As a type-2 manager, this shit ain't easy to deal with. You can now imagine what the managers of the oga kpatakpata of them all (Type 1) have to deal with on a daily.

It ain't funny at all emotionally, physically, and most of all, financially.

We keep pushing, watching our diet, and exercising (the main key).
Just woke up to scan my sensor and we seem to be good...

how do u scan ur sensor?

FireUpNow:

The pancreases is the organ on the body that produces insulin. So lack of product or no production is the root cause oo.

I bele8ve too.much sugar intake will overwork it and make it shut down...which will lead to little to no production of insulin anymore...and the consequence is a full.blown diabetes.

GreatAchiever1:


As much as I agree with this, wetin an average Nigerian go come chop, because most if not all dey chop at least one of the aforementioned.

portion control. We will eat one big plate of rice, small meat, no vegetables then drown it with coke. The chinese wey get rice self use small bowl to serve rice they will add vegetables and enough protein then take water.

ednut1:
many trek ( in the market, to bus stop etc) , do chores too. so it reduces impact. But those rich people wey dey enter car everywhere he dey hold them fast

that's true

trekking is a form of exercise

intermittent fasting can also be a cure

Haha! Good point.

ednut1:
Bread/flour, rice, soft drinks, alcohol, swallow high in starch/ sugar are the main culprits of type 2 for many Nigerians. Eat well, exercise, avoid pot belly like mr ibu own.

what was in the plate?

Educated illiterates would soon argue over this.
Nollywood celebrities and these yeyebrities singers won't take their health seriously and would be living a riotous and unhealthy lifestyle, consuming rubbish.
Before long,they will appear on SM soliciting for donations for treatment of diet related life threatening ailment.

I've been managing this digestion disorder (popularly known as diabetes) now for more than twenty years. Not really using any drugs to control it.
Let me share what I found out or discovered abt it
1. There was a particular food you ate a long time ago that a didn't obey d law of peristalsis. That means, you didn't vomit it neither did it go inside your stomach for digestion. That was d beginning of diabetes.
Subsequently, little by little other food portions fall there and it grows gradually narrowing ur the path in ur esophagus that obeys normal peristalsis. As some parts in ur esophagus get block with food d nerves connected to those parts gradually dies. As undigested food in ur esophagus increases the sugar that goes to bloodstream increases, so also other complications.
When it sets in, don't ever put this food items in ur mouth again.
1 Anything made with flour.
2 Any fried, baked, smoked food. Or any food that water as been taken out of.
3. Red meat in fact any kind of meat except boiled fish.
Adhere to these rules and you'll be fine.
When I run into crisis after eating any of d above food I have a secret weapon to get back on my feet. I'll discuss that later.

Eating plenty of beans (especially Red kidney beans), exercise, and good restful sleep can really be of help against diabetes.

[center]"Obesity, inactive lifestyles, poor eating habits, aging, and
genetic predisposition are generally considered as the risk
factors of diabetes [3]. Nutritional and dietary interventions
can play a greater role in managing hyperglycemia condition
among diabetes. Reduction of the intake of carbohydrate
foods made with refined wheat flour has been found to be an
effective approach in controlling post-prandial hyperglycemia
[4]. For this, increase in the consumption of beans of grain
legumes is said to be remarkably helpful as they are excellent
sources of protein and dietary fibre and provide many essential
vitamins and minerals" [/center]

With my phone.

Another key fact: Diabetes can occur in children

Knowledge they say is power there are some diseases that are not curable by prayer and fasting or pastors laying hands on you but if some lifestyles can be adjusted

Although I'm a bit comfortable in life but I still see everything in this life as nonsense and useless and unfortunate. Why will man come to this world just to battle for survival.
Before you could survive the many challenges life throws on you, you are closed to your grave.

What is the essence of life

Is it just waiting for death?

Mindlog:
Lifestyle choices are key influencers.

When you say lifestyle ( because i have been hearing about this) what does it mean?

Artiiclebeast:


It is a sensor. One that can be attached to any part of the body and scanned using a phone to get the readings.

It's called Libre Freestyle Sensor.

Each sensor is for 14 days and costs about $100. Health insurance helps me get it at $25 for each 14 days and can only be gotten with a doctor's prescription.

God bless America.

Please you need to be more careful. Watch your diet and take your medicine religiously. Do you exercise at all?

Upaka:

Pennilessword1:


When you say lifestyle ( because i have been hearing about this) what does it mean?

Not eating healthy, not exercising, not seeing a doctor for routine checks, alcohol and tobacco abuse, etc.

These are some examples of lifestyle choices.

Still leveling down now.

From 12pm I go back small poundo with plenty egusi soup and protein and that's it for the day until tomorrow.

