Gestational Diabetes

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 15:36:36 +0000

Gestational diabetes or gestational diabetes mellitus, GDM is a condition in which women without previously diagnosed diabetes exhibit high blood glucose levels during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes generally has few symptoms and it is most commonly diagnosed by screening during pregnancy. Diagnostic tests detect inappropriately high levels of glucose in blood samples. Gestational diabetes affects 3-10% of pregnancies, depending on the population studied. No specific cause has been identified, but it is believed that the hormones produced during pregnancy increase a woman’s resistance to insulin, resulting in impaired glucose tolerance. Babies born to mothers with gestational diabetes are at increased risk of problems typically such as being large for gestastional age which may lead to delivery complications, low blood sugar, and jaundice. Gestational diabetes is a treatable condition and women who have adequate control of glucose levels can effectively decrease these risks.

As a bodybuilder, you try to avoid sugars. Excessive sugar intake has been linked to insulin resistance, carb cravings, and bodyfat accumulation, among other things. So sucrose, or plain table sugar, is out. Fructose, while a long-lasting source of energy, has been shown in clinical studies to create gastrointestinal (GI) distress. Take too much fructose and it won’t sit well in your stomach. For optimal results, you need Carbo Plus. Carbo Plus doesn’t contain any inferior sucrose or fructose. Instead, you get glucose polymers and maltodextrin extracted from premium grain sources. Carbo Plus is unflavored and unsweetened, and each serving loads you up with 55g of pure energy. Slowly blend 1 scoop of Carbo Plus into 4-6 oz of your favorite beverage of choice. For best results use at least twice daily. 1 to 3 scoops should be consumed within 2 hours after completion of your training or competition. Please consult your physician before starting any exercise or nutritional program. If you have diabetes, hypoglycemia or are under a physician’s care for any reason, please consult your physician before using this product. Use this product as a supplement to your normal diet, not as a sole source of nutrition. 100% Pure high performance complex carbohydrates (consisting of granulated medium length complex carbohydrates (glucose polymers) extracted from premium grain sources and maltodextrin). Made in GMP facility that processes milk, soy, egg, and peanut.

Insulin Resistance and Heart

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most prevalent metabolic disorders in the world, and in fact in many regions in the world it is actually the most common metabolic disorder. The role of Insulin resistance (IR) in cardiovascular diseases is unclear and deserves further investigation. The main objective of this study was to explore whether there is an association between IR and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type 2 diabetes mellitus. We found significant differences among the patients in groups with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), IGT and diabetes regarding HOMA-IR and QUICKI (P

Hans Nieper, MD, was a well known innovator of Active Mineral Transport, the use of specific amino acid chelators to deliver minerals to specific sites in the body. He identified aspartate and orotate as active mineral transport chelators, providing unprecedented rates of mineral absorption and yielding unique therapeutic benefits.Potassium orotate is used to treat symptoms of magnesium deficiency: diabetes, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, and heart disease. Nieper combined potassium and magnesium orotates to treat cardiovascular diseases. Other applications include wound healing, immune enhancement, depression and anxiety.
