Laughter is the best medicine unless you are a diabetic; in that sense insulin can be the best option!

Same as with many PWD’s (People with Diabetes), you must be getting irritated and cranky when people make fun of you! But the fact is that like dealing with the bugs under the bed, accepting and laughing over your diabetes is the better option than hiding it under the cover.

Diabetes is a serious, inverterate ailment affecting routine pattern of your lifestyle and thus leading to various life threatening complications such as heart attack, kidney failure, blindness and the list goes on. In medical terminology it is named by the Greek and Roman doctors as “ Diabetes Mellitus”, where Diabetes means passing through in Greek and Mellitus is a Latin word for sweet or honeyed. Factual meaning of the two words is that the urine of the people with diabetes contains sugar and it passes through the body very quickly.

Many ignorant people, who have not been preyed for this mighty, chronic disease so far; can take it synonymous with too much of sugar. Although the coverted fact is that the sugar is not the only element responsible for the condition, but is associated with the obesity, age and also important metabolical abnormality due to faulty gene inherited from the family. Being not just a single disease, but an umbrella under which several forms exist; Diabetes commonly comprises of two regular forms Type 1 Diabetes and Type II Diabetes. Though the leading cause is still unknown, it affects the way our body utilizes food.  In general our body needs glucose in the form of energy for performing day to day activities. For that matter, the healthy body turns carbohydrates obtained from food into glucose; which is transported to cells through the blood stream. Once inside the cells it waits for the pancreas to do the job.

Stem Cell Treatment for Diabetes
The pancreas is a small organ behind the stomach containing the glands called the “Islets of Langerhans”. These glands contain a special kind of cells known as “Beta Cells” responsible for producing a hormone known as Insulin. The main function of the Insulin is to allow glucose to be utilized by the cells. Without Insulin it is just impossible for cells to employ glucose for the normal functioning of the body; if something goes wrong with this generalized metabolic processes the onset of Diabetes occurs.  The disease is characterized by too little or no production of insulin as in case of Type 1 Diabetes or in other sense insulin being unable to metabolize glucose as in case of Type 2 Diabetes, either way since the glucose cannot get into the body’s cells; it builds up in the blood and eventually passes out by the urine.

Unlike the customary supportive treatment options such as medications or insulin shots, today people with diabetes have better chances of survival and improving life. With the progressive development, exploitation of Stemcells Treatment for Diabetes can be a smarter choice.They are like a fresh debutante with the desire to explore to be any type of cells of the body. If treated in a right direction, any recipes can be made with them. In that direction, the research has always shown great  promises, with the important advancement being in vitro development of insulin producing beta cells of the pancreas from stem cells.  Further to achievements and progress with the autologous use of stem cells from your own body has taken care of the key issues like safety concerns, teratoma formation, transplantation and autoimmune responses etc.

Thus, with all the controversies surrounding, stem cell treatment fordiabetes ; have shown a highway of the enormous potential in improving health and quality of life with the additional benefit of living without medicinal and dietary obligations.
