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.
