Candida Diet Treatment – The Truth About the Diet With Caution Words!

Candida diet treatment is what you need to cure your candida. Yeast thing is real bad, many people say that and I know it. It is enough to drive a person crazy. I have a friend, John who has candida for 3 months now. He is still confused though from the information he obtained from the internet. Some of them say no sugar, then some say no dairy. Others say no bread. Still others recommend herbal tea. He also has heard hamburger is bad too.

He asks my suggestion. Does he need to do all those things? That is why he was trying to get someone to give him some recipes or a diet to go on. Right now he avoiding all sugar and he is on Diflucan suspension 200mg per day and Nystatin Suspension.

For dinner last night he had a salad with Ranch dressing, Ham, Baked Potato w/ sour cream and a brown and serve roll with water. For lunch he had a Hamburger with no bun, some potato salad and water. He asks me whether the foods are bad or not. If you have similar condition with this, this is my answer.

You will probably find that there is sugar in all salad dressings and that includes the potato salad, if you got it in a tin or carton whatever. Nor can you make your own and add mayo because all mayos in jars contain sugar. I speak as someone who has looked at the labels on all salad dressings and find that all contain sugar.

Hamburger is fine. All vegetables are fine. Wholewheat bread only, I also check the labels on the bread and found that most had sugar in, so read everything!…

1. Diabetes

2. Diabetes and Gestational diabetes.

3. Hyperglycemia which is the ultimate outcome for all the three types of diabetes.Pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus is complicated, as the disease is characterized by diverse etiologies but share some related signs,symptoms and complications.

Meaning of pathophysiology

Pathophysiology means the learning of alteration seen in natural mechanical, bodily, and biochemical functions that are maybe caused by a disease or as a  result of an irregular syndrome. The pathophysiology of any given ailment or syndrome give details to  its source,symptoms and effects

Pathophysiology and Diabetes Mellitus

Pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus (all types) is connected to the hormone insulin, which is concealed by the beta cells of the pancreas. This hormone is responsible for keeping the glucose level in the blood. It also allows the body cells to use glucose as the major energy source. though, in a diabetic person, due to the improper insulin metabolism, the body cells and tissues do not utilize the glucose from the blood and as a result of that,it raise the level of hyperglycemia..Within some period of time, elevated glucose level in the bloodstream can lead to critical condition, such as eye disorders, cardiovascular diseases, kidney injury and nerve problems.

In type 1, the pancreas cannot produce sufficient amount of insulin hormone needed by the body. The pathophysiology of type 1 diabetes propose that it is an autoimmune disease, in which the body’s own immune system produces secretion of substances that attack the beta cells of the pancreas. As a result, the pancreas give off little or no insulin. The type 1 is more familiar with children and young adults between 20 years. For the reason that it is common among young folks and insulin hormone is used for treatment, the type 1 diabetes is also known as (IDDM) meaning Insulin Dependent Dabetes Mellitus.

The type 2 diabetes mellitus is a normal way to manufacture of insulin hormone except that the body cells are resistant to the reason that the body cells and tissues are not sensitive to insulin, glucose stays in the bloodstream. It is ordinarily noticeable by middle-aged adults about 40 years or more.Since the  insulin is not required for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus,so it is regarded as (Adult Onset Diabetes) or (NIIDM) meaning Non-insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus. 

On the other hand,gestational diabetes occurs between pregnant women. It is as well triggered due to rise and fall of the hormonal level throughout often,the blood glucose level come back to where it supposed to be after the baby is born.
