits remain on the long term.

term.Benefits of life insurance: low risk

Life insurance often gives you the choice between a fund called in euros and a fund in UC (Units of Account), or multi-media. When you choose the Euro Fund, often called the Security Fund, you are guaranteed to receive the announced interest rate. Your risk is therefore zero: you are not likely to lose money in relation to your contribution or your payments / You are sure to recover your stake, and the interest calculated according to the advertised rate. On the other hand, even if the risk is zero, the returns of single life insurance contracts are much more interesting than the rates of savings books, the main competitor. There may be in the best periods almost 1% difference between these two types of savings contracts stars.

Benefits of life insurance: an optimized tax system

The advantage of life insurance over other well-paying investments is that, if you meet an investment time of 8 years, you will be exempt from tax. That is, neither interest nor realized capital gains will be taxed in respect of income

Benefits of life insurance: a beneficiary in the event of death

The advantage of life insurance over a simple savings booklet is that you can specifically designate your beneficiary, and take it out of what is called your estate. This is equivalent to being able to choose to whom you wish to bequeath the sum invested, if you do not wish this sum to be distributed according to the rules of the common law between all your legal beneficiaries (husband, children, grandchildren, etc ...), and that this sum will not enter your estate, and will not be subject to inheritance tax.

Benefits of life insurance: flexibility

The advantage of life insurance is the cohort of contracts that can easily adapt to your needs. You want to prepare for your retirement? There are specific life insurance policies. Do you prefer to use life insurance as a guarantee to prepare for your child's future? This eventuality is quite conceivable: a pension education exists. Would you like to invest? The multitude of supports proposed in the life insurance contracts invites you to it. Do you want to take risks? UC contracts are for you. You want a guaranteed return and act as a good father? Head to the euro fund.

Life insurance can do almost anything, just ask an insurance professional to convince you.

Benefits of life insurance: a high rate of pay

Life insurance contracts are often considered the best long-term investments. As a result, the government can, among other things, ensure that life insurance retains the advantage over short-term investments by deciding not to revalue the passbook rate, as was done in January 2012, for example. The rate of return of life insurance is generally around 3% in the worst moments, and 4 to 5% in the best moments. In addition, if you want higher rates of return, you still have the opportunity to buy life insurance, and enjoy all the associated benefits, but by choosing a fund in UC, which will allow you to increase your remuneration ... . or reduce it if your choices have been risky or if the stock market situation is not favorable during the time your savings have been invested.

In the end, I tell you that the benefits of insurance for your life are great and come from your savings. But thinking about buying life insurance is a great risk. It is therefore imperative that you consult with the experts in this field and follow the news from here and there. The online way to compare life insurance comparisons to guide you through a variety of contracts, insurance experts are ready to answer all your questions by any means of communication you choose.

Research is currently experimenting with a drug and using more sophisticated methods in Anserm. Researchers have proved that humans are tolerant and well tolerated. It is not yet time to prove that it is effective

French researchers are testing a new antihypertensive drug that inhibits the action of an enzyme involved in hypertension. In France, more than 10% of the population would be affected by high blood pressure

Hypertension affects about one-third of people over the age of 50 and is one of the leading causes of consultation in general practice. As its name suggests, it is defined by high blood pressure (or blood pressure). Over time, it damages the arteries, shortens the heart and can lead to many cardiovascular problems. In general, doctors advocate a low salt diet and encourage weight loss in case of overweight. These healthy eating habits can also be accompanied by medication.

In a study published in the journal Clinical Pharmacokinetics, Inserm researchers have just developed a new antihypertensive drug called RB150 / QGC001, which has a different mode of action than other drugs. It inhibits aminopeptidase A, an enzyme that converts angiotensin II into the brain into angiotensin III. The second boosts blood pressure in three different ways. It increases blood levels of an antidiuretic hormone called vasopressin, improves the activity of sympathetic neurons associated with vessel vasoconstriction, and inhibits baroreflex, a physiological response that lowers blood pressure. "These three mechanisms contribute, independently of each other, to increase blood pressure," says Catherine Llorens-Cortes, co-author of the study.blood pressure

The blood pressure monitor is used to calculate the blood pressure (or blood pressure). The tensions are expressed in millimeters of mercury (Hg). Physicians consider that there is high blood pressure for systolic bloodpressure values ​​above 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure above 90 mmHg.

