<p>It seems that everyone is concerned with healthy living these days. This is a excellent thing; it is vital to be concerned with your health and to look for better strategies to improve your life. On the other hand, it also seems like everyone has a quick solution for healthy living, for a hefty fee of course. It seems at times that you can’t turn on the television or open a magazine without seeing a celebrity or doctor trying to get you to buy their new book detailing the latest miracle diet that will change your life, whether it is fresh ground wheat grass or a daily tin of Brazil nuts. The reality is that these diets are unnecessary. Healthy living is available to everyone, and does not depend on buying the latest diet book or the most expensive vitamins. All that you need to do is to start making healthy decisions.

World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes three forms of diabetes mellitus, ie type 1, type 2, diabetes and gestasional (occurs during pregnancy).
Diabetes mellitus type 1
Diabetes mellitus type 1 – first called insulin-dependent diabetes (IDDM, insulin-dependent insulin “), or diabetic children, characterized by loss of beta cells produce insulin in the islands Langerhans pancreas so that the lack of insulin occurs in the body. This type of diabetes can be suffered by children and adults.
Severe obesity is a serious medical condition experienced by people with a body mass index of 40 or above. Previously called morbid obesity, it affects an estimated six million American adults, or about 1 in 33 of the adult population. Associated with a range of complex metabolic disorders including type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance syndrome and raised blood-fats, plus other weight-related health problems, this condition should not be confused with overweight (BMI > 25) or regular obesity (BMI > 30). It is a serious disease requiring professional help.
Teenage obesity is rising significantly throughout the world. Teenage obesity is slowly gaining the dimension of an epidemic. At least 14-15% of the word population suffers from teenage obesity.

Obesity can be due to:
• eating too much
• eating too much of the “incorrect” things – foods heavily laden with sugar salts and fats and not enough of the “excellent” things – vegetables, fruit, proteins and roughage
• insufficient exercise
• toxicity due to food sensitivity where the body wraps up the toxin in stout and stores it away
• not eating enough – the body going into famine mode and storing stout for survival – or not eating regularly enough to ensure that blood sugars do not fluctuate too sharply

Recent hopes have proved to be more hype in the search for a cure for diabetes. Though there may indeed be a cure for diabetes down the road for type 1 diabetics, it is still a long way down that road. Recent research for type 2 diabetes, but, holds more promise of real hope.
Type 2 diabetes is for all intents and purposes a different disease than type 1. In type 1 diabetes there is no production of insulin. Insulin works as a “key” to unlock the cells so that the glucose in the bloodstream can go into the cells where it is needed for energy. To prevent the buildup of blood sugar in their bloodstream, type 1 diabetics must inject insulin as part of their treatment and therapy.

Most people know that diabetes is about blood sugar (too much or too small of it), and that it has something to do with a weird substance called “insulin”. They might see someone inject insulin, usually a clear liquid that looks like water. But what is insulin and what does it do? Why do some diabetics
need to inject insulin?
Insulin is made in the organ of your body called the pancreas. The pancreas is nearly as mysterious a thing to many people as insulin. We generally know a lot more about the heart, lungs and kidneys than we do about the pancreas.

Are you a type 2 diabetic and using insulin? Oh, if only diabetes control were simpler! If we could just eat reasonable meals and cover what we eat with a small insulin, we could live with that. Indeed, many type 2 diabetics do live with it. But the truth is, it is entirely unacceptable. And here’s why.
Type 2 diabetes is all about insulin resistance. Insulin resistance all but defines what type 2 diabetes is. Our problem is not that we don’t produce enough insulin (which is the problem for type 1), but that our cells have become resistant to the “unlocking” mechanism of insulin. Glucose in the bloodstream does not enter the cells because the cells resist the insulin key to let the glucose in.
