What to Eat (Swahili) - Diabetes Series

Nini kinafaa kula. By Global Health Media Project: https://globalhealthmedia.org Over thousands of years, people have learned to combine different foods to create healthy ways of eating – with the exception of the modern western diet. The shift to highly processed foods, worldwide, underlies the rise of obesity, diabetes, and other diet-related chronic diseases. Although there is no single ideal diet, this video describes how to eat a healthy diet by eating real whole food – as our families ate before the coming of industrialized food. This video is one of over 30 videos in our series on diabetes prevention and care. The videos are targeted for three audiences: health care workers – to help guide providers in developing countries in good diabetes care; people with diabetes – to improve their knowledge and home care; and the general public – to increase their understanding of diabetes, with the aim of greater awareness of the risks and symptoms, and ways to prevent type 2 diabetes.

Symptoms and Complications of Diabetes

MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: You or someone you know may have been diagnosed with diabetes. This video will show you what it is and why it's important to keep it under control. People can have different symptoms with diabetes. Common symptoms include feeling very hungry, feeling very thirsty, urinating often, fatigue, blurry vision, and slow healing of wounds. People with type 1 diabetes may also experience weight loss. Symptoms of type 1 diabetes usually develop suddenly. They may make a person feel very ill. On the other hand, symptoms of type 2 diabetes usually develop slowly. They may be mild enough so they are hard to notice. Some people have no symptoms. If your high blood sugar level isn't treated, life-threatening complications can result. For example, you can become severely ill with a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis. It's more common in people with type 1 diabetes. Here's how it happens. Because you have little or no insulin in your blood, your cells can't get the sugar they need for energy. As a result, your body turns to fats and proteins for energy. As your body breaks down the fats, certain substances, known as ketone bodies, build up in your blood. This results in a condition called ketosis. If ketones build up to dangerously high levels in your blood, you may develop diabetic ketoacidosis, or DKA. This may result in coma or death. If your blood sugar level drops too low, you may experience a serious complication of diabetes called hypoglycemia. A common way this can happen is by taking too much diabetic medication or not eating. Too much insulin or oral diabetic medication can cause too much sugar to go into your cells. Then your blood sugar level drops down too low. Certain organs, such as the brain, need a constant energy supply to work properly. Because the brain's main source of energy is sugar, it's the first organ affected by lower sugar levels. When your brain cells, called neurons, don't get enough sugar, they start to malfunction. Symptoms such as nervousness, shakiness, and confusion can result. If your blood sugar keeps dropping, your brain does not have enough energy to work properly. This can result in seizures or diabetic coma. If your blood sugar level remains high over time, long-term health problems can occur. They include heart and blood vessel disease, stroke, blindness, nerve damage, kidney disease, and amputation of a foot or leg. If you have questions about diabetes or the medications for it, speak with your doctor. It is important to take your medications as directed by your doctor. Tell him or her about any side effects you have. #BloodSugar #DiabetesSymptoms #DiabetesComplications ANH16176

Fever (Medical Definition) | Quick Explainer Video

What is Fever? We created this video to cover the medical definition and provide a brief overview of this topic. 💥Respiratory Therapy Definitions [Glossary] ➜ ➜ ➜ https://bit.ly/3g6s4Pj ➡️ Fever The human body operates within a very tightly controlled range of temperatures, typically around 97.7 to 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Any change from this narrow range can disrupt the body's various metabolic processes. Fever usually occurs when the body's thermostat, located in the hypothalamus, gets reset to a higher temperature due to various factors. This increased set point triggers processes such as muscle contraction (shivering) and increased metabolism to produce more heat and maintain the higher temperature. ➡️ Symptoms Fever is often associated with other symptoms such as headache, sweating, chills, muscle aches, weakness, and loss of appetite. The fever itself is not a disease but is usually a symptom of an underlying condition. As such, treatment usually involves addressing the underlying cause. However, in situations where the fever is causing discomfort or is dangerously high, medications such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen may be used to lower the body temperature. While fever often indicates a common illness like a cold or flu, it can also be a symptom of more serious conditions such as pneumonia, meningitis, or sepsis. A persistent fever could also indicate an ongoing bacterial or viral infection, an autoimmune disease, or even certain types of cancer. In children, fever can often cause anxiety for parents, but it is important to remember that fever is the body's natural response to infection. However, extremely high fever, especially when accompanied by other symptoms like difficulty breathing, severe headache, or a stiff neck, can be a sign of a potentially serious condition and should prompt immediate medical attention. ➡️ Benefits A fever can be beneficial as well. The increase in body temperature can speed up the activity of the immune system, making it more efficient at fighting off infections. In some cases, a fever may be intentionally induced as a form of treatment. This approach, known as pyrotherapy, was once used in the treatment of certain diseases, such as syphilis, before the advent of antibiotics. Fever is a complex response of the body to a variety of conditions, most commonly infections. While it can be a cause for concern, especially if it is high or persistent, it is typically a beneficial sign that the body is actively fighting off an illness. Its management should focus not only on the fever itself but, more importantly, on identifying and treating its underlying cause. 💥Respiratory Therapy Definitions [Glossary] ➜ ➜ ➜ https://bit.ly/3g6s4Pj ————— 📘 FREE STUFF ▪ Free Cheat Sheets 👉 https://bit.ly/3IKenWk ▪ TMC Practice Exam 👉 http://bit.ly/2XlwASL 📗 PASS THE TMC EXAM ▪ TMC Test Bank 👉 https://bit.ly/3QNqwLX ▪ TMC Exam Hacks 👉 https://bit.ly/3iLmVS2 ▪ Daily TMC Practice Questions 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C ▪ TMC Bundle (Save $) 👉 https://bit.ly/3CWhdUn 📕 MORE FROM RTZ ▪ Test Bank (Free) 👉 http://bit.ly/2Kp73ln ▪ Glossary 👉 https://bit.ly/3g6s4Pj ▪ About Us 👉 http://bit.ly/2Xgk5YH ▪ Testimonials 👉 http://bit.ly/2x7b5Gl 🌐FOLLOW US ▪ Instagram 👉 http://bit.ly/2FhF0jV ▪ Twitter 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZsS6T1 ▪ Facebook 👉 http://bit.ly/2MSEejt ▪ Pinterest 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZwVLPw ▪ Rumble 👉 https://bit.ly/3p7IS0H ▪ LinkedIn 👉 https://bit.ly/41uO2lx 🚑MEDICAL DISCLAIMER This content is for educational and informational purposes only.
