Vous avez surement entendu parler de la campagne de publicité « un test…un bisou », mais ce test de la glycémie qu’est-ce exactement ?

Les personnes atteintes de diabète comme c’est mon cas doivent relever leur taux de sucre dans le sang au moins une fois par jour. Pour ce faire, leur médecin leur a prescrit un lecteur de glycémie.

 

Ce lecteur est accompagné d’un auto-piqueur et de bandelettes réactives.

L’auto-piqueur est un outil destiné à faire une petite piqure plus ou moins profonde afin de faire sortir une petite goutte de sang. Vous remarquerez que contrairement à ce que l’on pourrait penser, on ne se pique pas la pulpe des doigts car sinon, on perdrait la sensibilité des doigts au bout d’un certain temps. Il vaut mieux se piquer sur le côté des doigts, la peau y est un petit peu plus épaisse mais il y a plus de place. Avant de se piquer, il est conseillé de bien se laver les mains en évitant bien évidemment d’utiliser une solution hydro-alcoolique puisque je vous rappelle ces solutions contiennent du sucre.

 

Les bandelettes réactives sont de deux modèles. Il y a celles qui aspire la goutte de sang et la teste ou celles qui lisent la glycémie à partir de la couleur d’une zone réactive. Celles que j’utilise l’aspire. Il faut faire attention à ne pas abimer les bandelettes c’est la raison pour laquelle elles sont stockées dans une petite boite de plastique.

 

Il y a encore deux type de lecteurs, ceux qui enregistrent le résultat et en tirent des statistiques directement ou d’autre qui ne sont pas dotés de cette fonction.

 

Pourquoi lire quotidiennement sa glycémie ?

L’intérêt est simple, il s’agit d’aider à modifier ses propres comportements vis à vis d’une alimentation sucrée mais aussi dans sa façon de vivre la maladie.

 

Il faut savoir concernant le diabète qu’en principe si notre corps fonctionne normalement, le sucre est stocké dans un certain nombre de cellules, celles du foie et des muscles. Toutefois lorsque le pancréas ne fournit plus l’insuline qui favorise la pénétration du sucre dans les cellules, celui-ci se retrouve dans le sang…En principe pas de problème, il sera éliminé dans les urines mais lorsque c’est trop fréquent, il fini par se stoker dans des lieux irrigués par de fines capillaires. Là, les reins, les yeux et les pieds trinquent quand ce n’est pas l’artériosclérose.

 

Il faut donc lire sa glycémie pour pouvoir corriger le tir.

 

Il existe en effet toute une artillerie d’astuces alimentaires pour faire baisser ce taux de sucre dans le sang. En voici quelques une :

Aliments pauvres en glucides (5 %) pouvant être consommés librement : Toutes les viandes, poissons, mollusques, crustacés, œufs, fromages et matières grasses (librement mais avec modération). Certains légumes verts: aubergine, asperge, céleri en branche, choux blanc et rouge, chou-fleur, champignon, chicorée, concombre, cresson, courgette, endive, épinard, laitue, scarole frisée, poivron, tomate, mâche, côte de bette, radis, certains fruits comme le pamplemousse, orange, melon, pastèque, mandarine, fraise, framboise, mûre.

Consommer des champignons contenant peu de glucides

Consommer du riz basmati dont l’index glycémique est moins élevé que le riz blanc

Assaisonner les plats avec du jus de citron qui permet d’abaisser le taux de la glycémie (plats et crudités)

Penser également à préparer des jus de citron, sans ajouter de sucre avec de l’eau minérale.

Consommer des fibres : les fibres permettent de diminuer la vitesse du passage du sucre dans le sang

Légumes verts

Céréales complètes non raffinées : avoine ou blé complet

Légumineuses comme les lentilles mais pas de carottes ni de betteraves.

L’eau : en boire au minimum un litre par jour. Augmenter sa consommation en cas de forte chaleur ou lors d’activité sportive

Choisir les Soda « light » ou de préférence sans sucre.

Café, thé, infusions peuvent être consommés mais sans sucre ou avec un édulcorant

Penser au jus de citron, mais sans y ajouter de sucre

Ne pas oublier les jus de légumes, mais éviter ceux contenant des carottes et betteraves

Il est possible de consommer de l’alcool quand on est diabétique, mais en adoptant certaines règles et en en buvant en quantité limitée. Préférez le Whisky, la vodka et le gin enfin des alcools secs.

Mais attention, certains aliments sont strictement interdits : les bananes, le raisin, les figues fraîches, les marrons ou châtaignes, les dattes et tous les fruits secs et séchés, fruits confits ou en conserve. Presque tous les desserts: sucre et sucreries, bonbons, chocolat, nougat, pâte de fruit, confiture, miel, pâtisserie, pain d'épice, lait concentré sucré. Les liqueurs, le vin sucré, le cidre ou la bière, l’eaux-de-vie, la limonade, les sodas, sirops et jus de fruits du commerce sucrés.

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.

 

William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.

 

Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.

 

After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.

 

The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.

 

Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Ihagee Kamerawerk is well known due to the famous Exacta cameras.

Before WW2 Ihagee produced a vast range of folding cameras with the name Ultrix.

 

Principal Ultrix models:

*Ultrix (1923) standard first model

*Ultrix-Duplex Nr.1560 (1924)

*Ultrix-Simplex (1924)

*Ultrix-Automat Nr.1250 (1925)

*Auto-Ultrix-Junior (1935) Simple version of Zweiformat-Auto-Ultrix Nr.2860

 

Too many varieties of lenses and shutters were used on Ultrix series. The shutters usually from Gauthier, like the Ibsor, Vario, Pronto and Prontor. The lenses labelled Ihagee Anastigmat. But Ihagee never made any lenses of their own, they were all bought from several lens makers. It is possible that the glasses may have been mounted by Ihagee.

Ihagee folders seem to have died with the WW2 and have been forgotten, even among Exakta collectors. more info: Peter's Ihagee page , Sylvain Halgand Collection
