Precision Glucose Monitoring

Diabetes mellitus, or more commonly known as diabetes, is defined as a condition wherein the body does not produce any insulin or can't use the insulin it does make as well as it should. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps glucose get absorbed into the blood cells where it can be used to give the body energy. Without insulin, glucose builds up in the blood stream and cannot be used for energy by the body’s cells. Over time, having an excessive amount of glucose in the blood can cause many severe health problems. Diabetes is one of the deadliest and most widespread diseases in the United States today. In fact, studies showed that almost 3% of the entire world’s population in the year 2000 was afflicted with this disease, with many not even aware of their condition until it’s too late. Sadly, diabetes is a chronic disease, which means it is rather very difficult to cure. Most diabetics today overcome their difficult condition with regular exercise and close dietary management. Diabetes can be treated with insulin shots or oral medication. Some patients will respond to careful meal planning and increased physical activity. People afflicted with diabetes should check their blood glucose levels often and monitor their health with utmost attention. There are many different ways to check blood glucose levels. One of the newer, more popular methods is to use blood glucose test strips and glucose meters. Industry leader Abbot, and its diabetes care line Precision Xtra, help patients check their glucose and blood sugar levels. The Precision Xtra glucometer is a handy little device that provides a simple way to test blood sugar and glucose levels. The Precision Xtra Blood Glucose monitoring system was designed for simple, hassle-free testing. It has simple icon-driven menus, and automatically minimizes the hassle from regular blood glucose monitoring. The Precision Xtra glucometer is one of the leading systems on the market with the technology to test blood sugar and ketone levels using the same meter and test strips. It is important to note that diabetes is manageable when aligned with a regulated diet, exercise and weight management plan. The Precision Xtra glucometer system helps patients monitor their blood sugar levels with great ease and precision.

Swollen diabetic feet shoes?

Hello, my motehr in law suffers from diabetes and her feet are always swollen ,she usually uses slipers but I will like her to have comfortable shoes that fit her feet, do anybody know where to get very wide shoes, not the XTRA WIDTH they sell at regular stores but very wide shoes. thanks.

It may be more than just swollen feet and/or diabetes. Does she constantly work on her feet? Is she grossly overweight? How is her blood glucose control? Many things come together to determine diabetic foot problems and the sorting out of them is better left to her diabetic Dr and a good podiatrist . Second guessing is dangerous, it could also be her heart or kidneys or something known as Charcot Foot disease. Know exactly what the underlying problem is before you self treat. Living with diabetes is hard enough without foolishly putting yourself in harms way. Good Luck! PS The pros know where to find the shoes too!
