Many diabetic patients do not know that glycated hemoglobin is the result of long-term control. I usually don’t pay attention to blood sugar control, and only start taking medicine and diet control when I need to see an outpatient clinic. I hope to control my blood sugar in an ideal state and deceive the medical staff. In fact, the doctor only needs to draw blood to test the patient’s glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) Did the patient take the medicine on time and do a good job in diet control? (The result of knowing is to take more medicine, so what?)
What exactly is glycosylated hemoglobin that allows patients to reveal their true colors in front of doctors? Professor Lin Ruixiang said that hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells. Its main function is to bring oxygen to tissues and take carbon dioxide away from tissues. Glucose can be attached to hemoglobin until the red blood cells are destroyed; the average lifespan of red blood cells is about 4 months, and the hemoglobin attached by glucose is called glycated hemoglobin.
Glucose moves freely through the red blood cells and is chemically attached to the hemoglobin, with a small amount of glucose permanently attached to the hemoglobin in each red blood cell. The higher the blood sugar, the more sugar is permanently attached to the hemoglobin, so the percentage of glycosylated hemoglobin can reflect the average blood sugar concentration during the life of red blood cells. Taking 100% hemoglobin as an example, the ratio of glucose to hemoglobin in normal people is 4-6%, but in diabetics, the ratio is 7-8%, or even as high as 16-20%.
Comment
In the past, Western medicine has always said that high blood sugar can cause heart disease and stroke. Now it is said that blood sugar is too high and worse, and it is more likely to cause heart disease. What should we do? , so I advise patients to take traditional Chinese medicine better, and then they need to make changes in their diet, do not eat midnight snacks, do not eat Western fast food burgers, do more exercise and walk, as long as they eat three meals normally, do not eat too much, the best Taboo overeating, do not drink coffee, cola, etc. Of course, do not drink milk, so that you can keep your thin body forever, and your blood sugar will naturally be normal. Once you have severe thirst, easy hunger, or loss of sexual function, you should seek medical attention. Chinese medicine.
Use blood sugar control methods to keep blood sugar always normal. This is difficult to do. Blood sugar will have different values before and after meals. The best way is to maintain normal visceral functions and use hypoglycemic drugs and insulin. As a result, the pancreas will only degenerate faster. When the pancreas degenerates completely one day, it will be necessary to increase the use of insulin. Later, there will be problems with eyesight and numbness in the feet, and once it is infected, it will be amputated. The consequences of western medicine have nothing to do with diabetes. In addition to showing that Western medicine is useless, this report is still trying to shirk responsibility.
