As we all know, vaccines are an important line of defense to protect human health, from the early cowpox and smallpox vaccines to today's new coronavirus vaccines, vaccines play a pivotal role in the fight against diseases.
It is rumored that after the injection of diabetes vaccine, the consumption of some diabetes drugs can be reduced or even eliminated, which is undoubtedly like seeing the light of day for the majority of diabetic patients. However, is a diabetes vaccine really available? After an injection, can you really say goodbye to the drug?
A major breakthrough has been made in vaccine technology, and the research and development of diabetes "vaccines" is based on the concept of stimulating the human immune system to produce specific immune responses against diabetes-related antigens, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling blood sugar, reducing the burden of pancreatic islets, and improving insulin resistance.
Although this "vaccine" is not a preventive vaccine in the traditional sense, its mechanism of action is still to achieve the effect by regulating the body's immune system.
Diabetes vaccines are primarily intended for people with type 1 diabetes and are only effective for people with diabetes with specific genetic variants.
The efficacy of this vaccine is closely related to autoantibodies to a pancreatic protein called GAD65. This antibody is one of the key markers of diabetes and destroys insulin-producing cells. Once the vaccine is administered, the immune system of people with type 1 diabetes can be "trained" to stop destroying the GAD protein.
Although this type of vaccine has been very successful in animal experiments, it is not yet officially available, and after doctors have diagnosed diabetes, they will take the medicine according to the different types.
However, before the diabetes vaccine is available, patients need to control their blood sugar by injecting insulin or taking drugs, which means that for diabetic patients, in addition to receiving long-term ** and management, they also need to actively cooperate with the doctor's ** plan, strictly control diet and exercise to keep blood sugar stable.
Unfortunately, even if this vaccine has been developed, it has nothing to do with the vast majority of diabetic patients, knowing that more than 95% of diabetic patients belong to type II diabetes, which is caused by the long-term high load of pancreatic islet cells, and has nothing to do with autoimmune diseases and coxsackievirus.
Physiologically speaking, the diabetes vaccine only controls insulin to reduce blood sugar concentrations, and cannot be injected to protect eternal life.
1.Keep moving
There are many ways to lower blood sugar, especially exercising is the key to stabilizing blood sugar. Many people are obese, and various body indicators begin to change, and the function of pancreatic islets may decrease, resulting in an increase in blood sugar.
But now many people have become lazy, do not like to exercise, are accustomed to a comfortable life, want to exercise and have no motivation, after a long time of lack of exercise and obesity, the probability of diabetes is high.
If you want to seriously lower your blood sugar, it is important to exercise enough, and you should use more free time to exercise to promote calorie consumption and maintain blood sugar stability.
2.In terms of diet, the staple food should be thick and thin
Blood sugar and diet are closely related, if you want to lower blood sugar, especially after meals, you must reduce the glycemic ability of food. In the staple food, coarse grains such as oats, buckwheat, mung beans, and red beans are added to refined staple foods such as rice and noodles, and vinegar is added at the same time to reduce the glycemic ability of food. It is recommended to mix coarse and fine grains in a ratio of 6:4.
3.Get more sun and vitamin D
Vitamin D plays an important role in blood sugar regulation. Spending more time in the sun can promote the synthesis of vitamin D in the body and maintain blood sugar stability.
Reasonable sun exposure, 15-30 minutes a day, be careful not to bask in the sun during strong ultraviolet rays to avoid damage. In addition, we can also consume foods rich in vitamin D, such as fish, shrimp, egg yolk and milk, in moderation.
4.Monitor your blood sugar regularly
People with high blood sugar must self-monitor their blood sugar, which can accurately reflect the actual blood sugar level of the body, and then adjust their diet and exercise according to the test results, so as to prevent diabetes complications. Blood glucose is usually monitored two hours after three meals a day, before meals, and at night and before bedtime.
1.Black fungus
It is found that diabetes has formed, and suitable foods should be selected to obtain nutrients during the diet, especially black fungus, which can be eaten more appropriately.
Black fungus contains agaricular polysaccharides and mannan, which are available in sufficient quantities to help improve the function of pancreatic islets and promote insulin secretion.
Blood sugar will slowly decrease when insulin secretion increases, which is a relatively common food for blood sugar control. Therefore, in the process of maintaining blood sugar stability, it is recommended that diabetic patients eat more black fungus.
2.Bitter melon
Bitter gourd is a vegetable that we often eat in our daily life, in fact, it can bring a lot of benefits to the body for a long time, especially for female friends who eat bitter gourd, which can play a role in beauty and delay aging.
Bitter gourd is relatively rich in nutrients, and its practical value is also very high, if there is a high blood sugar, it is recommended to often bring bitter gourd to the table.
To a certain extent, it may be able to help stabilize blood sugar, and at the same time, it can also improve the activity and sensitivity of insulin and reduce the burden on the body.
3.Legumes
Legumes such as soybeans, black beans, red beans, etc., are rich in protein, dietary fiber and trace elements, and have a low glycemic index. Legumes can be eaten as protein** with staple foods to help control blood sugar. In addition, the isoflavones in legumes have antioxidant effects and are beneficial for cardiovascular health.
4.Asparagus
For patients with high blood sugar, Lunsun belongs to the "fermented carbohydrate", which can stimulate people to reduce appetite, which is conducive to **, asparagus can also improve insulin sensitivity, so that human muscles and body tissues can increase the absorption rate of glucose, so as to better control blood sugar levels. Therefore, it is recommended that diabetics can eat some asparagus on a regular basis.
5.Cauliflower
Cauliflower can also be boiled to have a delicious taste, so many people like to eat it. Moreover, cauliflower is rich in the mineral chromium, which can effectively regulate blood sugar and improve glucose tolerance.
However, it should be reminded that cauliflower should not be overcooked and rotten, otherwise it will lead to the loss of nutrients.
