Types of diabetes

• Type 1 – Caused when the body attacks itself by mistake (autoimmune reaction), which stops your body from making insulin. Symptoms develop quickly and it is usually diagnosed in children, teens and young adults.
• Type 2 – Your body does not use insulin well and is unable to maintain a healthy blood sugar level. It is a more common type of diabetes and is usually diagnosed in adults. Symptoms are not noticeable, so it is important to keep your blood sugar levels in check!
• Gestational Diabetes – Develops in pregnant women who never had diabetes. Your baby could be at risk of health problems.

Reduce the risk of diabetes

Replace refined sugar and carbs with Fruits Enzyme, where it is a natural sweetener without increasing the risk of diabetes.
• A detailed study of 37 cases found that people consuming excess amount of sugar and refined carbs were 40% more likely to develop diabetes.

Work Out Regularly

• Increasing physical activity, sweating and keeping active is the best way to prevent diabetes. Exercise increases insulin sensitivity of your cells and hence less insulin is required to regulate blood sugar levels.

Quit smoking

• Smoking not only contribute to the risk of diabetes, but also other serious health conditions such as heart disease, cancer, prostate and digestive tract.
• There are also researches linking smoking to risk to exposure to type 2 diabetes.
• An analysis shows several case studies whereby average smokers are at risk of diabetes by 44% and 61% for those who have smoked more than 20 cigarettes daily.
