Warm ups: 1. What is a normal body temperature? 2. What is diabetes? Identify normal or desirable ranges for common health indicators Temperature, blood pressure, weight, cholesterol and blood glucose levels Normal Body Temperature • Oral (mouth) – 97.6 to 99.6 Fahrenheit • Rectal (rectum) – 99.6 to 100.6 Fahrenheit • Axillary (armpit) – 96.6 to 98.6 Fahrenheit Blood Pressure • ages 20 – 40 years is 120mm Hg systolic pressure and 80mm Hg diastolic pressure.= 120/80mmHg • Systolic pressure - heart`s ventricles contract and push the blood through the veins. • Diastolic pressure - when the artery is resting • By using the term "normal", we really mean the ideal figure. Average blood pressure range for your age… Ideal Weight • Depends on height and how much muscle mass • Better to use body mass index to see if you are in the healthy range Body Mass Index (BMI) • Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. Body fat percentage • How much of your body is fat vs. muscle • Different for male and female Normal Cholesterol levels • Your total blood cholesterol is a measure of LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and other lipid components. Doctors recommend total cholesterol levels below 200 • cholesterol levels include the following parts: – LDL (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, also called "bad" cholesterol) – HDL (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, also called "good" cholesterol) – Triglycerides (fats carried in the blood from the food we eat. Excess calories, alcohol, or sugar in the body are converted into triglycerides and stored in fat cells throughout the body.) LDL cholesterol: • LDL cholesterol = “BAD” cholesterol because it LDL Cholesterol LDL-Cholesterol Categoryand can build up on the walls of your arteries Less than 100 Optimal increase your chances of getting heart 100 - 129 Near optimal/above optimal disease. 130 - 159 Borderline high The lower your LDL cholesterol number, the 160 •- 189 High 190 and above your risk. Very high lower HDL cholesterol • HDL cholesterol -- "good" cholesterol -- the higher the number, the lower your risk. HDL Cholesterol HDL-Cholesterol Category • This is because HDL cholesterol protects 60 and above High; Optimal; associated with lower risk heart disease taking the a"bad" Less against than 40 in men and less than 50 in by Low; considered risk factor for heart women disease and keeping it cholesterol out of your blood from building up in your arteries. The table below explains what the numbers mean. Triglycerides • Triglycerides - chemical form in which most fat exists in food and the body. • A high triglyceride level has been linked to higher risk of coronary artery disease. Here's the breakdown. Triglycerides Triglyceride Category Less than 150 Normal 150 - 199 Mildly High 200 - 499 High 500 or higher Very high Cholesterol Summary Total Cholesterol Category Less than 200 Desirable 200 - 239 Mildly High 240 and above High Blood Glucose Levels: • The blood glucose level is the amount of glucose (sugar) present in the blood of a human or animal. • Average blood sugar levels between – 3.6 and 5.8 mM (mmol/L, i.e., millimoles/liter), or – 64.8 and 104.4 mg/dL. • The human body naturally tightly regulates blood glucose levels as a part of metabolic homeostasis. Blood sugar levels can change throughout the day! Diabetes • If you have diabetes, no matter what type, it means you have too much glucose in your blood, although the reasons may differ. Too much glucose can lead to serious health problems. • Two types of Diabetes: – Type 1 diabetes and – Type 2 diabetes Signs and symptoms of type 1 and type 2 diabetes: • • • • • • • • • • Increased thirst Frequent urination Extreme hunger Unexplained weight loss Presence of ketones in the urine (ketones are a byproduct of the breakdown of muscle and fat that happens when there's not enough insulin) Fatigue Blurred vision Slow-healing sores Mild high blood pressure Frequent infections, such as gum or skin infections and vaginal or Causes of type 1 diabetes • In type 1 diabetes, your immune system — which normally fights harmful bacteria or viruses — attacks and destroys your insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. This leaves you with little or no insulin. Instead of being transported into your cells, sugar builds up in your bloodstream. Type 1 is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors, though exactly what those factors are is still unclear. Causes of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes • In prediabetes — which can lead to type 2 diabetes — and in type 2 diabetes, your cells become resistant to the action of insulin, and your pancreas is unable to make enough insulin to overcome this resistance. Instead of moving into your cells, sugar builds up in your bloodstream. Exactly why this happens is uncertain, although as in type 1 diabetes, it's believed that genetic and environmental factors play a role in the development of type 2. Being overweight is strongly linked to the development of type 2 diabetes, but not everyone with type 2 is overweight. Exit slip Questions: 1. What is a normal body temperature for humans? 2. What is BMI? 3. What is a healthy BMI ? 4. What is diabetes?
