Front 1

B-cells

Back 1

which is the results of the body's immune system destroying pancreatic.

Front 2

body mass index BMI

Back 2

most widely used clinical standard to estimate obesity.

Front 3

diabetes mellitus

Back 3

simply diabetes is disease characterized by high blood glucose levels resulting from wither an inadequate production of insulin by the pancreas and inability of insulin to facilitate the transport of glucose into the cells, or both.

Front 4

hyperinsulinemia

Back 4

high blood levels of insulin and insulin resistance appear to be the important threads linking these disorders possibly through insulin-mediated sympathetic nervous system stimulation.

Front 5

impaired glucose tolerance

Back 5

a plasma glucose level of between 100 and 125 mg/dL again following an 8 hr fast .

Front 6

insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus

Back 6

also like type 1 diabetes.

Front 7

insulin resistance

Back 7

the condition in which a normal insulin concentration in the blood produces a less than norma biological response.

Front 8

insulin sensitivity

Back 8

related term and provides an index of the effectiveness of a given insulin concentration in the blood.

Front 9

lower body (gynoid) obesity

Back 9

pear shaped female weight gain pattern.

Front 10

non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitys

Back 10

aka type 2 diabetes

Front 11

obesity

Back 11

the condition of having an excessive amount of body fat.

Front 12

overweight

Back 12

a body weight that exceeds the normal or standard weight for a particular person based on height and frame size.

Front 13

prediabetes

Back 13

refers to the condition in those who have impaired fasting glucose impaired glucose tolerance or both.

Front 14

thermic effect of a meal

Back 14

represents the increase in the metabolic rate that is associated with the digestion absorption transport metabolism and storage of ingested food.

Front 15

thermic effect of activity

Back 15

simply the energy expended above the RMR to accomplish a given task or activity whether it is combing one;s hair or running a 10 km race.

Front 16

type 1 diabetes

Back 16

caused by the inability of the pancreas to produce sufficient insulin as a result of failure.

Front 17

type 2 diabetes

Back 17

the result of the ineffectiveness of insulin to facilitate the transport of glucose into the cells and is a result of insulin resistance.

Front 18

upper body (android) obesity

Back 18

apple shaped , male pattern weight gain.
