В последнее время катание на тюбинге стало одним из популярнейших видов активного зимнего отдыха у взрослых и детей.

For reference:
Тюбинг – надувная круглая камера в чехле с усиленным дном и ручками. Чехол для камеры сделан из прочного материала (полиэстера, нейлона или прочной тентовой ПВХ-ткани с ударостойким и морозоустойчивым покрытием), а участки, испытывающие максимальные нагрузки, дополнительно усиливаются капроновой лентой. Специальное покрытие низа чехла позволяет развивать большую скорость даже на склонах с маленьким уклоном (to 60-90 км/час.) Верхняя часть чехла имеет шероховатости для лучшего сцепления с седоком. По бокам тюбинга есть ручки, за которые можно держаться, а в передней части – кольцо для крепления буксировочного ремня.
У тюбинга нет ни руля, ни тормозов, он управляется исключительно наклоном тела. На горке тюбинг является практически неуправляемым, вращается при движении и развивает очень высокую скорость.

Однако это весьма травмоопасный вид зимнего отдыха. Read completely »

Diabetes (SD) as defined by the World Health Organization (TRAIN) – is a state of prolonged high blood sugar, which can be caused by a number of external and internal factors. The disease itself is due to absolute (complete) and relative (relative) insulin deficiency, which leads to carbohydrate (sugar), fat and protein metabolism. In simple terms, it means, that diabetes is not just one disease, a whole group of diseases, which arise for various reasons., but they look the same.

WHAT IS TYPE I AND II DIABETES?

Type 1 diabetes used to be considered juvenile diabetes (juvenile type diabetes with a tendency to ketoacidosis). It appears most often before 30 years (more often at age 12-14 years) suddenly, with severe symptoms: thirst, large amount of urine (polyuria), hunger, weight loss, can be manifested by loss of consciousness with complete exhaustion and dehydration of the body, coma, when treatment is needed in the clinic, in the intensive care unit. Type I diabetes is the result of complete (absolute) insulin deficiency, caused by the death of beta cells in the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas, that produce insulin.

Type II diabetes, previously considered as, adult diabetes, is a disease, due to insensitivity of body tissues to insulin. The amount of insulin produced may be normal or less, than healthy, but very often the level of insulin in the blood in this type of diabetes is even higher, than healthy people. It usually develops after 40 years, sometimes after 60 years, slowly, imperceptibly, often diagnosed only during preventive examinations by blood and urine tests or already at the stage of complications. Four out of five patients are overweight. However, this is all relative.. And in practice there are cases, when this type of diabetes occurs at a young age and without obesity. Read completely »
