Panic is a bad advisor, though, so I was thankful it was very cool and windy, so I could talk myself out of doing too much. Still, over an hour/6k Nordic walking is pretty good. Also did it "properly", with Adriene's yoga warm-up and cool-down 🙂.

A perfect diet plan helps you to maintain your weight and keep you in shape.

Pain

Like injections and needles.

But the emotional pain is far more

Fatal.

Most people get better when they're sick.

I won't.

And that realisation doesn't come in the beginning.

No,

It comes at two in the morning

While drinking juice to stay alive.

It comes after four

Or ten

Or fifty years of injections

Everyday.

It comes while being rushed to hospital

At age eight

And twenty four

And fifty two

And it never stops

You'll stop walking at eighty,

I'll stop living at seventy.

You say you'd rather

Die

Than take injections?

I

Didn't

Get

A

Choice.

But my struggle isn't overcoming

Diabetes

It's rising above the stereotypes

Fighting for my medication

Convincing doctors that I'm

Actually trying

My struggle is seeing the pain

In my mother

Seeing her feel the pain of

A mother with a sick child

A child who will never get better

But through her pain she's brave

She feels the pain I feel it

Had to be strong for the both of us

Because she knows that if she

Can be brave and hopeful so can

I

My struggle is holding a little

Diabetic girls hand while she cries

Only. Six. Years. Old.

Waiting for an ambulance to

Take her somewhere that will

Only temporarily stop the pain

Her struggle is being so young

But knowing the weight of

Living with this, but just wanting

To be normal

Coming to a camp happy

Leaving half comatose

Six

Years

Old.

My struggle is seeing people

Living with this sickness

And then not.

I am diabetic

But diabetes is not

My

Struggle.

People frequently experience pain and swelling, which makes even the smallest task extremely difficult. Arthritis is frequently accompanied by chronic pain and swelling, which are more prevalent in older people and particularly in women. However, the disease has been identified in both men and women of all ages, and the incidence appears to be rising.

People who experience chronic pain and inflammation bravely lead active lives while seeking treatment to lessen the pain brought on by their condition.

As with many chronic diseases, treating chronic pain and inflammation is unfortunately not always effective or risk-free over the long term, and medications that are used to treat these symptoms can sometimes have unwanted side effects.

However, recent studies have made some long-awaited discoveries that suggest a more dependable and secure method of treating inflammation and chronic pain. The groundbreaking idea of COX-2 enzyme inhibition has been the subject of scientific studies that have appeared in several medical journals.

At first, scientists thought that every COX enzyme in the body was the same. They recently learned that COX-1 and COX-2 are the actual COX enzymes. According to research, the COX-2 enzyme is largely to blame for inflammation and pain in the body. Prostaglandins are produced by COX-2 enzymes as a result of disease, trauma, and injury.

Pain and edema are the results of this. The body’s stomach lining and kidneys are protected by the COX-1 enzyme, as opposed to the COX-2 enzyme. The COX-1 enzymes continue to make anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. Aspirin and ibuprofen are examples of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which block the activity of the COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes and are commonly used to treat chronic pain and inflammation.

But over time, it inhibits the COX-1 enzyme from producing prostaglandins that protect the lining of the stomach. It can cause major problems in the body’s digestive system, like ulcers and colitis.

COX enzymes: Association of noni with selective COX-2 inhibition The discovery of COX-2 created a frenzy in the pharmaceutical world—everyone wanted to find a substance that would block COX-2 without harming the body’s production of COX-1. Amazing scientific findings from carefully conducted research in an independent laboratory show that noni juice selectively inhibits the COX-2 enzyme while allowing the COX-1 enzyme to continue to function.

The good news for chronic pain sufferers is that noni extract’s negligible side effects are thousands of times better than the leading drug for chronic pain, arthritis. Some of these prescription drugs have negative side effects such as rashes, facial swelling, abnormal bleeding, and abdominal pain.

In contrast, preliminary safety studies show that long-term use of noni extract is not a problem, unlike the complicated long-term use of aspirin and NSAIDs.

Endocrine disorders can sometimes result in a change in body odor, causing sweat to smell bad. Some specific conditions that can contribute to this include: Diabetes: People with diabetes may experience a fruity or sweet-smelling odor in their sweat due to high levels of glucose in their bloodstream. Hyperthyroidism: An overactive thyroid gland can cause excessive sweating, leading to a…
