What is diabetes mellitus type two? How can you avoid being diagnosed with this disorder?

It is a metabolic disorder that people usually develop in their adult years. It means that you have high blood glucose and insulin deficiency.

There are two different things that could be happening with your insulin levels. Your body may not be producing enough insulin on its own to keep up with your diet or the cells in your body are ignoring it.

When you eat food, you put it into your mouth to first break it up into smaller pieces. The smaller pieces of food then enter into the rest of your body and your stomach and intestines break down all of the sugars and starches into glucose.

Glucose is the basic fuel for the cells in your body and insulin is the transporter that takes the sugar from the blood into your cells. When that is not working, the glucose builds up in the blood and does not get into the cells which lead to diabetes complications.

How can you know if you have this disorder? There are some symptoms to look for and it is important to note that type one is different from type two.

When your nerves and arteries harden, it leads to decreased sensation and bad blood circulation especially in your feet. This causes more infections and ulcers which raise the risk of amputation.

Cutting your toenails can be a dangerous thing to do because if you cut it down too low, you can start bleeding and get an infection. Infections in the feet tend to take a long time to heal and may not heal properly if you do not take care of it the right way.
