Astrology and Diabetes and Astrologiocal combinations of Diabeties and its preventation and cure

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder where in human body does not produce or properly uses insulin which is essential to convert glucose , starches and other carbohydrates into energy. Glucose comes from the foods we eat and is the major source of energy needed to fuel the body's functions.
After we eat a meal, our body breaks down the foods we eat into glucose and other nutrients, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream from the gastrointestinal tract. The glucose level in the blood rises after a meal and triggers the pancreas to make the hormone insulin and release it into the bloodstream. But in people with diabetes, the body either can't make or can't respond to insulin properly.

What is High Blood Sugar-
  • Normal blood sugar: 65 -140.
  • High blood sugar: 250-350
  • Very high blood sugar: (over 350)
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas * (a gland that releases a digestive juice into the intestine) and is needed to convert sugar, starches and other food into energy needed for daily life. Only 5-10% of people with diabetes have this form of the disease. 
* In general the pancreas is composed of cells, which produce digestive enzymes, and hormones.

Insulin works like a key that opens the doors to cells and allows the glucose in. Without insulin, glucose can't get into the cells (the doors are "locked" and there is no key) and so it stays in the bloodstream. As a result, the level of sugar in the blood remains higher than normal. High blood sugar levels are a problem because they can cause a number of health problems. Lack of insulin causes diabetes mellitus (a disease characterized by excess sugar in the blood and other body fluids).

There are two major types of diabetes:- Type 1 and Type 2.
Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes cause blood sugar levels to become higher than normal. But they cause it in different ways.
Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, and was previously known as juvenile diabetes. The pancreas loses its ability to make the hormone insulin so the body does not produce insulin.
In type 1 diabetes, the person's own immune system attacks and destroys the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Once those cells are destroyed, they won't ever make insulin again.
Although no one knows for certain why this happens, scientists think it has something to do with genes. But just getting the genes for diabetes isn't usually enough.
Type 1 diabetes can't be prevented, and by astrology there is only the practical way to predict who will get it. There is nothing that either a parent or the child did to cause the disease. Once a person has type 1 diabetes, it does not go away and requires lifelong treatment. Kids and teens very young adult with type 1 diabetes depend on daily insulin injections or an insulin pump to control their blood glucose levels.

Signs and Symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes

A person can have diabetes without knowing it because the symptoms aren't always obvious and they can take a long time to develop. Type 1 diabetes may come on gradually or suddenly.
Parents of a child with typical symptoms of type 1 diabetes may notice that their child:
Urinates frequently. The kidneys respond to high levels of glucose in the bloodstream by flushing out the extra glucose in urine. A child with diabetes needs to urinate more frequently and in larger volumes.
Abnormally thirsty. Because the child is losing so much fluid from peeing so much, he or she becomes very thirsty to help avoid becoming dehydrated. A child who has developed diabetes drinks a lot in an attempt to keep the level of body water normal.
Loses weight (or fails to gain weight they grow) in spite of a good appetite. Kids and teens who develop type 1 diabetes may have an increased appetite, but often lose weight. This is because the body breaks down muscle and stored fat in an attempt to provide fuel to the hungry cells.
Often feels tired because the body can't use glucose for energy properly.
Type 2 diabetes (formerly called non-insulin-dependent diabetes or adult-onset diabetes) is different from type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes results from the body's inability to respond to insulin normally. Unlike people with type 1 diabetes, most people with type 2 diabetes can still produce insulin, but their body does not respond correctly to insulin. This is called insulin resistance. Insulin resistance means that fat, liver, and muscle cells do not respond normally to insulin. As a result blood sugar does not get into cells to be stored for energy. When sugar cannot enter cells and levels of sugar build up in the blood. This is called hyperglycemia. High levels of blood sugar often promote the pancreas to produce more and more insulin.

Signs and Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes

Increased thirst
Slow healing infections
Erectile dysfunction
Increased appetite (especially after eating)
Dry mouth
Frequent urination
Unexplained weight loss (even though you are eating and feel hungry)
Fatigue (weak, tired feeling)
Blurred vision
Headaches

When blood sugar level is constantly high it can lead to kidney failure, cardiovascular problems . It is said that Patients with diabetes are 4 times more likely to have coronary heart disease and strokes.

The liver which metabolise glucose and the pancreas which produces insulin are located in the upper part of the abdomen. And this area falls in 5th house of Horoscope. Jupiter is the significator of the liver and Venus if the significator of pancreas
