Scientists have come up with a methodology that allows you to determine the propensity for diabetes by shaking hands.
For 10 years, an international team of scientists monitored 800 men and women with significant obese.
Periodically, they were asked to undergo a study to measure the strength of the hand, in simple words, how hard a person can squeeze a certain object with his palm. Measurements like this are done using an instrument called a dynamometer.
Normally, a woman's hand strength indicator, if divided by weight, should be equal to 0.49 kg.
If it is less than one tenth, then the propensity for diabetes increases by 50%.
For men, the optimal strength indicator is 0.68 kg.
It is possible to conduct research even at home with the device. In any case, doctors advise to monitor the strength in the hands and take a blood sugar test if you are obese and your hands become noticeably weaker.Recall