Antihypertensive with novel mode of action

The new antihypertensive, by blocking the synthesis of angiotensin III, should therefore limit the risk of hypertension in humans. "It's a bit of a three-in-one medicine," says the researcher. The molecule is currently actively developing. Phase I has just ended with convincing results on healthy volunteers. This step consisted in verifying the good tolerance of the administered molecule in a single dose (phase Ia) then in repeated doses for seven days (phase Ib). In both studies, the drug was well tolerated, which opens the door to a Phase IIa clinical trial in hypertensive patients.

This new step involves comparing the efficacy and safety of the new inhibitor with that of a placebo and an already known antihypertensive drug. The results will be available at the end of 2015. In the meantime, the team of Catherine Llorens-Cortes continues to search for new and more effective It is very possible that aminopeptidase A helps inhibitors of hypertensive patients better control the condition.

Alzheimer's is a complex disease and it is impossible to cure it at this time. However, many medications and therapeutic explorations are optimistic, and they are still time-limited and their purpose is to cure the pathological process of the disease while awaiting its elimination, in addition there are medications that alleviate the suffering to some extent and improve cognitive performance..

The efficacy of the treatments is evaluated by the doctor after 3 to 6 months. If necessary, the treatments are then changed. At the moment, the benefits of treatment are modest and medications do not prevent the disease from evolving.

The Foundation for Medical Research estimates that there are in 2016, nearly 900 000 people affected by Alzheimer's disease in France.

Medicines

The following medications are issued by prescription. One cannot know a priori which one will best suit the patient. Sometimes it takes a few months to find the proper treatment. According to studies, after 1 year of medication, 40% of people see their condition improve, 40% have a steady state and 20% do not feel any effect.

Cholinesterase inhibitors

They are used primarily to treat mild or moderate symptoms. This family of medications helps to increase the concentration of acetylcholine in certain regions of the brain (by decreasing its destruction). Acetylcholine makes neurodegenerative moves between neurons. It has been noted that people with Alzheimer's disease have lower amounts of acetylcholine in the brain because the destruction of their nerve cells reduces the production of this neurotransmitter.

In Canadian markets and at the moment there are three inhibitors of the cashew (the enzyme that destroys 

acetylcholine)

• Donepezil or E2020 (Aricept ®). It is taken in the form of tablets. It attenuates the mild, moderate and advanced symptoms of the disease;

• Rivastigmine (Exelon ®). Since February 2008, it has also been proposed as a skin patch: the medicine is absorbed slowly by the body for 24 hours. 

• The Galantamine hydrobromide (Reminyl ®). It is sold in tablet form taken once a day in the case of mild or moderate symptoms.

These medications lose their efficacy over time, since neurons still produce less and less acetylcholine. They can also cause side effects, such as nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite and stomach aches. In such a situation you must see your doctor who will regulate the dosage as you need it.

.

In the United States and France, Tacrine (Cognes ®) is used as a cholinesterase inhibitor. And on this can cause serious side effects and in Canada not approved

NMDA receptor antagonist

Since 2004, Memantine hydrochloride (Ebixa ®) has been given to relieve moderate or severe symptoms of the disease. This molecule acts by attaching to the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors located on brain neurons. It thus takes the place of glutamate which, when present in large quantities in the environment of neurons, contributes to the disease. There is no indication, however, that this drug slows down the degeneration of neurons

Current research

Major efforts are being made in the search for new drugs. The main objectives are as follows:

• Destroying beta-amyloid protein plaques through the injection of antibodies that can remove them. These plaques are, in fact, one of the most important brain lesions of the disease. Such an antibody has been developed (the name of the molecule is bapineuzumab) and is being clinically evaluated by people with the disease. This approach is called "therapeutic vaccine". Another solution tested would be to activate certain brain cells (microglia) to remove the plaques in question

• Replace neurons. The scientific community has a great deal of hope for the replacement, using a transplant, of neurons destroyed by the disease. Nowadays, researchers are able to create cells that resemble neurons from stem cells obtained from human skin. However, the method is not quite in focus. It still does not allow to create neurons that possess all the properties of "natural" neurons.

