Pooling both direct and indirect evidence on AET, RT and CT
via meta - analysis demonstrated that CT was the most efficacious exercise intervention regarding its impact on HbA1c, fasting
glucose, good cholesterol,
blood fats, diastolic
blood pressure and bodyweight.
It consists of a
glucose monitor, which checks the
blood sugar
via a sensor under the skin, and two pumps, also connected to the patient, one supplying insulin and the other glucagon.
In order to establish this, the
blood sugar value has to be determined
via a
blood sample and the
glucose concentration on the skin measured.
Blood testing is the standard option for checking
glucose levels, but a new technology could allow non-invasive testing
via a contact lens that samples
glucose levels in tears.
In Ames dwarrf, Snell Dwarf mice, Klotho mice, GHKO mice who have little IGF and GH; and live longer than wild - type; we see that indeed insulin and
glucose / nutrient / energy pathways (which create oxidative stress through excessive nutrient
via elevated glycation
blood glucose creating high glycated albumin and hemoglobin), that aging is acted on by IGF through hormones, GFs, GHs, acting on insulin signals, which act on survival genes (DAF / SIRT / FOXO).
Conversely, when
blood glucose levels are low, hepatocytes respond to glucagon and glucocorticoids by decreasing glycogen storage and producing
glucose via gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis.
So we have just the — the general sugar kind of mechanism with it's table, you know, your sucrose, fructose, kinda
glucose thing that's increasing insulin and that's gonna hold on to more fluid and more sodium, and that will increase
blood pressure
via that way.
To aggravate the situation, when your
blood sugars are too high, your kidneys will try to remove some of the
glucose via urine.
Here is a view of
blood glucose levels in normal people as measured by Professor JS Christiansen (from Ned Kock
via CarbSane):
The outcome variables have been diverse from performance variables to measurements such as: fasting
blood work,
glucose tolerance tests, Adrenal Stress Indices, or even body fat percentage and distribution
via BODPOD, MRI, and DEXA.
• Elevated nitric oxide levels • Heightened muscle pumps • Increased nutrient delivery • Improved
blood oxygen carrying capacity • Quicker recovery between sets
via the accelerated clearance of metabolic waste products • Reduced
blood pressure • Pro-sexual effects • Enhanced
glucose uptake
But you might think protein does convert to
glucose via GNG but protein also induces a splash of insulin which is why
blood glucose doesn't rise.
The problem is that this increased
blood glucose is achieved
via insulin resistance; insulin becomes less effective and glycogen store insulin - receptors downregulate.
Consider the paper mentioned above finding that diabetics who fasted until noon experienced an exaggerated
blood glucose response to food
via inhibition of normal insulin signaling.
As a result, fructose is transported directly to the liver
via the small intestine, and has a very little immediate effect on
blood glucose levels.
Whether that
glucose comes from carbohydrates, from protein
via gluconeogenesis, or from glycerol (a byproduct of fatty acid metabolism), excess amounts in the
blood stream that aren't immediately used are transported by insulin to muscle and liver cells and get converted to glycogen.
The group that consumed the higher amounts of chia seeds were shown
via blood testing to have lower
glucose levels.
If
blood glucose levels are kept low
via a low carb diet (plant based without refined grains fall under this category) diabetes symptoms won't manifest.
This occurs
via at least two mechanisms: 1) The increased carb intake maintains
blood glucose and insulin at a higher level (inhibiting cortisol release).
It is now well established that the adipocyte - derived hormone leptin, which is well known for its central role in body weight regulation in part
via its control over thermogenesis, 52 — 55 also plays an important role in
blood glucose homeostasis and in the protection of insulin - sensitive tissues against excessive ectopic lipid storage by regulating the partitioning of fatty acid away from storage towards oxidation.
Byetta mimics the effects of GLP - 1 which causes an increase in insulin secretion
via the incretin effect and thus,
blood glucose is lowered.
Unfortunately, the leading exercise physiology textbook also claims a «low - carbohydrate diet sets the stage for a significant loss of lean tissue as the body recruits amino acids from muscle to maintain
blood glucose via gluconeogenesis [2].»
The negative effects seem to lie in the capacity of some foods / nutrients to stimulate proliferative pathways that in turn stimulate development of acne — suspect foods include those with a high glycaemic load and milk.11, 43, 44 Other evidence comes from several studies reporting that the prevalence of acne varies significantly between different populations and is substantially lower in non-Westernized populations that follow traditional diets, 45 a common factor among these traditional diets being a low glycaemic load.46 Various studies have provided evidence that high - glycaemic - load diets are implicated in the aetiology of acne through their capacity to stimulate insulin, androgen bioavailability and insulin - like growth factor - 1 (IGF - 1) activity, whereas the beneficial effects of low - glycaemic - load diets, apart from weight and
blood glucose levels, also include improved skin quality.44 The clinical and experimental evidence does in fact suggest ways in which insulin can increase androgen production and affect
via induction of steroidogenic enzymes, 47 the secretion by the pituitary gland of gonadotropin - releasing hormone and the production of sex hormone - binding globulin.48 Insulin is also able to reduce serum levels of IGF - binding protein - 1 increasing the effect of IGF - 1.49 These insulin - mediated actions can therefore influence diverse factors that underlie the development of acne such as:
Goals of management include correcting fluid deficits and electrolyte balance associated with severe dehydration, reducing
blood glucose via insulin therapy, correcting the hyperglycemic, hyperosmolar state, and managing concurrent diseases.
Sugar is carried to the body cells
via blood in the form of
glucose.
As
blood glucose levels increase,
glucose also increases within the aqueous humor,
glucose readily diffuses across the lens capsule, an aldose reductase pathway converts
glucose to sorbitol, sorbitol accumulates within the lens as it can not diffuse through lens cell membranes, the osmotic gradient increases, water enters the lens and irreversibly changes the lens structure
via lens fiber swelling and rupture, vacuole formation, and clinically evident cataract.
Examples of procedures would be toenail removal, I&D, lesion removal, and removal of foreign body Perform point of care testing to include
blood glucose, urine dips, hemoccult, rapid strep test and hemoglobin
via finger stick.
