    Diabetics know about insulin, and many people are already worried about whether diabetics are "addicted" to insulin injections and may need to take insulin. Is it true that diabetics need to inject insulin all the time? The answer is no, many people have a misunderstanding about this insulin, so let's talk about whether to keep taking insulin for diabetes.

    The most common types of diabetes we have are type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes, and the reason why we need to take insulin is because the blood sugar is high and low in diabetic patients, because the role of insulin is to lower blood sugar. Insulin is a hormone that can be secreted in the human body and is the only hormone that can lower blood sugar, and diabetic patients are because the insulin in the body is insufficient, so the blood sugar cannot be controlled to the normal range, resulting in high blood sugar and diabetes.

    Therefore, diabetics do not need to feel fear, insulin is the most effective and direct way to lower blood sugar, if diabetics are unable to lower blood sugar with other drugs, then insulin can play at this time. However, when the blood sugar begins to stabilize, you can consider stopping insulin for so long, so it does not mean that you need to take insulin all the time if you have diabetes, and the medication must be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.

    As we all know, the most important thing for diabetics is to lower blood sugar, so not only drugs or insulin can control blood sugar, but we can also control blood sugar in diabetic patients through food in our daily lifeSo what foods are not easy to raise blood sugar?

    1.Diabetics can eat grapefruit, because grapefruit contains insulin nutrients, which can effectively lower blood sugar to a certain extent.

    2.Diabetics can eat cherries, when cherries enter the body, they can help increase the secretion of insulin and can also effectively lower blood sugar.

    3.Diabetics can choose to eat more vegetables, mainly green vegetables, but remember not to have too much oil and too much salt when cooking.

    As mentioned earlier, the most important thing for diabetic patients is to stabilize blood sugar and keep blood sugar within the normal rangeIn fact, you can also exercise through exercise, and exercise can also be a good way to control blood sugar and stabilizeBecause exercise will consume glucose in the blood, if you exercise for about 30 minutes a day, it will make it safer for diabetics to stabilize their blood sugar.

    The above is about diabetes blood sugar control, we can start from many aspects to control blood sugar in daily life, so that blood sugar is more stable and safe.

    Many people should know that insulin is an effective way to control blood sugar in diabetes, and there are many diabetics who need to use insulin for a long time to control blood sugar, especially those with type 1 diabetes. Some diabetic patients are afraid that their long-term insulin injections will cause harm to their bodies, or some simply think that long-term insulin injections will make the body dependent, and some diabetic patients will reject when they need to inject insulin, but in fact, they cannot be rejected when they need to inject insulin, and they will not bring *** to the body.

    Insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic islet cells. This hormone helps the body lower blood sugar and promotes glycogen fat protein synthesis. Normally, pancreatic islet cells in the body appreciate their own blood sugar concentrations and changes.

    If your blood sugar rises during a normal meal, you secrete more insulin, and when your blood sugar drops, you control your insulin secretion to maintain your blood sugar balance. However, some people with diabetes are unable to secrete insulin normally because of impaired pancreatic islet function. At this point, they need to use exogenous insulin to help the body replenish enough insulin to control their blood sugar.

    In fact, insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic islet cells. Normally, this hormone helps the body balance blood sugar and promote the synthesis of glycogen, fats, proteins, and other substances. Insulin senses changes in the body's blood sugar concentration and increases or decreases secretion as it changes, so that blood sugar is always in a balanced state.

    In diabetic patients, the function of pancreatic islets has been disrupted and they are unable to secrete more insulin for human use. This is where exogenous insulin is needed to enter the body to help balance blood sugar. As far as current medical technology is concerned, there is no cure for diabetes that is already in the development stage.

    Patients can only control the increase in blood sugar with medication and insulin injections. The insulin that can be marketed has undergone complete animal and human trials, and the *** and harm of the drug have been thoroughly understood. If insulin is really harmful to the human body, it will naturally not be marketed for patients.

    Need. There may be ***. The body does not produce insulin on its own, so diabetics need to inject insulin regularly. If you inject too much insulin at one time, your blood sugar will drop rapidly, causing discomfort, so be sure to pay attention to the dosage.

    Diabetes in young people depends first on the type of diabetes. If type 1 diabetes is considered, it is mostly caused by a combination of autoimmune factors, viral infections, and some idiopathic factors. The main manifestations are severe defects in the function of pancreatic islet cells and absolute lack of insulin secretion.

    These patients usually need to receive insulin for the rest of their lives**. If a young patient is overweight and has a clear family history of diabetes, type 2 diabetes should be considered. Diabetic doesn't have to be given insulin.

    You'll need to decide whether you have to take insulin based on the type of diabetes, your blood sugar, and your islet function.

    Diabetes mellitus is one of the chronic metabolic diseases with a high incidence in recent years. It is quite complex and is a clinical syndrome induced by the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Because of pancreatic islet dysfunction, insulin resistance, blood sugar cannot be metabolized smoothly, resulting in high blood sugar!

    However, the most terrible thing about diabetes is not simply an increase in blood sugar. Behind it are various complications caused by high blood sugar. If the patient's condition is not properly controlled, there may be kidney damage, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, nerve and peripheral vascular damage, eye damage and many other problems in the later stage!

