Is diabetes hereditary?

  Many studies have shown that diabetes is a combination of multiple causes. Because the incidence of diabetes is higher in relatives of diabetics than in relatives of non-diabetics, then it suggests a genetic predisposition to diabetes.       If only one parent has diabetes, the chances of having a child with diabetes are even lower, and it is often inherited across generations. Studies have shown that diabetes is not inherited from a single gene, but from multiple mutations. The genetic predisposition to diabetes is not the disease itself, but rather a susceptibility to diabetes, and certain environmental factors must be present for diabetes to occur.  A bad lifestyle is worse than heredity!  Most diabetes is the result of the interaction of genetic and environmental factors and can be prevented! It is the acquired lifestyle that really causes the disease, such as a high-fat, high-sugar diet, smoking, and sedentary lifestyle that can trigger diabetes. In addition, blood lipids, blood pressure and blood sugar can interact with each other, and people with high blood pressure and high blood lipids have a higher risk of developing diabetes than normal people.  Changing bad habits can keep diabetes away!  To prevent diabetes, keep in mind the four “ones”: In addition to heredity, if there is no external influence, the probability of getting the disease will be much lower. Therefore, people who have a family history of diabetes should put down their burden and do the four “ones” to delay or avoid the disease as much as possible.  More knowledge: to strengthen their knowledge of diabetes, not only the dangers of the disease, but also to know the preventive measures, in order to do a good job of disease prevention.  Eat a little less: It means that the total calorie intake should be a little less, the main food should be less, especially the high-calorie side food should also be less. Do not think that “can eat is blessing”, in fact, “scientific eating is blessing”.  Move more: obesity is an important factor in diabetes, when more and more fat accumulates in the body, various cardiovascular diseases will also come.  Health tips: types of obesity apple-shaped obesity: the stomach is particularly large, the limbs are thin, fat are piled up in the heart, pancreas, liver and kidneys around, the body is greatly affected, easy to get diabetes.  Pear-shaped obesity: fat mainly accumulates in the buttocks and thighs, this kind of obesity has relatively little impact on health.  Take it easy A good mindset has a positive effect on diabetes prevention. Imbalance of diet and exercise will strengthen insulin resistance and promote the occurrence of diabetes. And along with mental tension, emotional excitement and various stressful conditions, it will cause a large secretion of glucagon and accelerate the development of diabetes.
