What happens in the body after 36 hours without food?

The article discusses the effects of a 36-hour fast on the human body, citing medical expert Dr. Donald Grant. It explains that after this period, the body begins using stored fat for energy due to depleted glucose reserves, which can lead to symptoms such as headaches, weakness, fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating. The article also highlights risks associated with prolonged fasting, particularly for individuals with chronic health conditions, those taking medication, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers. It emphasizes the importance of hydration and consulting a doctor if

TRI UOČLJIVA znaka dijabetesa mogu se pojaviti odmah nakon buđenja, a mnogi ih zanemaruju jer simptomi ne moraju nužno stvarati osjećaj bolesti, upozorava farmaceut Abbas Kanani. Zbog toga velik broj ljudi nije ni svjestan da ima dijabetes.

Tri jutarnja znaka za uzbunu

Kanani je za Express.co.uk istaknuo tri tjelesna osjeta koja mogu upućivati na dijabetes tipa 2, a najočitiji su upravo ujutro. "Mogli biste primijetiti pojačanu žeđ, glad ili osjećaj da morate često mokriti", pojasnio je. Prekomjerna žeđ, stručno nazvana polidipsija, jedan je od prvih simptoma dijabetesa. Iako je povremena žeđ normalna, stalna ili neuobičajeno jaka žeđ - čak i nakon unosa tekućine - može biti znak upozorenja.

Drugi pokazatelj je polifagija, odnosno prekomjerna glad. Kod dijabetesa tipa 2 tijelo teško koristi energiju iz hrane, što može rezultirati stalnim i nadjačavajućim osjećajem gladi. Treći simptom koji farmaceut naglašava je poliurija, odnosno potreba za mokrenjem češće nego inače.

Ostali simptomi na koje treba obratiti pozornost

Britanski Nacionalni zdravstveni sustav (NHS) navodi i druge česte simptome dijabetesa tipa 2. To su osjećaj velikog umora, gubitak tjelesne težine bez namjere, zamagljen vid te sporo zacjeljivanje posjekotina ili rana. Također se mogu javiti svrbež oko genitalija ili česte gljivične infekcije. Ovi simptomi jednaki su kod odraslih i djece, a ako se i pojave, mogu se razvijati postupno.

Kada posjetiti liječnika i zašto je doručak važan

NHS preporučuje da se što prije obratite svom liječniku opće prakse ako primijetite bilo koji simptom koji bi mogao ukazivati na dijabetes. Jednostavan test krvi može potvrditi ili isključiti to stanje. Za one kojima je dijabetes već dijagnosticiran, Kanani naglašava važnost doručka za održavanje razine šećera u krvi pod kontrolom.

"Razina šećera u krvi prirodno je viša kad se probudimo i općenito se preporučuje doručkovati unutar sat do sat i pol nakon buđenja", savjetovao je.

Three Morning Signs of Diabetes You Need to Pay Attention to

The article discusses three early morning symptoms that could indicate type 2 diabetes: increased thirst, excessive hunger, and frequent urination. These signs were highlighted by pharmacist Abbas Kanani, who warns that many people overlook these symptoms because they do not necessarily cause an immediate feeling of illness.
