WHO states that the active work is the livelihood component and subsequently, at every point in life, it procures any condition related to the health, inclusive of diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. The risk of diabetes type 2 arises when an individual’s weight starts increasing at an every stage of the age. Obesity affected diabetes is much more harmful than the one with an ordinary weight.
Horrifying routines of the food consumption and smoking are the unhealthy ways of livelihood. These habits increase the risk of diabetes type 2. Work culture primarily night shift culture is one the major reasons behind the risk factors of diabetes type 2. Smoking of cigarettes should also be avoided as it has more propensity of being diseased with diabetes type 2 than the non-smokers.
Evolution of Do It Yourself (DIY) Devices
The technologies related to diabetes have been revolutionizing at a very fast pace over the last decade in order to enhance the quality of life and to expand durability of subjects with diabetes. Many of these readily available devices were too costly to afford, in spite of having admirable advancements between them. Moreover, these devices were incorporated with several issues such as infusion set management, user friendliness, blockages of cannula, and Bluetooth connectivity. There is still a race to pursue appropriate and user friendly system going on. Developments in pumps, Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs), prognostics procedures are able to make shut loop system possible physiologically with more than 90% to 95 % Terminal Intervention Ration (TIR) and less time invested in glucose deficiency disorder. Do It Yourself-Artificial Pancreas System (DIY-APS) has shared a few of the promising witnesses. This Do It Yourself (DIY) evolution has induced all the producers of devices to unveil Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) pumps and harmonious sensors. However, the main goal of these manufacturers is to create artificial pancreas which will be able to have 100% TIR and no time beneath range and should be afforded by everyone.
