Helpful Calculations For Diabetics
Diabetes Care published one of the easiest methods for determining insulin needs. For patients with Type 1 and for those Type 2 insulin dependent (assume rapid-acting insulin prior to eating and long-acting once daily), this is easier than counting carbohydrates. During the study this method was formulated on, those conducting the study determined there were similar results from those who performed carbohydrate counting when compared with their new technique. The end result aided in lowering hemoglobin Alc to normal results. To understand this method we assume a fasting blood glucose less than 95 mg/dl, after lunch and dinner a level less than 100 mg/dl, and prior to bed less than 130 mg/dl. By adding the units of insulin taken the day before, an initial daily dose was 50% of that previous day total then adjusted by taking the mean fasting glucose levels. Review the three day fasting glucose levels to determine what adjustment should happen. If the mean was higher than 180 … Read More »
What You Eat Does Matter
Obesity Today Is Huge An increase of obesity has been an ongoing trend in American society. With the definition of obesity defined as a BMI (body mass index) of 30 m2 or larger, it is shocking to see the percentage of Americans who were obese jump almost 2 million people from 2005 to 2007. The number of those individuals with diabetes jumped almost 3 million in the same time frame. With the complications of blindness, kidney failure, heart disease, and potential amputations, it is obvious to see why the United States must take action to correct this trend. Many people must become aware they may not live through their first heart attack.

Lets Talk About Prostate Cancer
The prostate plays a vital role in the male reproductive system. A healthy prostate is about the size of a peach pit and the shape of a walnut. It’s located underneath the bladder, in front of the rectum, and surrounds the urethra, which carries urine and seminal fluid (not simultaneously). Blood vessels and nerves also travel through the prostate tissue. You Should Take Prostate Cancer Seriously Prostate cancer is cancer inside this small gland and is quite common. This cancer is treatable when caught early and is usually found during routine screening. Despite the excellent cure rate, men are particularly frightened of prostate cancer because they see it as a huge threat to their manhood. Many already feel uncomfortable with the screening procedure and are really reluctant to have biopsies and possible surgery. Male hormones (androgens) can cause the prostate to grow, and many men develop benign enlargement of the prostate as they age. An enlarged prostate squeezes the … Read More »
Differentiating Types of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is classified in different ways according to its location and whether it’s metastasized. The following list describes other terms you may hear used to describe breast cancer: Adenocarcinoma: Most breast cancers start in the glandular tissue (lobes and ducts) of the breast; cancers of glandular tissue are called adenocarcinoma. There are two types of adenocarcinoma: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS): DCIS means the cancer is contained within the walls of the ducts and hasn’t spread to other breast tissue or metastasized. This is the most common type of noninvasive breast cancer, accounting for around 20 percent of newly diagnosed cases. Almost all women diagnosed at this stage can be cured. Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS): LCIS begins in the lobules of the breast but hasn’t invaded through to surrounding breast tissue. LCIS isn’t a true cancer; it may be the early stage of cancer or may simply increase a woman’s risk of getting cancer later. Everyone … Read More »
