Viagra May Prevent Diabetes
Dr. John Mangwiro, president of the Zimbabwe Diabetic Association and specialist in the disease, said latest statistics from the Zimbabwe Diabetic Association estimate that 1.5 million Zimbabweans have diabetes, which is characterized by a dry mouth and extreme thirst, a constant need to urinate especially at night, and unexplained and unintentional weight loss.
The National Pregnancy in Diabetes (NPID) audit, which is which is managed by the Health and Social Care Information Centre in partnership with Diabetes United Kingdom and supported by Public Health England, looked at 2,537 women with diabetes who were pregnant in England and Wales in 2014.
While further studies are needed to determine whether long-term treatment can prevent the onset of diabetes in high-risk patients, “sildenafil and related drugs could offer a potential avenue for addressing the rising number of diabetes diagnoses”, said Nancy J. Brown, M.D., chair of the Department of Medicine at Vanderbilt.
Only 44.9% of women with type 1 diabetes and 23.7% of women with type 2 were taking folic acid at this level.

Pregnant women are highly advised by doctors to regularly take folic acid in order to ensure that the fetus develops normally. In addition to this, one in 10 women with type 2 are taking medication when they become pregnant that is potentially harmful to the baby.
This is crucial because high blood sugar levels increase the risk of pregnant women to experience stillbirth or neonatal death.
“Women with a history of [gestational diabetes] who follow a low-carbohydrate dietary pattern may consider consuming plant sources rather than animal sources of protein and fat to minimize their future risk for [type 2 diabetes]”, the researchers wrote. It’s clear from the audit that many women need more information and more support in all of these areas. “Blood_sugar_levels__too_high_among_pregnant_women_with_diabetes_/” target=”_blank”>discovered that a majority of the women have high levels of blood sugar during the early stage of their pregnancy.
In work supported by the National Institute for Health Research and the Wellcome Trust, the Exeter researchers devised a test which measures 30 genetic variants in DNA and combines all the risks associated with them in a single score, which can then act as a summary of genetic risk for type 1 diabetes.
All of the patients were randomly assigned to take Viagra (25 milligrams, three times per day) or an inactive placebo for three months.
