Propaganda and political manipulation and lies
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the pancreas, the gland located behind the stomach, does not produce enough insulin. In this case, it is impossible to maintain a normal blood glucose level. The pathology can also occur when the body is unable to use the insulin produced, a situation called insulin resistance. There are many risk factors associated with type 2 diabetes, and each of them can increase the chances of a person being diagnosed with this condition
Age is one of these risk factors and is strongly influenced by ethnicity. Being older than 40 years is considered a risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes in whites. However, these numbers fluctuate. Being over 25 years old is a risk factor for South Asian, Chinese, Afro-Caribbean and Black African populations. Age increases the risk due to the possibility of weight gain and lack of exercise. Genetics also plays a role in the disease
A close relative, such as a sibling with type 2 diabetes, is at a risk of 1 in 3 developing the disease. Finally, being overweight or obese is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes. As humans, our body is extremely well adapted to our environment, including how we move and the foods we choose. to eat. Moving well, lifting weights, and eating healthy foods will have a positive effect on our epigenetic expression, and will lead to a state of well-being
However, doing the opposite can lead to weight gain and associated chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes. A body mass index (BMI) of 25 places an individual in overweight cases, and a BMI of 30 or more places it in the case of obese, which further increases the risk of type 2 diabetes. However, Asian people with a BMI of 23 or higher, are at increased risk, while Asian people with BMI is 27.5 or higher, are even more at risk. The fat stored around the abdomen can significantly increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes
Fats stored in this area of the body release chemicals that can disrupt the body's cardiovascular and metabolic system. It can also increase the risk of developing other serious diseases such as coronary heart disease, stroke, and some forms of cancer When we look at the facts and read the scientific literature, we find that cannabis is an extremely potent and complex drug that works with the body in a very powerful and specific way. This is done via the endocannabinoid system, a network of receptors that are activated by the molecules found in the cannabis plant How can this plant prevent and probably treat diabetes?
The main mechanism may involve weight management, an important factor when considering the extremely close relationship between obesity, BMI, and type 2 diabetes. This may seem surprising, considering some of the stereotypes associated with cannabis, such as overeating, laziness, and lack of exercise METABOLISM OF CARBOHYDRATES. One of the reasons cannabis can be linked to a healthy weight is due to enhanced carbohydrate metabolism. Murray Mittleman, an associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, was quoted as saying, "the most important finding is that current cannabis users seemed to have better carbohydrate metabolism than non-consumers"
