Symptoms

To understand diabetes, it helps to know something about the pancreas. Pancreas is long, thin and located behind the stomach. Pancreas responsible for regulating the body’s use of glucose. The pancreas will create a number of chemicals including insulin to regulate body’s glucose. When blood glucose levels begin to rise, it is insulin’s job to prod muscle and fat cells to absorb whatever glucose they need for future activities; the liver stores any surplus.

The average American gets two or three colds and one bout of flu each year. If you suffer from more than this, there’s a chance you may have a poorly functioning immune system - which increases your susceptibility to infectious illnesses. Some people are born with weak immune systems, while others undermine their immunity with heavy drinking, poor diet, recreational drug use, smoking, or chronic stress.

Symptoms

High blood cholesterol refers to high levels of fat in the blood. Blame the condition on a fatty diet, heredity, alcoholism, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, or a combination thereof - whatever the cause, the condition is dangerous. Gummy in texture, fat thickens blood and gets stuck on artery walls, thus increasing one’s risk of coronary artery disease, heart attack, and stroke. Symptoms can include chest pain, lethargy, pallor and shortness of breath. However, the condition is often asymptomatic; many individuals learn they have high cholesterol only after a routine blood test.
