Test Medica One Step Home Scan Diabetes Heath Screen - 2 Tests TestMedica One Step Diabetes Health Screen checks for glucose in the urine. Glucose is not normally found in the urine; however, very small amounts may be found after the ingestion of large amounts of sweets. In most cases, any glucose found in a random urine sample should be investigated. Glucose in the urine is a warning signal for diabetes.There is also a serious condition, known as Low Renal Threshold, in which the kidneys allow glucose to be excreted. Any amount of glucose detected in the urine should be reported to your doctor or health care provider. Risk Factors for DiabetesDiabetes mellitus is a disorder characterized by abnormally high blood glucose levels. People with diabetes cannot properly process glucose, a sugar the body uses for energy. As a result, glucose tends to move inefficiently from the bloodstream to the tissues of the body where it is needed. Therefore, at the same time blood glucose levels are elevated, the rest of the body can be starved for glucose. Diabetes can lead to poor wound healing, higher risk of infections, and damage to the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart. In type 1 diabetes, also called childhood-onset or insulin-dependent diabetes, damage to the pancreas results in an inability of that organ to make the hormone insulin. Most risk factors discussed in this section do not apply to type 1 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is also called adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. In people with this condition, the pancreas is capable of making normal amounts of the hormone insulin. Despite the presence of normal or even elevated levels of insulin in type 2 diabetes patients, however, the body does not efficiently move glucose out of the bloodstream and into the cells. This lack of sensitivity to insulin is called insulin resistancethe hallmark of type 2 diabetes. Minimize

Stress-related insomnia, snoring and sleep apnea are among the top reasons Americans are losing sleep, according to the National Sleep Foundation. Continued sleep deprivation over two nights or more can have an adverse effect on your mental and physical health, as well as on such conditions as diabetes, obesity and high blood pressure.Why do we sleep?The inability to get a good nights sleep can result in both health and safety hazards. Researchers say that when we are deprived of our suggested eight hours of sleep, we subject ourselves to irritability, attention deficits and a compromised immune system. Recent research has isolated products of the body's immune system that seem to be sleep-inducers and may be a good indication that the body needs to sleep to help support and even regenerate its immune system.Possible Causes of Poor Sleep: Stress (mental or emotional), daily anxiety, physical challenges including restless legs, caffeine intake, irregular schedules, alcohol and nicotine consumption, occasional pain and discomfort.Effects of SleeplessnessDifficulties falling asleep and staying asleep affects more than 84 million people! It is characterized by difficulty initiating or maintaining a deep, refreshing sleep, waking up throughout the night, waking up early and being unable to get back to sleep, and waking up feeling tired or un-refreshed. The day following a sleepless night may cause symptoms which may affect your mood, be a source of anxiety, result in a lower level of physical and mental well-being, and cause unwanted changes in your usual level of concentration, memory and ability to accomplish more challenges and tasks. The National Commission on Sleep Disorders indicated in a 1998 report that sleep deprivation costs billions of dollars annually in accidents and lost productivity, higher stress, shortened tempers, overall fatigue, lower motivation, slower reflexes and more mistakes.Sugg Minimize
