New diabetes jab could help fight obesity
Scientists have developed a revolutionary once-a- day injection that can control the symptoms of both diabetes & helps fight obesity. Experts sad that the injection called Victoza could help to prevent thousands of people who are suffering from type 2 diabetes & they have to take insulin. The use of insulin can cause weigh gain. The jab can help people lose weight by intensifying the full feeling they have & by reducing the speed at which their stomach empties.
The jab has another benefit that it lowers blood pressure, which is a factor in heart disease. The jab needs to be used just once a day because it stimulates the release of insulin only when blood sugar levels become too high. This once-a-day injection not only reduces blood sugar levels, but it also reduces weight which is extraordinarily good news.
A new diabetes jab will help in the fight against diabetes & could also help sufferers to stay off insulin. It is an important new treatment & scientists are extremely optimistic about its role for type 2 diabetes. It could herald a new age in diabetes treatment. Type 2 diabetes is linked to poor exercise and diet. Many people with type 2 are overweight or obese. It is estimated that more than 500,000 people have the disease but they don’t know it.
It is also forecasted that rate of obesity will soar over the coming decades. People those affected are at higher risk of heart disease, stroke & certain types of cancers. Even without the threat of obesity, diabetes is dangerous because it can lead to long-term illnesses such as blindness & kidney failure. Scientists said that Victoza, also called liraglutide, can be taken any time of day.
Care advisor of diabetes Cathy Moulton said, “Liraglutide widens the choice of treatments for people with Type 2 diabetes that not only offer improved blood glucose control but also aid weight loss. In addition, research has shown that this treatment has a positive effect on blood pressure levels.”
He further said that they welcome safe & effective treatments that give people with diabetes choice in how to best manage their condition. Good diabetes management reduces the risk of developing serious complications including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, blindness & amputation. With Victoza, patients with Type 2 diabetes can confidently control their blood sugar & may benefit from weight loss.
