ANO ANG DIABETES MELLITUS?

Ang Diabetes Mellitus ay isang pang-habang buhay na sakit kung saan mas mataas sa normal ang level ng asukal sa dugo.

Nangyayari ito dahil sa problema sa insulin.

ANO NAMAN ANG INSULIN?
Ang insulin ay isang hormone o kemikal na ginagawa ng ating katawan para magamit natin ang asukal mula sa mga kinakain natin.

Kapag nagkaroon ng problema sa paggawa o paggamit ng insulin, nananatili lamang sa ating dugo ang asukal at hindi nagagamit ng ating katawan sa paggawa ng enerhiya.

ALAM MO BA NA MAY 3 PANGUNAHING URI NG DIABETES MELLITUS?

(1) TYPE 1 DIABETES MELLITUS

Ang pancreas o lapay ay hindi makagawa ng insulin dahil sa autoimmunity

Kung saan nilalabanan at sinisira ng sariling immune system ang mga cells na gumagawa ng insulin.

Ito ay karaniwang nakikita sa mga bata, teenagers, o young adults.

(2) TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Ang pancreas o lapay ay nakakagawa ng insulin PERO...

hindi ito sapat o hindi ito gumagana nang maayos

Ito ay may kaugnayan sa iba't ibang isyung pangkalusugan gaya ng pagkain na mataas sa asukal at cholesterol, kakulangan sa ehersisyo, o nasa lahi

(3) GESTATIONAL DIABETES

Ito ay may kaugnayan sa pagbubuntis at gumagaling din pagkatapos manganak.

Pero mas mataas ang tsansa ng mga pasyenteng ito na magkaroon ng Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

ANO-ANO ANG MGA SINTOMAS NG DIABETES MELLITUS?
1. Palaging naiihi o sobrang dalas na pag ihi.
2. Madalas bumangon sa gabi para umihi
3. Palaging nauuhaw
4. Palaging nagugutom
5. Biglang pagpayat
6. Pakiramdam na laging pagod o walang enerhiya
7. Tinutusok tusok na pakiramdam sa kamay at paa

ANO-ANO ANG MGA POSIBLENG KOMPLIKASYON NG DIABETES MELLITUS?
1. Sakit sa puso
2. Pagkasira ng kidneys na maaaring mauwi sa dialysis
3. Pagkabulag
4. Pagkawala ng pakiramdam. Kaya kapag nagkasugat, maaaring hindi ito maramdaman, mapabayaan, at mauwi sa mas malalang impeksyon
5. Mas madaling dapuan ng impeksyon at mas mahirap gamutin
6. Pagkauwi sa comatose

GUMAGALING BA ANG DIABETES MELLITUS?
Ang Diabetes Mellitus ay pang habang buhay na sakit.

Wala itong lunas.

Pero may mga paraan at gamot para maiwasan ang mabilis na paglala nito.

MAGPAKONSULTA SA INYONG DOKTOR KUNG MAY MGA TANONG O AGAM-AGAM TUNGKOL SA DIABETES MELLITUS.

Maraming salamat!

2.5 million people died from pneumonia in 2019

It's the leading cause of death in children less than 5 years old

PNEUMONIA is an infection of tiny air sacs in the lungs which become filled with pus and fluid, makes it hard to breathe and reduces Oxygen intake. It is caused by bacteria, virus, or fungi.

SYMPTOMS OF PNEUMONIA can be mild, moderate, or severe depending on different factors such as:
> the type of infecting agent (bacteria, virus, fungi, etc)
> the patient's age
> the patient's overall health condition

Signs and symptoms may include:
- Cough
- Fatigue
- Fever, sweating or chills
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Chest pain when coughing

In people 65 years old and above, they may have
- lower than normal temperature
- confusion, or even increased sleeping or drowsiness

In children, they may show
- fast breathing
- noisy breathing
- chest retractions, where you can see their muscles sucked in the ribs
- poor feeding
- irritability
- Lethargy, or decreased activity and increased sleeping

HOW TO AVOID PNEUMONIA
1) Avoid exposure to air pollution and smoke.

2) Ensure good nutrition by eating healthy food and drinking enough water/fluids
3) Practice good hygiene. Always wash your hands with soap and water

4) Avoid exposure to sick people or those with fever and cough.
If you can't avoid them:
> always wear face mask
> maintain good distance
> avoid sharing of utensils
> always practice hand hygiene
> clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces or objects.

5) Get pneumonia vaccine, especially if you are at high risk for pneumonia:
> children
> elderly (65 years old and above)
> those with chronic diseases, such as asthma, COPD, diabetes, heart disease, etc.

If you have any questions or concerns about pneumonia prevention, talk to your doctor.

Water is essential for life, and drinking enough of it every day has many health benefits. Here are just a few:

1) Regulates body temperature.
2) Lubricates and cushions joints.
3) Protects organs and tissues.
4) Helps with digestion.
5) Prevents constipation.
6) Removes waste products.
7) Improves physical performance.
8) Improves mood and cognitive function.
9) Promotes weight loss.
10) May reduce the risk of kidney stones.
11) May reduce the risk of other chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

Most adults need around 3.7 liters (for males) or 2.7 liters (for females) of fluids per day, but the exact amount you need will vary depending on your individual factors, such as your activity level and climate. It is important to note that other fluids, such as juice, milk, and tea, can also contribute to your daily fluid intake. However, water is the best choice because it is calorie-free and has no added sugar or other additives.

Here are some tips for staying hydrated:

1) Drink water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty.
2) Keep a water bottle with you at all times and refill it often.
3) Drink water before, during, and after exercise.
4) Eat fruits and vegetables, which contain water.
5) Avoid sugary drinks, such as soda and juice, as these can dehydrate you.

If you have any questions or concerns about your fluid intake, talk to your doctor.
