One of the girls was chubby and the other was skinny, the boy was right in the middle with size. The boy scarlette didn’t want because he was a little too shy, so the tough decision was between the two girls. We couldn’t decide…

in United States including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity amputations. (Kelly, n.d.). Diabetes has affected more than 12 million people in the United States alone. 85% of individuals diagnosed with diabetes have Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in United States (ADA, 2014). Early detection and life style modifications are main factors to help control T2DM. This paper will offer an insight into the article “Exenatide QW: A new treatment option for Type2 diabetes offering…

The concept of youth is like a double edged blade. On one side I have the feeling of invincibility on the other hand I have the inevitability of time. Being young could be deceiving; it could mean we do foolish things at times, or that we could be carless of our actions. We don’t think of the consequences. Because we live in the moment. It may not always be easy to make the right choices. We may pick or do certain actions just because it’s convenient at the time. I am well aware of all the poor…

Although regular exercise has a positive impact on both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes as it improves blood glucose balance, it appears to be more beneficial to the people with Type 2 Diabetes. Regular exercise helps to reduce weight and to minimise the risk of coronary heart disease. Regular exercise increases insulin sensitivity and also improves glucose tolerance.…

lacking enough insulin to be used as soon as it is available in the body. As the body continues to undergo this process, one will become insulin resistant causing the pancreas to produce less insulin (Web MD, Diabetes: Differences Between Type 1 and 2 - Topic Overview, 2014).…

The enzyme, succinyl coenzyme A synthetase, acts on the conversion of the succinyl group succinate. A decrease in the ATP production of the mitochondria may occur if there is a deficiency of this enzyme. The decrease is seen during the phosphorylation of succinyl CoA to succinate. With this decrease, the cells would produce lactic acid in order to get ATP leading the cell to be non-functional. The deficiency of the enzyme, and the increase in lactic acid causes fatal infantile lactic acid…

Diabetic diet is a diet that consists of some restrictions based on the dietary rules set for a diabetic. Diabetes is a medical condition where the production of insulin by pancreas is zero or the production is resisted. Insulin helps the cells to receive the glucose that's present in the blood. Most of the cells work towards converting the glucose in to energy. When there is no insulin, the glucose tends to remain in the blood stream and then builds up. The situation can be dangerous. The…
