What does it mean when doctor says you have protein in your urine when your 67 with diabetes and high BP?

My dad is 67 and had to visit a kidney specialist because his regular doctor found protein in his urine! Specialist ran tests – dad got his results by mail today stating that his kidneys were stable and that he should return to his reg. doctor. My father does not take good careof his sugar and is now on insulin. What exactly does protein in your urine mean!! Do I or my siblings need to start going to the doctor with my dad?? His A1C was over 12 and his sugar at time of test was 297! he also has high blood pressure!! What can we do to comvince him to take better care of hisself??

This is hard. My mother is the same but under better control. Diet if not exercise (ideal is both) is SO important. His A1C level needs to be under 6.9 ideally. What can you do? Nothing really. Talk to him, but ultimately, he has to make that decison. You can’t take that on. I know… I wish I could too.

question about diabetic cooking and baking?

Hi first off thanks for taking the time to read (and hopefully reply to) my question. My husband is a diabetic ( he is on insulin) My dad is not a diabetic but has higher than normal sugar levels (on the brink of diabeties) My mom and I are fine but want to eat healthier. My question is how can I make things diabetic friendly I know I can use whole-wheat or whole grain breads and pasta and use splenda sugar or brown sugar or natural honey or I could use unsweetned applesauce instead of butter in reciepes and I could use low-sodium stuff. What else can I do and does anyone have any good diabetic friendly recipes any kind salads suppers, desserts anything.

Using sugarfree versions of foods (splenda, etc.) is good. There are also LOTS of Diabetic cookbooks out there too.

Does drinking Pepsi increase your risk for type 1diabetes?

My best friend has had a few symptoms of diabetes, and I’m quite scared for her. She drinks between 1-5+ cans of pepsi a day, and she has been for the past few years. It’s almost all she drinks.

Does this increase her risk for type 1 diabetes? She’s 13.

No it doesnt. Your friend is completely safe. THe nature of how Type 1 Diabetes has developed is still not quite clear but it is definately not from having too much sugar. If your friend continues to have a diet of a lot of sugar for a long period of time, they will eventually develope type 2 diabetes, which is COMPLETELY different from type 1. Type 2 is reversible from weight loss and diet changes, type 1 is forever and cant be cured.

Gestational Diabetes and Weight-loss?

I am 32 weeks pregnant and recently found out I have Gestational Diabetes. I am controlling it with a diet plan given to me by my doctor, and everything is going well and under control. My worry is this new diet is causing me to loose a lot of weight. I am eating a ton, but it is basically like being on a low-carb diet, and it is causing weight loss. Now I was not thin to start out; when I was diagnosed at 25 weeks I was at 230, and now I am down to 190. So it’s not like I am a bean pole, but I still have two months to go. The doctor says that the baby is doing fine, but I read so much that says any weight loss during pregnancy is bad. Anyone else had this issue? Was the baby ok? Were you?

Thanks in advance!

Most likely, if the baby is fine and you are fine, then the weight loss is okay. Many women who are overweight will lose some weight or simply stop gaining for a while, as they change their diets to a more healthy one. If you are really concerned about it, ask for a referral to a nutritionist or dietician who works with pregnant women to find out if your new diet is really adequate for you and your baby, considering your GD. If you are eating a diverse diet with fewer carbs and fewer or no junk food, chances are good that the weight you are loosing is all fat and unhealthy weight, and it is not detrimental to your baby’s health. Again, get a second opinion if you are concerned or don’t feel good with the diet. Even seeing a different OB or midwife can help you get a better perspective on your situation, without seeing a nutritionist.

From what I have seen and read, one should not TRY to lose weight during pregnancy, but if one loses weight due to a healthy change in diet and exercise, it can be okay so long as the mom and baby are otherwise okay.

When I got pregnant with my first, I needed to lose about 30 lbs. I did not gain nearly as much weight as the recommendations for my base weight, but my son was very healthy and I could tell that my weight was actually shifting. I was losing fat as my diet changed and the baby grew. With my second pregnancy, I started out weighing a lot less and gained a lot more with that pregnancy. Really, they tell people not to lose weight during pregnancy because it can be very unhealthy for an average, healthy woman of average weight to lose weight during pregnancy.

Anyone else scared to death??

