This animation describes insulin resistance, an underlying cause of type 2 diabetes. It explains the roles of glucose and the hormone insulin in our body. Symptoms of diabetes are reviewed and various health complications that type 2 diabetes can lead to if left untreated.
Male. Soon to be 56 yrs old in a few days. Ignored the fact that I was pre-diabetic and diabetic for years. Doctors were telling me constantly to take my meds consistently and change my way of eating. They also emphasized exercise. I took these messages half seriously. In April of this year, I hit the 273 lb mark. Scared me. I was taking time off of the job due to my chronic condition. I drank beer, ate my usual bag of salted carbs, bread, bags of candy, fast food meals etc... My blood levels were in the 300's. My blood pressure was way too high. I don't want to die just yet. Got back on a kettle bell routine and re-introduced myself to power walking. FINALLY eliminated salt from my diet. Eating healthy. Suddenly, the weight is dropping with regularity. Checking my sugar levels with regularity. Taking my insulin dosage as prescribed by my doctor. I'm on the right track. Going to add more years to my life.
Great job!
Aiche Jaye still going ?
Hello Aiche,
My name is Joao and I am developer at a startup. I am working on a project to help people with type 2 diabetes feel more in control of managing their condition and want to understand what works well and current pain points. I would love to learn from you by chatting for 10-15 minutes. I do not need any personal health information. We can do this over the phone whenever you are available.
If you are interested, please reach out to me at yourhealthclarity@gmail.com
Thanks for your consideration.
Joao
I am an MD treating diabetes for 30 years, and your presentation is excellent. However it should be pointed out that obesity is not the cause of diabetes, but an aggravator. I have patients who are rail thin. You should talk also about fructose, which is a monosaccharide comprising 50% of sucrose, the sugar that we put in our coffee, and fructose does not need insulin to enter the cell; starches, however, are digested to 100% glucose
As a doctor I hope you are familiar with Dr. Jason Fung’s type 2 diabetes work. As you know the root problem is insulin. He puts his patients on simple fasting and over 90% are cured. Absolutely stunning results!
Finally someone who knows type2 isn't exclusively caused by being overweight. I know type2's who're skinny too. Also, it's not just your diet that can cause high sugar. Some suffer from the Dawn Phenomenon with high morning fasting levels. Also sugar can rise even if you've had nothing to eat. Like in my case, if I get sick or highly stressed my levels run higher than normal no matter what I do and I workout 4-6 days a week.
@@label1877 diabetes isn't cured, only controlled. I wish it were. I workout 4-6 days a week and have A1C average of 5.2 last 3yrs. Initial A1C was 8.6. I'm not cured, only controlled. When I get sick or stressed as I already mentioned, fastimg will do nothing. Sugar will still elevate. Your body can and does produce it's own glucose which can happen in several ways. Glucose can be dumped from the liver, or fat & protein can be broken down into glucose. Type2 is never just as simple as fasting. Best way I've learned to control it is to be active. Type2 is insulin resistance and or pancreas not working as effectively as it used to & not producing enough glucose. U fix the insulin resistance problem by exercising. Exercise increases insulin sensitivity and burn sugar at the same time.
This video is about Type 2 Diabetes, not Type 1.
@@t2dwarrior209 You're probably Type 1. You actually need to get diagnosed by a medical health professional. You can't just diagnose yourself by looking at videos on UA-cam.
I have never had the typical symptoms that showed that I had type 2 diabetes. No thirst, not much pee, just a big belly. After two years I had my blood tested and the result was: type 2. I was apparently been two years already diabetic, but my doctor had looked over the last blood test. Then I was pre-diabetes and I could have stopped it. So always request a copy of your blood test and see for yourself. You have to take care of your own health.
My good advice is: if your belly gets thicker, have your blood tested. If you are older than 45, have your blood tested every year. That way you can take the right medicines in time. You have to take it or you will get the side effects of diabetes.
Your presentation is so clear that even an uneducated can easily understand.
