Expert warning for diabetics regarding 'kidney failure'!

With the sudden rise in temperatures, Internal Medicine Specialist Dr. Emre Aydın has issued warnings.

Stating that diabetes is a disease characterized by a simple rise in blood sugar due to insulin deficiency or resistance in the body, Dr. Aydın explained that what is known as 'prediabetes' is not something hidden, but rather a term used in the medical literature to describe the stage before diabetes, where the patient has not yet developed the disease but is beginning to show symptoms and is progressing toward it.

"THEY CAN COMPLETELY ELIMINATE THE DISEASE"

Noting that this can be prevented or that the progression of prediabetes can be halted, Dr. Aydın said, "We can even eliminate it entirely. Patients at the onset of diabetes can prevent, stop, or even completely eliminate this disease if they pay attention to their diet and exercise. If they use olive oil at home instead of margarine, animal fat, or tail fat, or walk for at least half an hour daily, if patients prone to obesity diet and lose weight, and if they increase their intake of Mediterranean-style meals and salads, they can stop and prevent this, and even completely eliminate the disease."

"FOR PEOPLE OVER 50..."

"In the summer months, as temperatures are currently rising, we lose much more fluid than we normally do," said Dr. Aydın, adding, "Both diabetic and prediabetic patients may lose more water than normal patients, and since their kidneys are more sensitive than those of healthy individuals, they need to replace this fluid. They must increase the amount of water they drink. We also recommend a diet low in protein and fat, and rich in salads, vegetables, and fruits. Because the weather is hot, we advise people over 50 in particular not to be outside too much during the peak hours of the sun, between 12:00 and 16:00. Because the fluid they lose will directly affect their kidneys, and they will progress to kidney failure much faster."
