122 - ) Values
Values are the
positive teachings provided to help us and tread the right path in life. Every
parent wants his child to imbibe these. These can even be referred to as good
qualities. A person who imbibes good values grows on to become a responsible individual
and he is capable of demarcating right and wrong. Also, he is able to make
wiser decisions in life.
For an individual, values
are most important. An individual with good values is loved by everyone around
as he is compassionate about others and also he behaves ethically. A person is
able to judge what is right and what is wrong based on the values he imbibes.
In life at various steps, it makes the decision-making process easier. A person
with good values is always likely to make better decisions than others.
In life, values give us
clear goals. They always tell us how we should behave and act in different
situations and give the right direction to our life. In life, a person with
good values can take better charge. If a person wants a strong character, then
he has to possess good values such as honesty, loyalty, reliability,
efficiency, consistency, compassion, determination, and courage. Values always
help in building our character. If you want a better society then people need
to bear good values. Values play an important role in society. They only need
to do their hard work, with compassion, honesty, and other values. Such people
will help in the growth of society and make it a much better place to live.
Values are
always based on various things. While the basic values remain the same across
cultures and are intact since centuries some values may vary. Values may be
specific to a society or age. In the past, it was considered that women with
good moral values must stay at home and not voice their opinion on anything but
however, this has changed over time. Our culture and society determine the
values to a large extent. We imbibe values during our childhood years and they
remain with us throughout our life.
Family
always plays the most important role in rendering values to us. Decisions in
life are largely based on the values we possess. Values are permanent and
seldom change. A person is always known by the values he possesses. The values
of a person always reflect on his attitude and overall personality.
While values are
of great importance and we are all aware of the same unfortunately people these
days are so engrossed in making money and building a good lifestyle that they
often overlook the importance of values. At the age when children must be
taught good values, they are taught to fight and survive in this competitive
world. Their academics and performance in other activities are given importance
over their values. Parents, as well as teachers, teach them how to take on each
other and win by any means instead of inculcating good sportsman spirit in them
and teaching them values such as integrity, compassion, and patience. Children
always look up to their elders as their role models and it is unfortunate that
elders these days have a lack of values. Therefore the children learn the same.
In order to help him grow into a responsible and wise human being, it is
important for people to realize that values must be given topmost priority in a
child’s life because children are the future of the society. There can be
nothing better in a society where a majority of people have good values and
they follow the ethical norms.
123 –) Diabetes
Diabetes is a very
common disease in the world. But people may never realize, how did they get
diabetes and what will happen to them and what will they go through. It may not
be your problem but you have to show respect and care for the one who has
diabetes. It can help them and also benefited you to know more about it and
have a better understanding of it. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder which is
identified by the high blood sugar level. Increased blood glucose level damages
the vital organs as well as other organs of the human’s body causing other
potential health ailments.
Diabetes Mellitus can be
described in two types: 1) Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus is classified by a
deficiency of insulin in the blood. The deficiency is caused by the loss of
insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This type of diabetes is found
more commonly in children. An abnormally high or low blood sugar level is a
characteristic of this type of Diabetes. Most patients of type 1 diabetes
require
regular administration of insulin. Type 1 diabetes is also hereditary
from your parents. You are most likely to have type 1 diabetes if any of your
parents had it. Frequent urination, thirst, weight loss, and constant hunger
are common symptoms of this.
2) Type 2
Diabetes Mellitus is characterized by the inefficiency of body tissues to
effectively respond to insulin because of this it may be combined by insulin
deficiency. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common type of diabetes in
people. People with type 2 diabetes mellitus take medicines to improve the
body’s responsiveness to insulin or to reduce the glucose produced by the
liver. This type of diabetes mellitus is generally attributed to lifestyle
factors like – obesity, low physical activity, irregular and unhealthy diet,
excess consumption of sugar in the form of sweets, drinks, etc.
By the process of digestion, food that
we eat is broken down into useful compounds. One of these compounds is glucose,
usually referred to as blood sugar. The blood performs the job of carrying
glucose to the cells of the body. But mere carrying the glucose to the cells by
blood isn’t enough for the cells to absorb glucose. This is the job of the
Insulin hormone. Pancreas supply insulin in the human body. Insulin acts as a
bridge for glucose to transit from blood to the body cells. The problem arises
when the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin or the body cells for some
reason do not receive the glucose. Both the cases result in the excess of
glucose in the blood, which is referred to as Diabetes or Diabetes Mellitus.
Most common symptoms of
diabetes are fatigue, irritation, stress, tiredness, frequent urination and
headache including loss of strength and stamina, weight loss, increase in
appetite, etc.
There are two
types of blood sugar levels – fasting blood sugar level and postprandial blood
sugar level. The fasting sugar level is the sugar level that we measure after
fasting for at least eight hours generally after an overnight fast. Blood sugar
level below 100 mg/dL before eating food is considered normal. Postprandial
glucose level or PP level is the sugar level which we measure after two hours
of eating. The PP blood sugar level should be below 140 mg/dL, two hours after
the meals. Though the maximum limit in both the cases is defined, the
permissible levels may vary among individuals. The range of the sugar level
varies with people. Different people have different sugar level such as some
people may have normal fasting sugar level of 60 mg/dL while some may have a
normal value of 90 mg/dL.
Diabetes causes severe
health consequences and it also affects vital body organs. Excessive glucose in
blood damages kidneys, blood vessels, skin resulting in various cardiovascular
and skin diseases and other ailments. Diabetes damages the kidneys, resulting
in the accumulation of impurities in the body. It also damages the heart’s
blood vessels increasing the possibility of a heart attack. Apart from damaging
vital organs, diabetes may also cause various skin infections and the infection
in other parts of the body. The prime cause of all type of infections is the
decreased immunity of body cells due to their inability to absorb glucose.
Diabetes is a serious
life-threatening disease and must be constantly monitored and effectively
subdued with proper medication and by adapting to a healthy lifestyle. By
following a healthy lifestyle, regular checkups, and proper medication we can
observe a healthy and long life.
