Session Three - Your Risks of Disease |
|||||
|
|
|||||
|
INSULIN RESISTANCE & DIABETES |
|||||
|
Where do we go from here? |
|||||
|
To this point we have
discussed the relationship between menopause and abnormal sugar metabolism.
We have established that although healthy, balanced hormones and ideal body weight
were important, that there are other considerations for normal blood sugar
function. |
|||||
|
We have also come to realize that abnormal sugar
metabolism is a widespread problem, reaching epidemic proportions! |
|||||
|
We also realize that long before diabetes takes
place, the first stages of dysglycemia –
hypoglycemia and insulin - can be easily identified, and more easily managed. |
|||||
|
The negative effect on quality of life and the increased
risk of life threatening diseases requires increased attention to blood sugar
and insulin health, especially woman of menopause age. |
|||||
|
Risk
Factors |
|||||
|
Assessing risk factors based on family history,
waist-to-hip ratio and weight are inadequate. A woman may be of ideal weight,
have a waist-to hip ratio that with no family history and still be at risk. |
|||||
|
It’s important to realize that the best way to
determine risk for developing a dysglycemia is
through diagnostic tests, and evaluation by an experienced health care
professional. |
|||||
|
The next few pages will discuss how a healthy diet
can prevent dysglycemia and how and unhealthy diet
can cause dysglycemia. Tests which can be used to
detect the onset of insulin resistance and diabetes will be presented. Then
the conventional, as well as the nutritional and herbal choices for
management of dysglycemias will be discussed. |
