Diabetes widespread among older Canadian Somalis.

[lone]

You should all familiarize yourselves with the types of diabetes and drug administration.

I have seen a lot of Somalis here affected with diabetes.

Type 2 ( Fake diabetes ) can be treated with lifestyle changes.

Monitor and help educate the elderly in your family.

"help educate the elderly" right after referring to Type 2 diabetes as "Fake Diabetes"

By fake he means it 100% reversible, and he's right.

but in all seriousness, DM is one of those conditions that really needs more awareness in our community. Its I wouldn't say cure but lifestyle changes can help control this condition but typically medication

By fake he means it 100% reversible, and he's right.

lol I get the joke..

but in all seriousness, DM is one of those conditions that really needs more awareness in our community. Lifestyle changes can help control this condition but most pts will require medications to achieve better control.

Higher blood sugar level associated with obesity is reversible but regular diabetes ain't reversible.

Not surprised somalis tend to be fat AS f*ck, mainly the older women, they have a weird wobbly walk as well. It's cause they lack vitamin D and as a result their bones weaken..

LOOOL..no, its not due to vitamin D deficiency..its mainly poor diet coupled with a sedentary lifestyle.

I'm sure it has some great nutritional properties however it's not some magic cure that many ppl making it out to be.. especially for diabetes. Its terrible for diabetics not a substitute for medicine, exercise and a healthy diet.

type 2 diabetes: is where you have high blood sugar and no pancreas to produce insulin, its why patience need insulin shots.

extreme low blood sugar = ketogenic diet = minimum insulin requirements = no insulin shot = no drugs = no type 2 diabetes

so the cure is absolutely no mac macaan, no baasto, no bariis, no canjeelo, no jabaati no sabaayad, no timir, no shah cadeys oo sokor leh.

so for a somali there is probably no cure, unless they give up everything and eat fat, meat and very low gi veggies.
