Dr. Jean-Francois Yale The Story of Understanding The Symptoms of Hypoglycemia

So hypoglycemia is usually when we don't have enough sugar in the blood. And the sugar is important to make our different organs function well, like the muscles, the heart, and particularly the brain. So when the sugar comes to be too low, the brain senses that and tries to make sure that the sugar will go back up. And one of the things that does, it asked the body to secrete stress hormones that will make the sugar go up.

Diabetes is a disease in which the body is unable to properly use and store glucose. Type 1 diabetics use insulin to manage their blood sugar, while type 2 diabetics don’t.

Following a healthy diet and exercise plan can contribute to the prevention of conditions such as obesity and diabetes.

Aerobic activity uses your heart and lungs for a long period of time. It also helps your heart use oxygen better and improves blood flow.

Le Dr. Pierre Filteau, MD, LMCC, CFPC/CMFC Parle des symptômes du diabète et de l'importance d'un bon contrôle de la glycémie.

Le diabète est une maladie chronique ou le sucre dans le sang est trop élevé. Le sucre va être trop élevé s’il n’y a pas de transporteur pour amener le sucre du vaisseau sanguin aux cellules du corps humain. Cette hormone, ce transporteur s’appelle l’insuline. Il est sécrété par le pancréas. Il y a deux types généralement plus communs du diabète: le type 1 lorsque le pancréas ne fonctionne plus, à ce moment-là, il n’y a plus d’insuline pour transporter le sucre des vaisseaux sanguins vers les cellules et dans le type 2, il y a encore une sécrétion insulinique, mais celle-ci n’est pas suffisante pour amener le sucre d’une façon parfaite aux cellules de notre corps humain.
