Diabetes is not only associated with food containing sugar, but also the psychological condition. A study claims that depression or stress can also trigger diabetes. Even like a vicious circle, diabetes can also trigger depression.
"Although it has been hypothesized that diabetes-depression relationship is bidirectional," the researchers said as quoted by the Times of India.
Together with his team, An Pan, from the Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, assess the relationship between diabetes and depression among 65 381 women aged 50 to 75 years in 1996.
All respondents classified as people with depression, had symptoms of depression, using antidepressant medication, or have been diagnosed with depression by a doctor. During 10 years of study, 2844 women were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and depression 7415 having problems.
Results showed that depressed women 17 percent more likely to develop diabetes, after controlling for other risk factors, such as physical activity and body mass index (BMI). And those who use antidepressants had a 25 percent higher risk of developing diabetes than those who were not depressed.
Women with diabetes were 29 percent more likely to develop depression. Women who take insulin for diabetes have increased risk of further 53 percent higher than women without diabetes.
The results showed that depression may have an effect on the risk for diabetes is weight and not physically active. In addition, the study reinforces the findings that diabetes-related stress.
"Future studies are needed to confirm our findings in different populations and to investigate potential mechanisms underlying this relationship," said study researcher in the 'Archives of Internal Medicine' issue of November 22.
Symptoms of diabetes are shown with high blood sugar levels and the inability to produce insulin. Generally characterized by frequent urination, easy thirst, blurred vision, and numbness in hands or feet. While the symptoms of depression include anxiety, hopelessness or guilt, lack of sleep, loss of appetite or excessive, to the loss of life interests.
High levels of depression will affect blood sugar levels and insulin metabolism, through the release of stress hormones or cortisol. While diabetes can lead to chronic stress. So the relationship of diabetes and depression not just a question of an unhealthy lifestyle, but also has a biological connection.