    Therefore, as long as diabetes is diagnosed, doctors will advise patients to take blood sugar lowering in time**. Moreover, even with the obvious progress of medical technology in recent years, there is no cure for diabetes. In other words, as long as the diagnosis is confirmed, it means that the patient needs to take medication for a long time or even for life!

    Because fat cells attract macrophages, muscle tissue is less sensitive to insulin. Therefore, when diabetes occurs, it is necessary to distinguish what type of diabetes it is, give targeted **, and control blood sugar at a normal level. Young diabetic patients generally require fasting blood glucose of 6-7 mmol L and a blood glucose of 7-8 mmol L 2 hours after meals, which is much higher than the target blood glucose value of the elderly.

    As long as the blood sugar can be controlled within the normal range when not taking insulin, then you can consider not taking insulin; Diabetes is generally caused by consuming too much sugary drinks or foods, resulting in too high sugar content in the body to be metabolized.

    If you take insulin, you have to take it for life.

    Patients with type 1 diabetes, due to the impaired function of their own pancreatic islet cells, and the absolute lack of insulin secretion, need insulin** at the onset of the disease, and need lifelong insulin replacement** to maintain life and life.

    This type is more common in young people with diabetes who develop before the age of 25 years, are emaciated, and have multiple episodes of ketosis or ketoacidosis. For them, because their own pancreatic B cells are almost completely damaged, injections of exogenous insulin are necessary to maintain blood glucose stability and metabolic balance in the body. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to take insulin for life.

    As long as the oral drug** is not effective, it is necessary to take insulin, which generally takes a long time to maintain the stability of blood sugar. Insulin and medicine are both to control blood sugar, and it is still advantageous to take insulin in diabetes, because insulin has a promoting effect on the body's secretion of insulin.

    Can insulin be stopped.

    Stopping insulin or reducing the number of injections may be considered in the following situations:

    First, obese patients who have been on insulin for many years**, patients with normal liver function or mild abnormality of kidney function, and poor blood sugar control.

    Second, diabetes mellitus with hypertension, hyperuricemia, dyslipidemia, fatty liver and other manifestations of metabolic syndrome, try to stop insulin.

    Third, those who completely use premixed insulin 30**, often have postprandial blood sugar does not meet the standard, and follow the insulin dosage to cause hypoglycemia. If there are no contraindications, it can be switched to an oral hypoglycemic agent, plus basal insulin, or completely switched to an oral metformin-based oral hypoglycemic agent.

    Fourth, blood glucose control under the combination of long-acting insulin and oral hypoglycemic drugs**, even if the target is reached, if the insulin dose is not large, insulin can be considered to be discontinued.

    Fifth, those who choose to inject insulin due to mild abnormalities in liver and kidney function, some patients with chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C who do not have cirrhosis and have good liver function, or who have mild abnormalities, have oral hypoglycemic drugs to choose from.

    Diabetics with such insulin do not necessarily have to be taken for life, but should be determined according to their own type; There are two types of diabetes, type 1 diabetes, which is relatively deficient in insulin and needs to be played for life, and type 2 diabetes, which only needs to take medication.

  17. Anonymous users2024-01-27

    Yes. The basis is that diabetics have problems with their metabolism and can only control the metabolism of the kidneys by taking insulin, and they are also very dependent on such behaviors, but such behaviors will cause some damage to the body and will form sequelae.

  18. Anonymous users2024-01-26

    Yes, the physical condition of diabetic patients is very unstable, and insulin injections must be injected for a long time to ensure the stability of blood sugar. The body can also develop a certain dependence.

    It is the only hypoglycemic hormone in the human body. Some patients require long-term insulin**, not because of dependence, but because of loss of their own islet function, and must rely on exogenous insulin to help control blood sugar. For example, people with type diabetes who need insulin** at the onset of the disease and are on insulin replacement** for the rest of their lives cannot stop taking insulin.

    However, people with type diabetes need to decide whether to use insulin based on the function of the islets**.

    For example, in the early stages of the disease, blood sugar can be well controlled with lifestyle interventions and medications**, and insulin is generally not required**. However, for some patients with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus, HbA1c or fasting blood glucose, and significant symptoms of hyperglycemia, short-term insulin fortification can be given**; Many patients have good glycemic control after insulin fortification**, and thus adjust to oral hypoglycemic drugs. Therefore, patients should be consulted by a specialist about whether they are taking insulin and whether they need to use insulin.

    Type diabetes is caused by the destruction of pancreatic islet cells, resulting in a deficiency of insulin, the only hypoglycemic hormone in the body, and an increase in blood sugar, which requires insulin to sustain life.

    So you have to use insulin to ** it. In fact, before 1997, diabetes was diagnosed as insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetes, which is now type 1 and type 2 diabetes. So people with type 1 diabetes have few options and must use insulin**.

    For patients with type 2 diabetes, I believe that this part of the patients is hesitant and will have a lot of concerns between using it and not using it.

    Many people have a certain misunderstanding of insulin and think that it is dependent, so many people refuse the doctor's advice and are unwilling to use this method when they need to use insulin**. However, insulin is still recommended for diabetic ketoacidosis, liver and kidney insufficiency, digestive disorders, infections, perioperative conditions, etc. After the condition is stabilized, the doctor will generally propose several ** regimens according to the patient's condition, such as insulin**, oral drugs**, etc., for the patient to choose.

    Since oral medication** can be administered after insulin, it means that insulin is not dependent and patients can rest assured that it is used.