This is an amazingly clear explanation of diabetes. Thank you for making it.
Thank you so much, I'm doing everything i can to learn about my father's recent diagnosis
Excellent!
I have read so many articles to understand diabetes but this one is the best explanation I have ever seen!
Excellent video. Can you please include that there are two sources of glucose? One is from the food we eat, like you correctly pointed out. The second source is from our body; from stored glycogen and, in addition, our livers produce glucose from stored fat and protein. When we are stressed we tend to produce more glucose even in fasting states. So besides diet, exercise and diabetic meds, stress management plays an important role in controlling blood glucose.
Thank you. This will help me in both Nursing School and caring for my grandmother
Good presentation,i am a indian doctor (citadel of dm)for 40years+.i like such presentation where lecture with written information are given
Very clear and easy to follow. Thanks for making this.
I'm not going to lie, the people in the comments are really annoying me. Stop. Being. Rude. If you have a question, then ask nicely. If you don't know anything about this subject, stop giving out advice that could kill someone.
paranoid at the moment, yesterday i had a tingling sensation on my lower back which made my arms feels tingly. it got to the point where i couldn’t focus on anything.
I have diabetes Thank you and you made me feel better lost 45 got 100 to go God bless ChristS love
Thank you for helping me understand my condition better !
kuya sam if they prescribe you Antibiotics , don’t take them because diabetes is just like bacteria but stronger and all antibiotics does is kill bad bad bacteria and good bacteria. So what that means is that your immune system is left alone to fight the disease (bacteria) .your immune system won’t last long. Your best option is too eat herbs such as basil and bacillus subtilis.
@@ej2k_414 why would a doctor prescribe antibiotics to someone with diabetes?
Straight forward and good info. Thanks
Amazing video! My dad and my grand dad died due to complications of type to diabetes now i know what really type to diabetes are thank you so much for this video
Tq so much...great explaination & animation....it helps a lot! :)
Wow, what a clear and amazing explanation! Thank you!
Our pancreas creates insulin, type 2 diabetes, so i think more information regarding dysfunctional pancreas should be given, like chromium deficiency that's all we need along with a class regarding good carbohydrates and bad ones
I think I have this & I'm sad about it :(
it is simple to understanding diabetic type 2 , thank you
My dad has type 2 diabetes :( but without blurred vision and weakness and drowsiness and frequent urination and possibly excessive thirst
It's too informative thankyou for making this video.😊😊
nice and eye catching presantation
Nice and clear explanation great video
How does hyperglycemia damage the blood vessels? Correct me if I'm wrong but is it due to hypertension or are there more complex reasons?
I am type 2 diabetic
Good video. Thanks
You did a really good Job by uploading this video. It helps me for the comming exam in behavioral health. Thank you very much!!!!
Excellent Presentation
Thanks a lot
pretty good thank you
Nice presentation
thanks
Excellent explanation and video, very informative.Thank you
GOOD job
Thanks
Hello
very nice videos
Diabetes runs in the family but my family hasn't had it too severe.
Thank
I will use this to train school staff! Thank you so much!
Thanks for explaining in a best way..
Both my parents have type 2 diabetes...both won't listen to me to cut the sugar...
My Mama cut the sugar a bit everytime her symptoms worsen, and when she's feeling better she'll back to her old habit. She's 62 years old.
While my Papa said that he's old and about to die anyway, so why bother? He's 73 years old. He drinks gallons of tea, coffee, and other commercial sweet drinks, eats a lot of rice, breads, and dried fruit in a day. I love him so mich and wish he would live and be healthy at least 20 years more, but I also sad to see him sulk everytime I hide all the sugars... 😢
I myself love sugar, too. But I know my limit and have a pretty active life style. My blood sugar test ranges from 73 to 125 in a normal day, but once I have it up to 335 because of the full sugary diet I have that day (my doctor said it's still okay because it only happened once). This kinds of videos opened my eyes though, I promise myself to cut down some more from now on...
