When I started my research, I found many sources on diabetes. However, many were irrelevant. Although I was able to find information about diabetes in general, information specifically about type II diabetes was often lacking. For example, the source would group Type II and Type I diabetes together when explaining the effects of exercise and diet. The source has become a problem because type II diabetes is not insulin dependent while type I diabetes is. Although the problem may not seem significant, it is because exercise and diet for type II diabetes focus on reducing insulin, which is already naturally produced by the type II diabetic, while that type I diabetics don't even produce insulin and have difficulty storing it. their body. Additionally, although I found many sources on clinical studies of type II diabetes, these studies often lacked sufficient explanation of their results. For example, many of these studies I researched talked about the process in which they were done and then vaguely drew a conclusion about the experiment. They left the reader with no definitive conclusion and many unanswered questions, which brought him little benefit. Many publications also lacked details on the link between physiology and type II diabetes. The posts would go through the process between the exercise and diet routine and the results. For example, many publications provide information about a certain exercise and state the results it produces on a person's glucose levels, but leave the questions of how and why unanswered. The first source I found, which is extremely relevant to my topic, is the article “Type II Diabetes” from The MayoClinic Health Letter. This s...... middle of paper ......s that helps reduce fat. More useful information I learned is that while bread, vegetables, and nuts are starchy foods that constitute complex carbohydrates, sugars such as glucose and lactose constitute simple carbohydrates. This information is beneficial because it taught me the difference between simple and complex carbohydrates.Works CitedUnknown. “Do your best: start controlling your blood sugar today.” Do your best: start controlling your blood sugar today.