Physical exercise

Doctors advise Alzheimer's patients to exercise. It improves strength, stamina, cardiovascular health, sleep, blood circulation and mood, and increases dynamism and energy levels. In addition, physical exercise has a particularly beneficial effect for people with this disease:

• helps maintain motor capacity;

• It gives an impression of meaning and purpose;

• It has a soothing effect;

• Maintains the level of energy, flexibility and balance;

• Reduces the risk of serious injury in the event of a fall.

People who take care of the sick can make two strokes with one stone while exercising at the same time as their patients

Social support

Considered a component of treatment, social support for the sick is crucial. The doctors advise various strategies to the family and caregivers of the patients.

• Make regular visits to patients to provide support, depending on their needs;

• Provide them with aide-memoires;

• Create a stable and calm living structure in the house;

• Establish a bedtime ritual;

• Ensure that they always have a card (or bracelet) in their pocket with an indication of their health status, as well as telephone numbers in case they égareraient.

The associations also offer support in various forms. See the Sites of Interest section.

To communicate well

It is difficult to get in touch with someone who has Alzheimer's disease. Here are some conseils.

To do

*. Show a thoughtful listening attitude.

*. Approach the person from the front, looking into the eyes. Introduce yourself if this proves necessary.

*. Speak slowly and quietly, with a sympathetic attitude.

*. Use simple and short terms

*. Demonstrate empathy, patience and understanding. Touch the person, or squeeze it in your arms, if you think it can help.

*. Ask only one question at a time and give enough time for the answer.

*. Formulate your suggestions in a positive way. Instead of saying ' Let's not go there ', for example, say ' Let's go to the garden '.

*. When talking about a third person, repeat the name. 

*. If the person has difficulty making a choice, give him or her a suggestion.

Not to be done

*. Do not treat it as a child.

*. Do not talk about the person as if they were not there.

*. If this can be avoided, do not correct it and do not seek to confront it.

Specialists have structured another synthetic dependent on sandalwood oil. This item would have the ability to animate hair development in people. This revelation would be another want to battle sparseness.

Finally an effective treatment for baldness? This is what researchers from the University of Manchester in Great Britain are saying that have made an astonishing discovery. Ralf Paus and his team have brought to light the benefits of sandalwood oil on the hair growth.

Marketing a treatment at the beginning of the year?

Scientists have discovered that the hair follicles contain "olfactory receptors" that respond to certain odors by triggering the multiplication of the main protein of the hairline. The receptors contained in the hair could in particular recognize the scent of sandalwood oil.

Many cosmetics already contain sandalwood oil. The hair would be "sensitive" to this odor.

The researchers therefore exposed the tissues of the human scalp of donors aged 38 to 69 years, recently operated from a face lift, to the artificial smell of sandalwood, which is often added to perfumes and moisturizers in cosmetics. Result: After six days of application on incipient baldness, keratin levels begin to increase. Understand that hair growth would be stimulated!

"This is the first time it has been shown that the remodeling of a human mini-organ, a hair in this case, can be regulated by a simple cosmetic odor and widely used.

The specialists are presently directing an extensive scale clinical preliminary, controlled by well being experts. On the off chance that the outcomes are decisive, a treatment could be advertised by the start of one year from now. Meanwhile, this revelation is now making a great deal of seek after the a huge number of people influenced by sparseness issues.

1. Dieting     

Dieting can eliminate grease by reducing sugary drinks, such as soda, tea, and sweetened coffee; as it contributes to increased abdominal fat (visceral fat). Minimize simple carbohydrates, such as white bread, sugary foods, refined grains with low nutritional value, and high fever at the same time, increasing the accumulation of fat in the abdominal area. Simple carbohydrates should be replaced with complex carbohydrates such as whole grains. Eat lots of vegetables and fruits, which are a substitute for simple carbohydrates, as well as fiber in the diet, which helps to regulate the level of sugar in the blood, abdominal fat is a dangerous factor in resistance to insulin and diabetes. Eat more protein, such as whole eggs, fish, seafood, legumes, nuts, meat, dairy, and some whole grains. Eating foods rich in fiber, such as vegetables, fruits, legumes, and some grains such as oats, can also be obtained from supplements, such as acetic acid in vinegar produces proteins that burn fat, and another study showed that people who ate a tablespoon Or two tablespoons of vinegar per day for 8 weeks have noticed a significant loss in body fat, especially abdominal fat.