If I must eat anything else later, it's either some salad or pepper soup.

Is it just waiting for death?

This is a fundamental question? What if we don't even know the intention of the creator?

Certainly life is not about comfort, money enjoyment etc. And it is not about being around in healthy state forever.

If only we can invest a fraction of the time we use for studying other ephemeral things to investigate the very purpose of life....

Tour fact number seven is wrong. Sugar and frequent eating are some of the major reasons for diabetics.


The food and pharmacitical giants keep scamming us for profits.

Anybody wey know know say sugar especially artificial sweeteners used in foods increase risk of Type II diabetes na diabetes go kill am.

Macdonald and other junk food deliberately put high fructose corn syrup in their foods.

High Fructose corn syrup make you eat without feeling satisfied.

Have you ever eaten bread, biscuits candy and cakes and it feels the more you eat the more hungrier you become?

Artificial sweeteners are the fuels for the growing incident of diabetes.

How about MSG use in cooking in fast foods.

The food companies and big pharma are owned by also same people.

Even the media is owned by those who own the food and pharma companies in the US.

Doctors are owned by the drug companies.

If a doctor refuse to follow the big pharma companies they will not give you grants and block you from the media.

Ask Doctor Jason fung and Dr John Abramson.

Jason fung show how to reverse Type II diabetes without drugs guess what?

He was drag like a ragdoll in Canada baba pianti go us na so them follow am.

Dr John Abramson shake big pharma exposing vixxo a drug that killed more American like the vitenam war.

He got called by the FDA FBI justice department and was Shaked down.

Baba know wetin sup him no agree.

This lead to fzier paying the largest fine in US history billions of dollars.

Nobody went to jail not one person.

Lifestyle Choices quite smoking drinking and Aviod carb rich foods.

Eat High protein low glycemic index foods.

Cut out bread pasta rice potatoes generally white flour.

Diabetic can eat bread but it should be bread made using almond flour or buckwheat... I know say wheat ooo.

Wheat contain gluten.

Also just Aviod foods produced with chemicals like roundup.

Monsanto (the evil corporation) maker of Roundup was just fined $175 billions for lying about the effects of Roundup.

Here wey I dey I go farms go inspect how them Dem farm once I check and you dey use chemical na bye bye.

Also if you're a diabetics check the proportion list.

It's a list of chemicals that can increase your risk of cancer and heart dieases.

Google it because it's so important.

Small lifestyle changes can make a different but people get excuses.

You can't eat all the junks and be healthy.

If you've kids that's diabetics especially Type II diabetes know as a parent you'd fail your kids.

I've never seen a kids drive to the market or stall to buy junk food everyday.

You need to apologize to that your son or daughter.

kokomilala:
Diabetes Is Not A Disease- It's A Lifestyle Problem

The pressing point for me there is number 7. Sugar-refined or otherwise is not the culprit in type 2 diabetes. It is OVEREATING.

All foods break down as glucose, a form of sugar. It's then stored in the cells as GLYCOGEN. Now, when one overeats, the bloodstream is overloaded with this glucose and the pancreas can't produce enough insulin to shutter it to the cells. Thus, insidiously type 2 diabetes begins to set in.

I've argued many times that type 2 diabetes is not a disease but a lifestyle issue because it can be managed with sensible nutrition and an active, physical lifestyle.

The pancreas is not the only organ to check ooo.

Complete thyroid gland liver and kidneys analysis is important.

Diabetic foot neuropathy can be also caused by kidney dieases.

If kidney malfunction it'll likely affect the digestive system too which increase risk of diabetic complications.

By then most times it's advance stage.

Food companies just want to make gain check macdonald fries it's more than 1000 calorie.

Fused with sugar and addictive compound like potassium acesulfame maltodexin and sodium nitride.

Nobody calls them out why?

Artiiclebeast:


Club mate....lol

Dem no dey tell person.

Broccoli and vegetable juice dey sweet for my mouth these days...

Guys, avoid abusing orange juice as much as you can, please.

Mostly you guys that lived in the US, it's one of the reasons why I will never think of coming to the US.

Check all your food labels.

You'll find in most foods and drinks
Aspartame cancer causing
Blue and red dyes cancer and ADHD causing
Maltodexin toxic to gut health
Potassium acesulfame
Sorbitol
Sodium nitride in sodas.
In ice cream soy lecithin and polysorbate P80
Sorbitan tristerate and Sequestering agents.
Nitrogen gas for ice cream.

All these chemicals na slow posion.

Henry Kissinger depopulation through food on steroid!!!

Everything for American tire person abi na chocolate or pasta or drinks.

Good info, thanks 👍

My own is pls nobody should fall sick in this wicked economy.