The problem is that sugar is HIGHLY, HIGHLY addictive, like heroin. It triggers the same centers/receptors in the brain that illicit drugs do. One has to be sick & tired of being sick & tired to go through the hard process of coming off sugars...just like other addicts do. It is possible. I was prediabetic & had my "ah-ha" moment & gave up sugar and went low carb/ketogenic over 7 years ago. It changed my health entirely. I am forever thankful that I made that choice and continue to make it daily. I do it for myself, but mostly, I do it for my family. I will not be ruled by food. I'm sorry for your parents' decisions & that their choices of food-like disease agents over health continue to hurt you.
Suggestion - why not cut down completely on refunded sugars -> sweets, and portion your grains (sugarless bread(sourdough), pasta, rice, cereals)? That would at least limit your glucose intake.
*Mrs. Voldemort* :Buy the plant called "Tacoma Stans"(Yellow bells)and boil 3 leaves for every 8oz glass,then refrigerate it and drink 8oz three times s day for 6 months,you'll notice the difference.Please pass it on so you can help others.
Sugar is NOT the problem, the problem is starches. There's no physiological addiction to sugar like there is for heroin and opiates
How people came to know all this
I'm so thankful for video's that are thorough! If you need help getting your body back into homeostasis so it may correct these issues on it's own, with 100% natural products your doctor will stand behind, I would be happy to help any of you. You don't have to live this way.
I don't know if I have type 2 diabetes but I am always tired, I urinate alot, I am thirsty all the time, and I am weak alot.
Ariana Christianson's life story
Please see a doctor before it's too late...even if you actually don't have diabetes (I hope you don't), you might have other disease...and even if you're actually healthy, at least it's better if you're sure. Pardon my grammar, I hope what I mean is clear, LOL.
maybe try a low carb diet for 6 months and see how it goes.
Ariana, you have always been dealt with incorrect information. I can help to reverse your diabetes for free by making simple dietary changes. Do message me if you are interested.
If you care about your health, stop watching UA-cam and get a physical including blood tests.
I've gone through the same symptoms until I cut off sugar, sodas, candies, all other carbs, corn fructose, pasta, all wheat cakes, bread and rice. In replacement I added a lot of vegetables. Now I'm back to normal and have energy to walk 30 minutes every day. I think you should go to the drs for A1c and a complete blood work.
I’m diabetic like pre diabetes (type 2) and I’m 16 and scared
Tryingcovers did u check it out
my favorite part was where cellular respiration was depicted as a supernova...or micronova I guess
Can this cause weight loss?
I didnt understand.....why the cells ignore the "messenger" insulin?
@ jack daniels watch the video at the following link to understand why the cells ignore the messenger insulin ua-cam.com/video/D2tOgL9uWEE/v-deo.html
good point
My uncle and grandpa have type 2.
Im 15 years old and i have been having several signs of type 2.
vision goes out when i stand up quick.
I cant gain weight.
Most probably not diabetes 2. Seems you have postural hypotension, may be a problem with your suprarenal glands
Fausto Fernandez I got a question, is type 2 diabetes symptoms the same for pre diabetes
too thanks
so clear thanks ....
That’s weird I just watched an ad about diabetes Ooooooooo😱
Interesting but needs an update.
This is epic, what did you use to animate it?
+joey zumwalt Adobe Flash CS 3
It's always genetic if it's type 2. If it's type 1, you can get it by having too much glucose. (I believe)
Not quite. Type one in an autoimmune disorder. Type 2 is due to lifestyle factors such as diet and lack of exercise, it can sometimes be genetic but is usually preventable if you take care of your body.
you can contact great eziza Walter if you have any kind of diabetes so that he can give you a permanent cure. you can contact him via greatezazawalter@gmail.com
you do know what you are talking about so keep quiet okay..
You didn't mention the cause.
Yeah, the video did at 2:46.
I love this life so much and now it's going down terribly due to this curse called type 2 diabetes.
Make healthy lifestyle changes. That's it.
