Global Symbol of Diabetes

Apply 3ml SankaraJyothi Herbal Oil on the scalp half an hour (if possible one hour) before bath. Use hot or cold water to bath as per individual preference. Symptoms of diabetes like fatigue, lack of sleep, lethargy etc are found to subside. If on an existing treatment regimen for diabetes, continue them according to prescriptions. Test blood glucose after 30 days of use of the oil. Thereafter regularly monitor blood glucose, and on improvement, in consultation with your physician, you can reduce the dose of drugs/ insulin injection and eventually stop them. Continue using SankraJyothi Herbal Oil for control of diabetes.??
Regular usage of SankraJyothi Herbal Oil has shown to reduce the incidence of diabetic complications, both local (diabetic ulcer) and systematic (renal, cardiovascular and ocular). During the course, the patient should continue the diet restrictions they were following.

Those suffering from asthma, tonsillitis and sinusitis should consult our doctor before using the oil.

Those on insulin injection should have their blood glucose checked every 15-20 days and make necessary dose alterations in consultation with their regular practitioner.

What is diabetes?

Diabetes is a disorder of metabolism???the way the body uses digested food for growth and energy. Most of the food people eat is broken down into glucose, the form of sugar in the blood. Glucose is the main source of fuel for the body.

After digestion, glucose passes into the bloodstream, where it is used by cells for growth and energy. For glucose to get into cells, insulin must be present. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, a large gland behind the stomach.

When people eat, the pancreas automatically produces the right amount of insulin to move glucose from blood into the cells. In people with diabetes, however, the pancreas either produces little or no insulin, or the cells do not respond appropriately to the insulin that is produced. Glucose builds up in the blood, overflows into the urine, and passes out of the body in the urine. Thus, the body loses its main source of fuel even though the blood contains large amounts of glucose.

What are the types of diabetes?

The three main types of diabetes are
Type 1 diabetes
Type 2 diabetes
Gestational diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. An autoimmune disease results when the body???s system for fighting infection???the immune system???turns against a part of the body. In diabetes, the immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. The pancreas then produces little or no insulin. A person who has type 1 diabetes must take insulin daily to live.

At present, scientists do not know exactly what causes the body???s immune system to attack the beta cells, but they believe that autoimmune, genetic, and environmental factors, possibly viruses, are involved. Type 1 diabetes accounts for about 5 to 10 percent of diagnosed diabetes in the United States. It develops most often in children and young adults but can appear at any age.

Symptoms of type 1 diabetes usually develop over a short period, although beta cell destruction can begin years earlier. Symptoms may include increased thirst and urination, constant hunger, weight loss, blurred vision, and extreme fatigue. If not diagnosed and treated with insulin, a person with type 1 diabetes can lapse into a life-threatening diabetic coma, also known as diabetic ketoacidosis.

Type 2 Diabetes
The most common form of diabetes is type 2 diabetes. About 90 to 95 percent of people with diabetes have type 2. This form of diabetes is most often associated with older age, obesity, family history of diabetes, previous history of gestational diabetes, physical inactivity, and certain ethnicities. About 80 percent of people with type 2 diabetes are overweight.

Type 2 diabetes is increasingly being diagnosed in children and adolescents, especially among African American, Mexican American, and Pacific Islander youth.

When type 2 diabetes is diagnosed, the pancreas is usually producing enough insulin, but for unknown reasons the body cannot use the insulin effectively, a condition called insulin resistance. After several years, insulin production decreases. The result is the same as for type 1 diabetes???glucose builds up in the blood and the body cannot make efficient use of its main source of fuel. The symptoms of type 2 diabetes develop gradually. Their onset is not as sudden as in type 1 diabetes. Symptoms may include fatigue, frequent urination, increased thirst and hunger, weight loss, blurred vision, and slow healing of wounds or sores. Some people have no symptoms.

Gestational Diabetes??
Some women develop gestational diabetes late in pregnancy. Although this form of diabetes usually disappears after the birth of the baby, women who have had gestational diabetes have a 40 to 60 percent chance of developing type 2 diabetes within 5 to 10 years. Maintaining a reasonable body weight and being physically active may help prevent development of type 2 diabetes.

About 3 to 8 percent of pregnant women in the United States develop gestational diabetes. As with type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes occurs more often in some ethnic groups and among women with a family history of diabetes. Gestational diabetes is caused by the hormones of pregnancy or a shortage of insulin. Women with gestational diabetes may not experience any symptoms.

Diabetes in Youth
The SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth multicenter study, funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has determined that Based on data from 2002 to 2003, a total of 15,000 youth in the United States were newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes each year. In addition, about 3,700 youth were newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes each year.

Non-Hispanic white youth had the highest rate of new cases of type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes was rarely diagnosed among youth younger than 10 years of age.

Who gets diabetes?
Diabetes is not contagious. People cannot ???catch??? it from each other. However, certain factors can increase the risk of developing diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs equally among males and females but is more common in whites than in nonwhites. Data from the World Health Organization???s Multinational Project for Childhood Diabetes indicate that type 1 diabetes is rare in most African, American Indian, and Asian populations. However, some northern European countries, including Finland and Sweden, have high rates of type 1 diabetes. The reasons for these differences are unknown. Type 1 diabetes develops most often in children but can occur at any age.

Type 2 diabetes is more common in older people, especially in people who are overweight, and occurs more often in African Americans, American Indians, some Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islander Americans, and Hispanics/Latinos. National survey data in 2007 indicate a range in the prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes in various populations ages 20 years or older:

Age 20 years or older: 23.5 million, or 10.7 percent, of all people in this age group have diabetes.
Age 60 years or older: 12.2 million, or 23.1 percent, of all people in this age group have diabetes.
Men: 12.0 million, or 11.2 percent, of all men ages 20 years or older have diabetes.
Women: 11.5 million, or 10.2 percent, of all women ages 20 years or older have diabetes.
Non-Hispanic whites: 14.9 million, or 9.8 percent, of all non-Hispanic whites ages 20 years or older have diabetes.
Non-Hispanic blacks: 3.7 million, or 14.7 percent, of all non-Hispanic blacks ages 20 years or older have diabetes.
