diabetes mellitus is a disorder in which the pancreas fails to secrete sufficient insulin or the bodys decreased ability to use insulin. diabetes mellitus is Greek for a passing through of sweetness which refers to the passing of sugar rich urine, a characteristic of the disease. It is a very serious disorder, sometimes fatal and is the leading cause of death in Western society because of its damage to the cardiovascular system.

In a healthy body food is digested to release glucose into the blood. This causes beta cells in the pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream. insulin helps in the transportation of glucose from the blood to the liver and muscle cells. This can then be released later into the blood for metabolism. If the pancreas fails to produce sufficient amounts of insulin or if there is insulin resistance then diabetes will set in.

There are two types of diabetes, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) also known as juvenile-onset diabetes, type 1 diabetes and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) also known as maturity-onset diabetes, type 2 diabetes. Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to both forms of diabetes mellitus but the exact cause of diabetes mellitus is unknown. In both types, excess sugar in the blood known as hyperglycemia needs to be removed by the kidneys. Excessive thirst, frequent urination, weight loss and hunger are the symptoms.

In type 1 diabetes the bodys immune system destroys the pancreas beta cells resulting in low insulin levels. To prevent death insulin injections are needed this is why it is called insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). It is most common in people under 20 years old and then persists throughout life; this is why it is also know as juvenile-onset diabetes. IDDM is most common in Northern Europe especially in Finland where 1% of the population develops IDDM before the age of 15 years.

In untreated IDDM the cellular metabolism is similar to that of a starving person. This is because the insulin is not present to help the glucose into the body cells, to produce Adenosine triphosphate (energy currency) most cells use fatty acids. Triglycerides are stored in adipose tissues which are catabolized to yield fatty acids and glycerol. The breakdown of fatty acids cause a byproduct of organic fatty acids called ketones or ketone bodies. The buildup of ketones causes a fall in blood pH which is known as ketoacidosis, if this is left untreated it can cause diabetic coma and death.

Weight loss is also caused by the breakdown of stored triglycerides. Lipids are deposited on the walls of blood vessels as they are transported by the blood from cells storage depots. This leads to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular problems such as cerebrovascular insufficiency, ischemic heart disease, peripheral vascular disease and gangrene. Sever kidney problems may also arise from damage to renal blood vessels. Loss of vision due to cataracts (excess glucose attaches itself to lens proteins) and damage to the retinas blood vessels.

To treat type 1 diabetes a regime of self-monitoring the blood glucose level (up to seven times a day), insulin injection (up to 3 times a day), exercise and regular meals containing 45-50% carbohydrates and less than 30% fats. This regime will keep the levels of insulin and sugar in the blood normal. It is also possible to have a pancreas transplant but immunosuppressive drugs must be taken for life. Eating foods containing carbohydrates such as rice, potatoes, bread and cereals will raise blood sugar and insulin levels. This sugar raising effect of a food is called the glycaemic index and it measure how quickly the carbohydrate is absorbed by the body. Studies have found that people with type 1 diabetes have better control over their blood sugar levels by following a low-glycaemic-index diet.

Diabetics with neuropathy (diabetic nerve damage) have found their condition improved by following a vegan type diet (avoiding all meat, eggs and dairy products). By avoiding meat and dairy products, the chances of developing heart disease and kidney problems which diabetics are susceptible to, are reduced. Diabetics who smoke are at higher risk of developing heart disease and kidney problems. Diabetics who consume above the daily recommended amounts of alcohol are more at risk of developing problems with their eyes.

The following supplements may help if you are suffering from Type 1 diabetes.

Acetyl-L-carnitine (for diabetic neuropathy)

Alpha lipoic acid

Antioxidant complex

Biotin

Chromium

Coenzyme Q10

Evening primrose oil

Fish oil (EPA/DHA)

L-carnitine

Magnesium

Selenium

Vitamin A

Vitamin B1 (thiamine)

Vitamin B3 (niacinamide only, for prevention of type 1 diabetes)

Vitamin B6

Vitamin C

Vitamin D

Vitamin E (for prevention of diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy)

Zinc

To become an advanced player the control of the trajectory of the ball must be learned. If you are using the commonly taught roll over forearm actions it will require much trial and error and also much practice.

There is another way to swing the club that due to the way the wrists and fore arms work the ball position can be adjusted to any where from opposite the left heel for high shots to 6 or more inches to the RIGHT of the right foot for extremely low shots. This can be done without changing the way that the hands are placed on the club or without any different release motions. Naturally when the ball is played that far back in the stance the swing is abruptly stopped just after impact by the collision with the earth. Since the shaft is leaning so far forward at impact the complete release would dig a deep trench.

This releasing action is only possible with a swing that does not roll the forearms through the hitting area. Rolling the fore arms does not advance the club head past the left arm, it simply rotates the club face open and closed.

As the loft of the club reduces (the longer irons) the amount that you can move the ball back also reduces, this is to say that you cannot move a 1 iron back very far since it already does not have much loft and reducing it much further is rarely if ever needed. However it is possible with this swing to turn a lob wedge into a 1 iron by placing the ball way back to the right of the right foot.

one of the tricks to doing this is to keep the club pointing at the left hip no matter where in the stance you place the ball, and naturally using the non rolling fore arm release.

Dan Shauger is the Master instructor of the aperfectswing golf method. He is assisted up by many accredited instructors both here in the USA and in many countries around the world. He has written 2 books, How to Kill the Ball, and The 21st. Century golf swing as well as 6 DVDs on the golf swing with another DVD soon to be released. He also does seminars and clinics.

Dan has trained several champion long drivers and countless golfers who simply wanted to learn an easier on the body yet extremely powerful golf swing. Many of Dan's students are senior players who need increased distance to be competitive or players who simply want more power and accuracy to play an attacking game rather than a defensive one.

His book How to Kill the Ball is soon to be released in a Japanese language version in Japan, this book and his other works will also be translated to many languages to allow everyone the opportunity to learn this method.

Dan is currently accrediting golf instructors all over the world to assist him in teaching this revolutionary method.

A Chinese analyst has stated that the xbox 360 will not be popular in China for two major reasons.

Firstly, there is not enough diversity of game types. This was originally one of the problems with the first xbox although more recently this problem has been addressed. Also, many games are going to be cross platform, with many expected to be released on the ps3 and the Xbox 360 if not the nintendo Revolution as well (presuming the games can cope with the new controller).

Secondly, the Chinese market can not cope with the high prices that the xbox 360 demands. The ps3 is set to be released with higher prices than those of the xbox 360 so perhaps the nintendo Revolution will be left to sweep up the market in China.

For whatever reason, microsoft is unable to successfully release a video game console in the japanese market. Gamers in Japan seem more apt to buy a console which comes with a bit of history, and a proven track record.

Of course, the playstation dynasty already has a huge following in China and has had ever since the launch of the PS1 but if price is going to be an issue that could all be set to dramatically change.
