If you have not heard this word, tet me tell you alittle about diabeles so nat you Can understand what 11 means and how it happens. Nowadays in our beloved Republic, most of the government employees have Diabetes Which means they are DIABETIC. WHY — Because of what they eat, some People don’t really care what they eat. Food is very Important in the management of diabetes, so let's think about food and digestion. We take some food, chew it in our mouth, and then swailow it. The food goes down tw where it is digested. Digested means to break up inte small preces which go into your stomach and further down to your small intestines. Food has 3 substances: Fats, Proteins, Carbohydrates Different Foods contain different amounts of some ar ail of these When foods containing carbohydrates are eaten, the carbohydrate is digested to sugar. The blood goes around the body carrying the sugar with it to all parts of the body. The body is made of tiny pieces called cells, Your It needs help. The suvat hetper is called Insulin. fasulin helps the sugar aut of the blood and tty the cells. fnsulin ts sumething which we make inside our bady in a special part of the body called pancreas ur sweet bread. Because the pancreas makes insulin we refer Co it as the insulin factory A Diabetic person has a lacy pancreas, Remember that insulin ts very tmporiant for helping the sugar out of the bluod. In diabetic peuple, sugar stays in the blood because there i nul enough insulin to help the sugar oul and into the cells. There are some people whose pancreas makes enough insulin but still they are diabetic. These people are obese (fat). They have diabetes because they ’te tau fat, and the fat gets tn the way of insulin’s work The tat stops tnsulin from taking the bluud where 1 ts needed These people also have too much sugar in thea blood. Now we know two reasuns fur dtabeles: The first one is because they have a lazy pancreas which does not make enough insulin, the second 1s because they are tue fat which gets in the way of insulin to stop it trom working. Too much sugar in the bluud means dunger. Remember you are what you eat.
