| | |  blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Blood sugar - Direct health effects of blood sugar problemsIf blood sugar levels drop too low, a potentially fatal condition called hypoglycemia develops. Symptoms may include lethargy, impaired mental functioning, irritability, and loss of consciousness.
If levels remain too high, appetite is suppressed over the short term. Long-term hyperglycemia causes many of the long-term health problems associated with diabetes, including eye, kidney, and nerve damage.

| | |  blood sugar: Yoga for Diabetics Here we focus on a yoga program for Diabetics. Although genetic factors are also involved, a diet over- rich in carbohydrates, obesity, not enough exercise and stress also contribute to a large extent to this disease. Yoga, with its amazing range of practices, can not only give you an exercise program to help reduce blood sugar but also realign, revitalize and improve the functioning of the Endocrine System and the organs and glands that are involved in diabetes. Instructions and benefits for: - Bhastrika Pranayama - Uddiyan Bandha - Agnisar Kriya - Ushtrasana - Paschimottanasana - Bhujangasana - Ardhamatsyendrasana - Vakrasana - Merudandasana (See also: Yoga and Health, Yoga, Yoga and Health, Yoga Systems, Yoga Positions)

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Hypoglycemia - Pathophysiology: why low blood sugar primarily affects the brain Like most animal tissues, brain metabolism depends primarily on glucose for fuel in most circumstances. A limited amount of glucose can be derived from glycogen stored in astrocytes, but it is consumed within minutes. For most practical purposes, the brain is dependent on a continual supply of glucose diffusing from the blood into the interstitial tissue within the central nervous system and into the neurons themselves.
Therefore, if the amount of glucose supplied by the blood falls, the brain is one of the first organs affected. In m ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Diabetes in cats and dogs - Hypoglycemic episode An acute hypoglycemic episode (very low blood sugar) can happen even if you are careful, since pets' insulin requirements sometimes change without warning. The symptoms are depression/lethargy, confusion/dizziness, loss of excretory/bladder control, vomiting, and then loss of consciousness and/or seizures. As soon as possible, administer honey or corn syrup by rubbing it on the gums (even if unconscious, but not if in seizures), and rush it to the vet. Carry more honey or corn syrup with you on the way and keep rubbing it on the gums, where ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Diabetes in cats and dogs - Dosage and regulation Cats and dogs may in some cases have their mealtimes strictly scheduled and planned to match with injection times. In other cases where the pet free-feeds and normally eats little bits all day or night, it may be best to remain on this schedule and try to use a very slow-acting insulin to keep a constant level of blood glucose. Consult your veterinarian. Note that some veterinarians still use the outdated recommendation of using Humulin "N" or NPH insulin for cats. This insulin is too fast-acting for most cats (though fine for dogs and human ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Infant respiratory distress syndrome - Treatment Oxygen is given with a small amount of continuous positive airway pressure ("CPAP"), and intravenous fluids are administered to stabilize the blood sugar, blood salts, and blood pressure. If the baby's condition worsens, a breathing tube is inserted into the trachea and intermittent breaths are given by a mechanical device. An exogenous preparation of surfactant, either synthetic or extracted from animal's lungs, is given through the breathing tube into the lungs. With these treatments, many babies will be breathing normally within 48-72 hou ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Diabetes in cats and dogs - Symptoms Cats and dogs will generally show a gradual onset of the disease over a few weeks, and it may escape notice for a while. The condition is unusual in animals less than 7 years old. The first obvious symptoms are a sudden weight loss or gain, accompanied by excessive drinking and urination. Appetite is suddenly either ravenous (up to 3 times normal) or absent. In dogs, the next symptom is vision problems and cataracts, while in cats the back legs will become weak and the gait may become stilted or wobbly. A quick test at this point can be done ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Diabetes in cats and dogs - Treatment Diabetes can be treated but is life-threatening if left alone. Early diagnosis and treatment by a qualified veterinarian can help, not only in preventing nerve damage, but in some cases, in cats, can even lead to remission.[1][2]
Diabetes in cats and dogs - Diet.
Diet is a critical component of treatment, and is in many cases effective on its own. For example, a recent mini-study[3] showed that many diabetic cats stopped needing insulin after changing to a low-carbohydrate diet. The rationale is that a low ...

| | | | blood sugar: Encyclopedia II - Glycogen storage disease type I - Metabolic pathophysiology
Glycogen storage disease type I - Normal carbohydrate balance and maintenance of blood glucose levels.
Glycogen in liver and (to a lesser degree) kidneys serves as a form of stored, rapidly accessible glucose, so that the blood glucose level can be maintained between meals. For about 3 hours after a carbohydrate-containing meal, high insulin levels direct liver cells to take glucose from the blood, to convert it to glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), and to add the G6P molecules to the ends of chains of glycogen (glycogen synthesis). Excess G6P is also shunted into p ...