2. Yoga practice

Yoga Practice Studies have shown a significant loss of abdominal fat for women who have practiced postmenopausal yoga for 16 weeks. Yoga practice can be replaced by any type of relaxation exercise, which helps reduce the level of stress hormone cortisol, which is associated with abdominal fat.

3 - running in a ramp

Jogging in a Slope Place Studies have shown that jogging on a slope helps increase the total calorie burning rate by 50%, preferably when the person starts walking for 5-10 minutes, and then jogging either outside or in a gym on a device Walk for 5 minutes, followed by jogging for another 5 minutes, return to the jogging position, continue rotating between jogging of 5-10 minutes, jogging for 5-10 minutes for 30-45 minutes.

The body creates an atom, the one that could be the new restorative voice against diabetes.

The exeline has been effective in regulating blood sugar levels and increasing the sensitivity of cells to insulin, according to the results of a study published in the Medical journal Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism. This is a new therapeutic pathway for the 400 million of people in the world affected by diabetes.

INSERM researchers in Toulouse (unit 1048 "Institute of Metabolic and Cardiovascular diseases" INSERM/Université Toulouse III-Paul Sabatier) conducted a clinical trial to test the efficacy of the eline to regulate the sugar level in the Blood and improve the sensitivity of the cells to insulin.

The effective and without side effects

The exeline is a ubiquitous molecule (present throughout the organism) that can, if necessary, regulate the rate of sugar in the organism instead of insulin. But it only activates if the main control function is not effective.

"By discovering this alternative way of assimilating sugar in other ways, thanks to the latter, the researchers quickly had the idea to stimulate this natural pathway and to produce the synthesise," recalls the Inserm communiqué.

They recruited 16 healthy but overweight men to participate in a study aimed at identifying the benefits and tolerance of two different doses of intravenously administered. The first group had a dose equivalent to 9nmol/kg, and the second group received 30 nmol/kg. The blood glucose levels of the patients were measured before and after the injection.

The findings of this study showed that the injection of the lowest dose resulted in a better assimilation of blood glucose, while the administration of the highest dose resulted in addition to a proven increase in the sensitivity of Insulin cells. No side effects were observed.

"This is designated" verification of Concept "clarifies Philippe Valet, creator of the investigation." Even if the example is little, the outcomes we have quite recently gotten urge us to move to more generous numbers with the end goal to affirm them on a more extensive scale and to visualize a certifiable advertising authorisation.

Diabetes is a serious chronic 

disease that causes many health complications if not controlled, such as kidney disease, poor vision, nerve infections and immune impairment..

In this report, we present a set of golden rules for type 2 diabetics that help control blood sugar levels, as published on the web site "WebMD", which include:

1. Carefully deal with fat, although it is indispensable, but must choose the health types that contain such as olive oil, nuts and avocados, and is also recommended to eat low-fat dairy products.

2. Avoid drinking alcohol and alcohol.

3. Stay away from soft drinks and sugar-sweetened juices, as sugar significantly raises glucose levels in blood without stimulating the feeling of fullness, which increases the chances of obesity, because people will resort to eating more food.

4. It is recommended to use small dishes and eat less food, a wonderful opportunity to eat everything you like, rice, pasta and potatoes without fear of any complications, and is advised to avoid eating high-fat snacks to prevent the incidence of overweight, one of the main factors of control On diabetes.

5. Increase the intake of foods rich in fiber such as vegetables, fruits, legumes and whole grains, because they contribute to enhance the feeling of fullness for a long time and will maintain the stability of your weight.

6. Meat that contains a low percentage of fat, and eating poultry meat and birds after removing their skin, preferably meat roasts or boiled, and keep away from frying.

7. Taking large amounts of water contributes to the prevention of excessive eating and restricts gaining more weight. Also, taking too much water will reduce blood glucose levels.
