Cause of Diabetes - Having Too Much or Too Little of the Insulin Beta Cells
To understand the main cause of diabetes, it is important for us to understand how thepancreas responds in producing insulin beta cells needed for the body's glucose absorption.Under normal circumstances, the glucose (sugar) will enter the bloodstream which will actas fuel for the body. The pancreas may be slow or may fail to produce tiny insulin factoriescalled beta cells in order to transfer the glucose to the liver cells, muscles and fats. If thereare few or no beta cells that enable other cells to receive glucose, the blood sugar level willincrease.This is the main or primary cause of diabetes.Due to the failure of the pancreas to produce the insulin beta cells, the level of unabsorbedglucose will also increase as the constant supply of glucose keeps coming in. As a recourse,the body will merely flush out the unabsorbed glucose by way of urine. Hence, the diabeticwill experience thirst and frequently pass urine. The diabetes sufferer will need insulininjections to meet the body's insulin requirements.In other cases, the disorder may be due to the resistance of other cells to the insulin cells.There is now failure in glucose absorption but pancreatic production of insulin continues asan automatic response to the presence of glucose. Both insulin and glucose levels becomeelevated yet no absorption is taking place in order to supply the body with energy.Other causes of diabetes may include the following factors:
1. Immunity
- The beta cells of the pancreas is attacked by a disturbance in the immunesystem thereby a type 1 diabetes emerges. Under type 1 diabetes, the sufferer becomesinsulin dependent due to the failure of the pancreas to produce insulin. This usually happensto children and adolescents.
 
2. Inflammatory
- Viral infections are transferred from the blood to the pancreas resultingto damaged beta cells.
3. Hereditary
- Some hereditary genes contribute to the emergence of diabetes in somepeople. If the parent is diabetic, chances are the offspring will be afflicted by type 1diabetes by around 10%, more or less.
4. Environment
- This includes the following factors:a. Weight- In some studies, 80% of overweight patients are diabetics.b. Sex- Diabetes is prevalent in women than men in the ratio of 2 to 1. Gestational diabeteshappens at a later period of pregnancy. This will make the mother prone to type 2 diabetes.c. Age- This usually occurs after the age group of 45 years old.d. Exercise- Lack of exercise can reduce the ability of the body to absorb insulin. In theabsence of exercise, type 2 diabetes typically emerges.e. Eating Habits- Eating lots of fats, sweets and even fast meals will contribute in weightgain. Once there is already too much fats in the body cells, the sensitivity of cells decreasein absorbing insulin.f. Ethnicity - For some unexplained reasons, women who are of African, Hispanic, AmericanIndian, and Asian descent, are prone to develop diabetes.Since we already know the exact cause of diabetes, simple but important health rules suchas eating the proper food and in the right amounts as well as engaging in exercises shouldbecome a normal part of our life.
