Introduction
Diabetes mellitus is a type of metabolic disorder in which patients are unable to regulate glycemia. It is currently a worldwide public health problem and is a burden on society due to its disabling and common complications. Diabetes is multifactorial and also induces the onset of other diseases. Thedisorders demonstrated in the form of increased levels of sugar for a significantly long period. Increased hunger, increased thirst and frequent urination are some of the symptoms. A number of complications can be the consequence if the symptoms are not taken seriously. In extreme cases, amputation of feet or legs may be necessary. Acute or short-term complications include hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state ketoacidosis and/or death. Eye damage, stroke, cardiovascular disease and foot ulcers are among the chronic or long-term complications. Two conditions can cause diabetes. One is when the pancreas is not producing insulin in the necessary quantities. Another is the type where the insulin produced cannot be used properly under subnormal conditions. Diabetes can be classified into three types.
Type 1
In this type of diabetes, the pancreas is unable to produce the required amount of insulin. This is due to the loss, or lack, of beta cells. The cause of this diabetes is unknown. This type of diabetes is also referred to as Juvenile diabetes.
Type 2
In this type of diabetes, also called lifestyle diabetes, the cells in the body will not respond correctly to the insulin the pancreas produces. This phenomenon is called insulin resistance. An insulin deficiency can develop during the progression of this condition. Previously, this type of diabetes was known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Insufficient exercise and increased body weight are said to be the two main causes of this type of diabetes, although some research may indicate that obesity, insulin resistance and high blood sugar levels may be caused by an unfavorable bacterial flora in the gut. Obesity has been attributed to increasing the risk of multifactorial diseases, such as type 2 diabetes. Recently, it was reported that type 2 diabetes in humans was also related to a lowered level of butyrate-producing microbes and an increased level of Lactobacillus[1]
Gestational diabetes
This is a condition where high blood sugar develops during pregnancy. Usually the problem disappears after birth. It can occur at any stage of pregnancy, but is more common in the second half. It occurs if the body cannot produce enough insulin to meet the extra demand during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes can cause problems for mother and child during and after birth. The risk of these problems occurring can be reduced if they are detected and properly treated.
Treatment and prevention
Treatment and prevention are complex processes. It is a common belief, and certainly something that helps the most when the individual exercises and maintains a healthy diet. Maintaining a normal body weight, avoiding smoking and/or using tobacco in other forms are among the usual recommendations. Those who have, or are at risk of developing diabetes should see their doctor to ensure that their blood pressure is within the normal range. Injections of insulin are usually required in cases of type 1 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes can often be controlled with the use of prescribed medication. It may or may not include the use of insulin. A side effect of some oral medications and insulin can be low blood sugar. As mentioned, gestational diabetes usually resolves on its own after birth. The main reason for giving such a concise explanation of diabetes is that a significant part of the general population is at risk of diabetes, and it is important that people have knowledge about the disease.
The most joyful aspect of life
Sweet taste is one of the most pleasant aspects of life. However, this taste usually comes from some form of sugar. Regular sugars can be extremely harmful to diabetics. However, alternatives are sweeteners or sweeteners. Basically, artificial sugar is recommended (not by us) to be used by diabetic patients, to replace regular sugar. There are sugar-free versions of common products, intended for diabetics and those trying to lose weight. This phenomenon can also be used as an indicator of the fact that diabetes mellitus is a very common disease. These products can be used to ensure that the disease does not become more intense. However, there is growing evidence that sweeteners can have their own health consequences. New research from the United States, presented at the annual Experimental Biology conference in San Diego, showed a link with the consumption of artificial sweeteners and changes in blood markers linked to an increased risk of obesity and type two diabetes[2]. Increasingly, it suggests that consumption of artificially sweetened products may be associated with an increased risk of overweight or obesity, although this is controversial. If true, it suggests that using sweeteners does not fight obesity. Research has suggested that consuming a lot of artificial sweeteners feeds the unwanted bacteria in our gut, which results in the body becoming less tolerant of glucose which is 50% of regular sugar.
Biological effects of sweeteners
The new research, from the Medical College of Wisconsin and Marquette University, looked at some biological effects of sweeteners in rats and in cell cultures. They wanted to know if artificial sweeteners affect, and how the food is used and stored. These are called metabolic changes and the research combined many different aspects of metabolism to form an overall picture. The team also looked at the effect of sweeteners on blood vessels by studying how these substances affect the cells that form the inner layer of blood vessels. The researchers fed rats food that was high in either sugar (glucose or fructose), or calorie-free artificial sweeteners (aspartame or acesulfame K). After three weeks, they observed significant negative changes in both groups of experimental rats. These changes included concentrations of blood lipids (fats).
Acesulfame K linked to obesity and diabetes
They found that Acesulfame-K (originally a nail polish remover) accumulated in the blood and it damaged the cells in the blood vessels. The researchers behind the study say that these the changes are "linked to obesity and diabetes". These results suggest that consuming sweeteners can change how the body processes fat and gets its energy at the cellular level.
It tastes like sugar, but it isn't
The natural sweetener used by sorze4, in Fruity'n Sweet®, Amazon Secret®, Claudia Münch® and other of the company's sugar-reduced products is not sugar, and it is not even a non-nutritive sweetener. It's a great product if you have diabetes, are trying to control your weight, or for other reasons want to cut down on carbohydrates and miss the taste of real sugar.
We have called sweetener JustSweet®. It's like sugar, but it's not (you read that right). It is a sweetener that can be used in almost any food as a substitute for sugar and to enhance or sweeten the taste.
It is not a non-nutritive sweetener. It has carbs, but all carbs are not created equal. JustSweet contains a prebiotic dietary fiber which is the carbohydrates (2 kcal per gram).
New research suggests that dietary fiber plays a crucial role in feeding the trillions of microbes that inhabit our bodies. A collective known as the microbiome, which especially for people with type 2 diabetes, with a high-fiber diet together with a favorable gut microbiome can keep the patient's blood sugar and body weight under control. Researchers in China were able to find the specific "good" bacteria that break down fiber into acids, and ultimately improve insulin regulation.[3]
Improves the microbiome
The person who eats 1 g JustSweet per day, for 4 weeks, will give you 6 times more of the good bacteria. In our prebiotic beverages, per 250 ml of delicious sweet flavors and natural vitamins, there is also 1 gram of prebiotic fibre.
Conclusion
Products from sorze4 is not designed to cure, or prevent disease or any condition, but it just so happens that the perfect sweetener comes with some "free" benefits for those who want to lower their calorie intake, or reduce their sugar intake, for various reasons.
