The pancreas produces the hormone known as insulin. This hormone helps in glucose transportation and cell absorption. The amount of glucose present in blood is the blood sugar concentration. The glucose level can be higher or lower depending on the individual. Hyperglycemia is a condition with high blood sugar level. Hypoglycemia occurs when there is low blood sugar level. Diabetes mellitus occurs when a person experiences consistent hyperglycemia. The unit used for measuring the blood sugar level in the USA is millimolar (mmoI/L). Normal blood sugar range The blood sugar level is the lowest in the morning. This is the Fasting Level. The normal blood sugar range for a non diabetic person in FL is 3.9-5.5 mmoI/L. The blood sugar range for a diabetic person is 4.4-7.2 mmoI/L during fasting. The blood sugar range rises after a meal. So the test is after 2 hours of consuming food. The blood sugar range will change in this case. The normal blood sugar range for a non diabetic person is 7.8 mmoI/L. The blood sugar range for a diabetic person is 10.0 mmoI/L after fasting. There is a long-term glucose test called hemoglobin A1c (HA1c). This test gives a reading of the blood sugar level for 2-3 months in a percentage. The normal blood sugar range is 5.7% for a non diabetic person. The blood sugar range is 7.0% for a diabetic person.

For those wanting to invest in collectible gold coins, there is just one word to live by and that is research. There are graders who assess the coins and dealers who sell them. The coins have an aesthetic value to the collectors. This value exceeds their melt value because the metal content is little and gold content is high. The collectible value of the coin is determined by the type of coin it is, the year it was minted in, and the “grade” of the coin. One of the most important questions to ask is the melt value of the coin, which is the value you will receive if the coin is melted and sold. A lot of relevant information may be found in trade magazines, but you need to keep in mind that collectible gold coins sell for a premium so that the dealer may make a profit. There are dealers who sell these coins after grading them using professional services. The professional services are offered by graders who examine the condition of the coin based on a specific criterion. A numerical grade ranging from 1 to 70 is assigned to each coin and they are kept in plastic covers for optimum protection. Even a minor difference in the grade could mean a gain or loss of thousands of dollars with regard to its value. It is advisable to hold the collectible gold coins for at least a decade if you wish to make a profit on their sale. The dealers sell the coins at a markup price and this is how they make money on it. It is also possible that the price of gold increases and the value of a coin declines. In other words, the market for coins may not be the same as the market for gold. Before taking an investment decision, be very clear about the commission or the fees the broker will be charging. Also, it is important to examine the coin before making a purchase decision. Learn about the grade and the dealer so that you do not regret your decision later on. Getting a second opinion will help you make a better choice with regard to the grade of the coin. Also, get to know the tax impact on the resale of collectible gold coins. In a nutshell, it is indeed an investment which needs an in-depth research and understanding of the coins and their dealers.

For a person looking for a job, the Internet is a resource that seems to be full of good opportunities. However, it is necessary to be wary about job advertisements that appear too good to be true. The demand for physicians of every specialization will always be on the rise. Openings for physician jobs can be found everywhere; recruitment portals, classifieds of networking sites, social media, and so on. While looking for physician jobs online, there a few criteria that are important to separate the wheat from the chaff: The quality of the job: It is necessary to check whether the responsibilities and description of the job match the qualification mentioned. It happens quite often that recruiters post a very appealing job profile, only to say later that the particular job has been taken and if the prospective candidate would like to apply for another job. This other job might not match the qualifications of the candidate. Detailed information about the prospective employer: The job posting must contain a complete description of the employer. It should include the history of the employer and all the details of the business including services offered, the total number of employees, office address, and contact information that includes phone numbers, emails, as well as website. Information about salary and compensation: Many recruiters post jobs with the following line: “Salary will be on par with industry standards.” This leaves a lot of room for vagueness. The candidate might apply for the job with a certain expectation of the salary, only to be informed later in the interview process that the employer is unable to offer that kind of compensation. Job postings should clearly state compensation figures. If not the exact number, at least a range of the salary offered should be included. Recommendation from peers: If more people are successful in finding jobs through one online resource, it means the website is trustworthy and has legitimate job openings. If fellow physicians are recommending a job portal site, it would save a lot of time to upload resumes on this particular site and to search for physicians jobs.

While it would always be the ideal situation to be able to buy oneself a newly minted car, the reality often is that second-hand cars are pre-owned are more pocket-friendly and also help us to save on taxes. While many dealers are scrupulous about quality and reliability of the used car that they are selling, there are equally as many who may cheat you. Take a look at the checklist that can be useful when you choose to buy your next affordable used car. The quality of the engine – it would hardly be superfluous to say that the engine is the heart of the car. Maintenance of the engine is paramount to durability and reliability of the car. You can ensure that there is no leak of any kind in the engine. Oil check – ensure that you or a mechanic does a thorough oil check paying attention to the color consistency and level of oil in the engine. Ensure that the head gasket on the engine is in good working condition. A blown gasket may cause a whitish or brownish sludge to form which is in itself a good enough reason to reject the car. Watch the color of the exhaust smoke after turning on the car’s engine for a few minutes. Do a thorough check of the used car’s exterior body work. Examine for scratches and dents and always verify why any damage has happened. Keep your eyes open for evidence of crash damage. Wheel check – carefully examine all the four wheels of the used car and also the spare tire. Check the treads thoroughly on all the tires. It is also important to check the interior upholstery for tears or stains. Remember to test the flooring carpet if any and also the carpet used in the cargo space. Do a careful check to see if the mileage shown on the car’s meter is in line with mileage advertised by the used car dealership. Be wary of clocked motors that might cause ‘fixed’ odometer readings. Typically, if the odometer shows a sudden decrease in mileage, which regularly should increase year on year, it might be indicative of a clocked meter. Do take a test drive and ask for the dealer to provide you with a detailed vehicle history summary to ensure that the car has not been mortgaged or recorded as stolen. So, when you are searching for affordable used cars keep these tips handy.
