Relative (mature - onset) diabetes
Due to malfunction or imbalance in the nervous,
hormonal and digestive systems, there is thought to be an inappropriate secretion of
insulin at the wrong time, and / or the body tissues have become less responsive to the
insulin. In this form of diabetes, insulin release appears to occur too late in the cycle,
so the blood sugar level rises to a high level before insulin is secreted. When insulin is
finally liberated, there is not enough to cope with the high blood sugar level. The
pancreas tries to secrete more insulin, but it is too late, for by then the liver has
started to release glucose in response to the call from the starving body cells. Thus the
level of sugar in the blood rises even higher. In addition to this, the insulin that is
released may be ineffective in letting the glucose into the cells because that the cells
themselves can't take it in or because insulin is poorly manufactured. There are varying
degrees of this type of diabetes, from mild to severe. Some cases are even unnoticeable
(latent). Factors involved in mature-onset diabetes seem to be heredity, increasing age,
obesity, infections and stress.