Thnx am diabetes 2
My mom could reversed it! it's possible! with a lot of work and diet you can do it!
The secret of diabetes Plant based diet!
I had Diabetes type 2 and could revert it. Check my channel i'll show what program i followed.
And I still don't understand ☹️
Yes this
Fruits best > jaggary and brown sugar > last white sugar
Its a genetic mutation that was activated as an adaptation to new chemicals introduced in the body.
ok but what makes them unable to work? what foods? dose it just randomly happen?
Sugar is the culprit
My dad is 66 and checked in to emergency complaining for fluid in his lungs boiling and every time he stood up his face, groin, and legs would swell. this has not been a positive father's day.he's a type 2> This is a horrible way to live.
I feel u
Your 66 year old dad wasn't and hasn't been taking care of his type 2,,,That all could have been very much prevented and he could be living much, more healthier... I have a lady friend that's 77 .....She been a diabetic 30 years... she eat right- check her sugar daily ...and has lived a full wonderful life with very ,very ,very little complications.to hardly none at all......yesterday she told me she went for a check up ....Her doctor said shes doing wonderful...You can live a good life if you manage your diabetes !!
I just started metformin...Gonna watch my diet stay away from all SUGAR ..and eat a low fat diet...exercise daily .. join a support group that will HELP you with med eating properly and working out....KEEP THAT SUGAR DOWN You' ll be A OK.. Life gos on..
And not a word about liver.
who's watching this as they are drinking a soda?
But why did your cell become insulin-resistant?
Mutations in the cells
Theo TV I have the same question
Bad genetics
1 69th
A healthy diet and adequate exercise will re-sensitise the 'bad' receptors to
insulin, as a result maing them excellent receptors again. As soon as this is
achieved, insulin can once again get into your cells
however the re-sensitivity isn't permanent and requires constant exercise to retain.
Avoidance of saturated fats will improve the action of insulin receptors, but never 100%
it makes me depressed
Tallyho32 Are you OK?
I have type one diabetes
sameee
This is in no way detailed enough.
Make a 1 hour long video where you describe receptor names, how the bindings happens, which aminoacids partake in the binding. Make it detailed please.
You made this video for all people to understand.
Now make a more detailed one, for people who are interested in learning more indepth knowledge.
2:00 ok no frequent pee no my thirst is fine weakness bitch I can't even sleep easily drowsiness only during math class blurry vision? Eh yes but I had that for a long time and I have glasses
I have diabetes
Hey guys this is not funny this can happen.
Nobody is saying it's funny. This thing causes death.
This world has an imminent problem which started in labs by modifying seeds for fruits and vegetables. In mid 1960's, so called GMO's were at its inception and started to spread domestically and later oversees. Many fruits and vegetables we eat are derived from seeds which were once modified in labs during 1960's. Example, fruits like oranges which are seedless, watermelon which are seadless are all GMO's. These seeds were artificially created and now taken over the world. One of the most toxic GMO's foods you can eat is wheat and corn. Remember one thing that controlling your sugar is the key for well-being. Stop bombarding your blood with hyperglycemia-state overwhelming your pancreas to keep producing insulin. More glucose you have in your blood; more work for pancreas. Regardless of the source of food, the quality of the food is more important. Never consume any food which exceeds 400 calories. Make that a rule of thumb. Try to eat as much as fresh fruits and vegetables although they are less of 100% natural, but at least low caloric intake is more important than bombarding your body with excessive glucose.
Only very Basics
damb this is hard to watch
World should stop producing carbs
Your body needs Carbohydrates to function. Carbohydrates are even found in natural foods. The problem isn't Carbohydrates, it's excessive intake of Carbohydrates and Sugars.
THIS EXPLANATION IT'S THE OLD BELIVE AND IT'S WRONG
Can you elaborate?
Jesús Herrera wdym pls explain
It's not my sister is type 2 so I should know she needs gluco juice and also needs to check her blood everyday to check the sugar
very nice videos
