What's Up With My Triglycerides?
Perhaps it is because I am getting older that I think cartoons are not what they used to be. I have five young children, all boys. Like any concerned parent I govern what they watch. I have found that some of the most detrimental shows on television...

It Pays to be Prepared
Having diabetes can change to life of person entirely. From the
way one chooses the foods that he will eat to the way he lives
his daily life, everything will change. For someone who doesn't
know much about diabetes there are a lot of webs sites,
magazines, and books that can help you understand better of the
nature of diabetes.
The greatest problem for diabetics is not being able to access
medication when emergency situations occur. That is why, it is
important to always have an emergency kit at hand. To keep the
medicines from expiring, use them from time to time and replace
them with new refills. The emergency kit can include cold
medications, antacids, cough syrup, test strips and insulin with
syringes if you use one and blood glucose monitoring supplies.
If you will purchase over the counter medicines, make sure to
read the label before using it. If there is a warning that
diabetic people should consult their doctor before using the
product, then do so. If you have these emergency kits at home,
try to also have it at work or at school.
It is also essential to include in the emergency kit your
medical history, prescription medications and emergency
contacts. To keep them from getting wet, keep them in a
water
proof bags. If you are using insulin keep extra syringes,
glucagons emergency kit and urine ketone strips. A glucagon
emergency kit consists of a syringe filled with liquid which
must be mixed with a powder. This kit is only used in case of a
Severe Hypoglycemic Emergency. Try also to keep the insulin in a
cool place as much as possible to keep it from being damaged.
For people who got caught in the Katrina and Rita hurricane
disaster, being prepared made the difference between life and
death. And for people with diabetes, being prepared is important
to their own personal safety and health. Hence, the best thing a
diabetic person can do to prevent any problem with diabetes is
to live a healthy lifestyle. It is important to eat healthy
foods and have a regular exercise to keep blood pressures at
normal and reduce the risk of heart disease and other serious
conditions. And most importantly, have emergency kits close at
hand at all times.
