Carbohydrates defficiency ; MARASMUS Symptoms; Severe weight loss Wasting Fatigue weakness
Diabetes mellitus Symptoms; Excessive thirst ( POLYDIPSIA) Frequently feel to urinate (POLYURIA) Slow healing of wounds Frequently hunger and eating (POLYPHAGIA)
3 pathies of diabetes mellitus 1) Neuropathy – involvement of nerve function especially the sensory 2) Nephropathy – involvement of the kidneys 3) Retinopathy – involvement of the retina of the eye which might lead to blindness
2 common lab findings in diabetes mellitus Glycosuria – excessive glucose in urine can be tested by reducing agents such as Barfoed’s and Fehling test 2) Hyperglycemia – excessive in the bloodstream they burn with a sooty flame
How can we analyze the carbohydrate content of different foods in the lab? A.Qualitative Tests Bennedict's Test Iodine test B.Quantitative Analysis Phenol-Sulfuric Acid Anthrone Test
