14 Nov Dia Mundial de la Diabetes

La OMS advierte en el Dia Mundial de la Diabetes de que los casos se habrán duplicado en 2030.

La OMS recuerda que una mala alimentación y la obesidad son dos factores importantes en esta enfermedad, que se produce cuando el páncreas no produce suficiente insulina o cuando el cuerpo no puede utilizar de forma efectiva esa insulina.

El azúcar en la sangre es un efecto común de la diabetes, que lleva con el tiempo a graves daños en muchos de los sistemas del cuerpo.

Cada día, 200 niños menores de 14 años son afectados por la diabetes de tipo 1, una condición autoinmune para la cuál no existen medidas de prevención, y los casos aumentan un 3 por ciento cada año.

En los niños en edad preescolar, este aumento es del 6 por ciento anual.

La campaña de este año quiere concienciar al público sobre algunos de los síntomas precursores de la diabetes de tipo 1, como son:

  • orinar frecuentemente,
  • una pérdida rápida de peso,
  • falta de energía o cansancio y
  • mucha sed

La diabetes de tipo 2, asociada al sobrepeso y a la falta de ejercicio, se ha considerado un problema de adultos, pero cada vez se diagnostica más en niños.

Por eso es tan importante una buena alimentación y el ejercicio físico desde edades tempranas, lamentablemente nuestra sociedad no alienta a los más pequeños a esto precisamente. Es también un reto de los educadores, padres y madres que nuestros hijos lleven una vida saludable en todos sus aspectos.

Para evitar la diabetes de tipo 2 y sus complicaciones hay que:

  • Alcanzar y mantener un peso corporal normal.
  • Mantener la actividad física: al menos 30 minutos de actividad física regular de intensidad moderada la mayoría de los días. Para reducir el peso es necesaria una mayor actividad.

El diagnóstico temprano se puede lograr mediante análisis de sangre relativamente baratos.

El tratamiento de la diabetes consiste en reducir la glucemia y otros factores de riesgo conocidos que dañan los vasos sanguíneos. Para evitar las complicaciones también es importante dejar de fumar.

El Día Mundial de la Diabetes se celebra el 14 de noviembre para conmemorar el aniversario del nacimiento de Frederick Banting, quien, junto con Charles Best, tuvo un papel determinante en el descubrimiento en 1922 de la insulina, la hormona que permite tratar a los diabéticos y salvarles la vida.

Para celebrar la jornada, unos 800 monumentos en todo el mundo se iluminarán con color azul, el símbolo de la diabetes.
