How to test your blood glucose (sugar) levels

Health No Comments »

Watch a step by step guide on how to test your blood glucose levels. In order to perform a blood glucose test you will require your blood glucose meter, a test strip to hand, a lancing device and a monitoring diary to record the results of your blood glucose test.

Diabetes.co.uk’s Benedict Jephcote runs through how to test your blood sugar. In this video, Benedict is using a OneTouch meter and test strips.

Ben’s blood glucose was 3.6 mmol/L (or 65 mg/dL) in this video. Learn about hypos (low blood glucose) at http://www.diabetes.co.uk/Diabetes-and-Hypoglycaemia.html

For those not in the UK, mmol/L is the UK standard unit. mg/dL is the American unit. You can convert between the two here: http://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html

In this video, Dr. Berg talks about the dangers of glucose in your urine. It means that your blood sugars or the glucose in your blood is minimally at 225 or more – this is one of the ways that the body is trying to get rid of the toxic glucose by peeing it out and it is called Osmotic Diuresis. The complication of having this is it pulls out minerals specifically potassium, sodium, chloride and more that causes dehydration.
Low Minerals Symptoms:
• Headache
• Fatigue
• Confusion
• Purple nails
• Heart problems

What Is Hereditary Cancer? What Is A Hereditary Cancer Mutation | Genetics 101 | Ambry Genetics

Health No Comments »

For more information about genetic testing, visit https://www.ambrygen.com/

Approximately 14.51 million Americans are currently diagnosed with cancer; and about 10% of the time, the disease is caused by a hereditary cancer mutation.

What is a hereditary cancer mutation? To answer this common question, Ambry Genetics has created a short video which outlines the vital basics of hereditary cancer by explaining the causes, risks and family implications associated with the diseases.

Inherited Genetic Disorders | Genetics | Biology | FuseSchool

This girl has six fingers on her left hand. She has a condition called polydactyly, which causes extra fingers or toes. Her father and grandmother as well as some of her cousins also have the condition. This should give you a clue about how she came to have it… any ideas? Well, polydactyly is an example of a genetic disorder – it is inherited. You inherit genes from your parents, and you have two copies of each gene – one from your mother and one from your father. Genes come in different forms, called alleles. Alleles may be recessive or dominant.

So going back to Polydactyly… Polydactyly is caused by a dominant allele, shown as a capital P. You only have to have one copy of this allele to have the condition. So in an example the father has a copy of this allele, but the mother does not… Offspring with one dominant allele big P, and one recessive allele little p will also have the condition. Whereas these offspring won’t have the condition. Can you see what their genotype must be…? Little p, little p – so two copies of the recessive allele.

Another example of an inherited disorder is cystic fibrosis. If you want to discover more about cystic fibrosis, and how it affects the body then watch this video [insert link to ‘cystic fibrosis’ video].

Cystic fibrosis is inherited in a different way to polydactyly. Take a look at this genetic diagram and see if you can figure out how it is different.

To have cystic fibrosis, you have to inherit two recessive alleles. The parents in the diagram are both carriers of the recessive allele, little f. They do not have the disorder themselves but they could both pass the recessive allele to their children.

Quite often, people do not know they are carriers of cystic fibrosis until they have a child with the disorder. This can be very upsetting, as it is a serious condition.

Parents are able to make sure they do not have another child with the disorder using embryo screening.

Let’s finish off with a little discussion about what embryo screening is.

Embryo screening can be used to ensure embryo’s do not suffer from inherited genetic disorders.

To do this, the parents would use in-vitro fertilisation, which is also known as IVF.

IVF is where eggs and sperm are mixed in a dish in a lab outside of the body. Each fertilised egg would be left to grow until it reached a few cells big, and then one cell from each embryo is removed and its genes tested to see if it has the genetic disorder. Only unaffected embryos – a maximum of two – would be placed back into the mother’s uterus to grow and hopefully develop into a healthy baby.

There are many issues surrounding embryo screening. One ethical issue is that the unused embryos, potential lives, are destroyed. Also, there are social concerns – IVF is not always successful and this can be upsetting for the parents and their family. Finally there are also economic issues because IVF is an expensive process.

So there we have a few examples of inherited genetic disorders. These are inherited from your parents, resulting from certain alleles your parents have been carriers of.

Sometimes genetic disorders are caused by dominant alleles – like polydactyly so it can be inherited from one parent – and others are caused by recessive alleles – like cystic fibrosis – so both parents need to carry the allele.

What is Hepatitis C and Why Should You Care?

Health No Comments »

Hepatitis C is a viral infection causing liver disease. Over 3 million people in the US are infected with hepatitis C and over half remain undiagnosed. The vast majority of individuals living with hepatitis C do not have symptoms. Hepatitis C is transmitted through contact with infected blood and many are unaware of their infection. If left untreated, hepatitis C can damage the liver to the point of cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver failure. The good news is that there are short-duration treatments that can lead to cure. The Johns Hopkins Viral Hepatitis Center is here to help more people get tested, treated and cured of this life-threatening disease.
