What Causes Type 2 Diabetes?

Type 2 Diabetes, formerly called non-insulin-dependent or adult-onset, is caused by problems with a chemical in the body (hormone) called insulin. This hormone is made by the pancreas that acts like a key to let blood sugar into the cells in the body for use as energy. If someone has type 2 diabetes, cells don’t respond normally to insulin, which is called insulin resistance. So pancreas makes more insulin in order to get cells to respond. But finally it cannot keep up, and the person’s blood sugar rises, setting the stage for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.
More than 90 percent of people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes. This type of diabetes is largely the result of obesity and physical inactivity or linked to family history.

Why Is Type 2 Diabetes Serious?

In the worst cases, diabetes can increase the risk of getting serious problems with the eyes, heart and nerves.

Four Types of Diabetes Surgery Turkey
Şafak Hospital in Turkey provides the most advanced and approved surgical options for type 2 diabetes and weight loss.

• Sleeve Gastrectomy:

Sleeve gastrectomy is a type of diabetes surgery Turkey that removes approximately two thirds of the stomach without rerouting the intestine. The remaining stomach takes the shape of a tube or “sleeve” and provides a much smaller reservoir for food. The procedure changes the metabolism and hormones produced by the intestines too. More than 60% of patients suffering from type 2 diabetes will have remission after the Sleeve.

• Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass (RYGB):

During this procedure, the top of the stomach is divided, and a small pouch which functions as the new stomach is created. Then the surgeon makes a small opening (stoma) in the pouch and attaches it to the small intestine. Since the size of the new stomach pouch is limited, you feel less hunger and food intake decreases.
This type of diabetes surgery Turkey results in significant weight loss, remission of type 2 diabetes in nearly 80% of patients, and improvement of diabetes in almost all patients.
Improvement of diabetes occurs just within a few days to weeks following gastric bypass. Most importantly, the metabolism and hormones produced in the intestines are changed over time as a result of this surgery and affect the body’s ability to reach a healthy weight.

• Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD/DS):

Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, also known as the duodenal switch, is the other type of diabetes surgery Turkey. This surgery changes the size of the stomach and the length of the small intestine, where nutrients are absorbed. In this way, it limits how much food the patient can eat, digest, and absorb.
Due to the complexity of the procedure and the greater risk of complications, the duodenal switch is a malabsorptive procedure performed far less frequently than the gastric bypass, sleeve or the adjustable gastric band.

• Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S):

Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy is the latest procedure to be endorsed by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. This type of diabetic surgery Turkey involves making the stomach into a tube (just as with the sleeve gastrectomy) and cutting and reconnecting the small intestine to a loop of intestine further down-stream. In this way, the body absorbs fewer calories.
SADI-S has demonstrated excellent rates for weight loss and type 2 diabetes remission, and it has fewer negative side effects than its predecessor duodenal switch.
