Wow this is so insightful never knew such could happen during pregnancy. Please whats the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the pancreas produces little to no insulin and therefore require insulin therapy this typically develops in childhood.
Type 2 diabetes is an Insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion, often linked to lifestyle factors like obesity. Pancreas may still produce insulin, but not enough and it can be managed through lifestyle changes, oral meds, or insulin treatment.
Hmmm just sad what we consume affects our health. my mum is type2 and she complains a lot about how her legs are so stiff sometimes, i cant really explain it and it pains her a lot but I keep telling her she need to walk around with it because if you don’t exercise i, it will get even worst, one good thing is she’s very active with chores. And I introduced her to intermittent fasting although her BMI is intact she isn’t overweight.but she’s on medication everyday hmm.
Don't worry your mum will be fine just advice her not to do strenuous chores or work that will make her injure herself because if she is wounded that wound will spread over that area and become gangrenous if medical intervention is not given early.
Also advise her to take lots of vegetables in her meals and avoid too much sugary or salty meals but she can take it in a little quantity if she wish. Encourage your mum to visits her doctor regularly, not once in a while because this will go along way to improve her health and wellness. My regards to your mum.
Thanks so much for this health tips i will take this to her Have a blessed evening dear 🫶🏻