I am 32 weeks pregnant. I have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I can not seem to control it with diet (and I can’t excersize). My doctor put me on pills to help keep it under control. I am terrified to take the pills! I don’t want any side effects. I have 2 young children at home to watch out for… what happens if I can’t? Anyone had to take a pill to control gestational diabetes and can give me words of encouragement? I also have to do non-stress tests 2x a week and see my doctor weekly… any way to not go crazy?? Thanks

hang in there! I had gestational diabetes too! It was so hard I cried for weeks, but in the long run followed the diet and ended up losing weight and felt great after I had her. You can do it, be strong for you baby and other kids it will be hard but when your done you’ll be glad you did. praying is good too!
good luck!

Diabetes is quickly becoming one of the world`s most serious health epidemics, and researchers are continually searching for new ways to manage the condition beyond the traditional realms of diet, exercise, and medication. Now, Dr. Richard S. Surwit, a leader in the field of the psychology of diabetes, adds the vital fourth component to treating diabetes: a revolutionary mind-body program that lowers blood sugar levels and dramatically reduces diabetes` serious and damaging side effects. In The Mind-Body Diabetes Revolution, Dr. Surwit reveals how stress, depression, and anger affect blood sugar levels and offers a step-by-step six-week program-based on twenty years of study-to help the millions of people with diabetes effectively manage their condition. He clearly explains how our moods and emotions can translate into chronic anger, anxiety, and depression-all of which increase blood sugar levels. He provides compelling case studies and a powerfully effective six-week program designed to teach patients how to manage emotions and stress, as well as self-tests and reflective quizzes to help patients determine the best and easiest psychological techniques to help keep blood sugar levels down. By bringing the powers of mind and body together, this is a powerful-and unprecedented-tool for effective diabetes control.

It is possible to manage and even reverse diabetes through natural means, and in Reversing Diabetes, Dr. Colbert shows you how.Most people view diabetes as a dead-end street?once you receive a diabetes diagnosis, your only option is to manage the symptoms with a restricted diet, close monitoring of blood sugar, and expensive medications. Dr. Colbert shows that diabetes can be treated instead through safe, natural means, like healthy food and vitamins rather than strictly relying on prescription drugs. He shows you how to manage your weight and your glucose intake with a whole-body approach, using nutritional supplements along with dietary and lifestyle changes to lose weight, repair cell damage, improve insulin function, and reduce the side effects from prescription drugs, many of which rob nutrients from the body and cause additional symptoms.Based on the same life-changing principles of the low-glycemic, high-fiber eating plan provided in Dr. Colbert`s New York Times best-selling book, Dr. Colbert`s ?I Can Do This? Diet, this book adapts that plan in a way that makes it ideal for diabetics who need to manage their glucose levels and their weight. ?Siloam?an imprint of Charisma House Book Group, is the leader in the Christian health and fitness genre, with several best-sellers?including Don Colbert`s The Bible Cure series.? ?Christian Retailing ?Physician Don Colbert Preaches The Gospel Of Good Nutrition, Advising His Patients To Follow In The Footsteps Of One Of History`s Better-known Role Models.? ?Orlando Sentinel

Central Regulation of Autonomic Function (Hardcover)


Central Regulation of Autonomic Function (Hardcover)


$106.76


Central autonomic circuits in the brain and spinal cord are essential to vertebrate life: they control all basic bodily functions, including blood pressure, body temperature regulation, digestion, and reproduction.Edited by two experts in the field, Ida Llewellyn-Smith and Anthony J. M. Verberne, and extensively illustrated, the second edition of Central Regulation of Autonomic Function presents the extraordinary advances that have been made over the last 20 years in the understanding of how our central nervous system controls autonomic functions. Written in a clear and readable manner by an international collection of neuroscientists and physiologists, the first nine chapters describe central autonomic circuits from the cerebral cortex to the periphery. Eight more chapters address specific bodily functions and their control by central autonomic circuits. Two additional chapters discuss cardio-respiratory integration and regulation of autonomic function by visceral and somatic afferents. All of the chapters are up-to-date and cover topics such as the central autonomic regulation of airways, gastrointestinal function, energy homeostasis, body temperature, and sexual function, reflecting the latest research.One of the only texts to provide the whole story of how the brain controls basic bodily functions that are critical for life, Central Regulation of Autonomic Function will be essential reading for graduate students and researchers in neuroscience, anatomy, pharmacology and physiology as well as a valuable reference work for established workers in the field.
