Myoclonus dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by movement jerks and twitches some body parts unconsciously. 
 
Symptoms of this disorder usually appear in childhood or early adolescence. 
 
Movement disorder triggered by certain movements, stress, caffeine, alcohol, or sound. 
 
When jerks movement causes muscle relaxation, the condition is called 'negative myoclonus'. 
 
Instead, jerks movement resulting muscle contraction, a condition called 'positive myoclonus'. 
 
 
Cause 
 
This rare disorder caused by mutations in the epsilon-sarcoglycan gene (SGCE), who served encodes a protein ε-sarcoglycan. 
 
The function of this protein is unknown, but it is present in the cell membrane of neurons and muscle cells. This protein deficiency affects the control and coordination of movement. 
 
 
Symptom 
 
Myoclonus dystonia symptoms include the sudden movements and uncontrolled that generally affects the arms, neck, and limbs. 
 
There are very few cases in which the face and legs are also feeling the sudden movement. Symptoms tend to worsen as a result of alcohol consumption. 
 
Other symptoms that may be observed include <a href="http://purba-java-indo.blogspot.co.id/2015/09/definition-of-anxiety-according-to.html">anxiety</a>, depression, <a href="http://purba-java-indo.blogspot.co.id/2016/03/symptoms-and-causes-of-panic-attacks.html">panic attacks</a>, obsessive compulsive disorder, and other personality disorders.

For diabetics, diet is a good example; reproduce eggs, cheese, spiced tofu, spiced tempeh, soy milk, or other sources of protein for breakfast. Protein foods in the morning makes your blood sugar stable throughout the day. Reduce portion of rice, bread, cereals and other carbohydrate sources in the breakfast. 
 
After consuming a diet rich in carbohydrates, blood sugar levels will rise even in healthy people. For diabetics, the rise could reach an alarming level. Breakfast rich in protein to help prevent this. Moreover, the benefits of breakfast with protein-rich foods was also continued until after lunch. Whatever is eaten during the day, blood sugar levels will tend to be lower when breakfast with protein-rich foods. 
 
The body's response is not always the same 
 
"People often think that the body always responds to carbohydrates in the same way, but in fact not the case," said study leader Professor Jill Kanaley from the University of Missouri-Columbia. "For example, we have known for a long time that blood sugar levels after lunch very high in people who skip breakfast. They were having breakfast in the morning will have a blood glucose relatively lower after lunch. " 
 
Team nutritionists, led by him, have studied how the breakfast composition effect on blood glucose curve during the day. For this purpose they provide breakfast rich in protein (35 percent protein / 45 percent carbohydrate) or high in carbohydrates (15 percent protein / 65 percent carbohydrate) to 12 patients with type 2 diabetes for seven days. On the seventh day they measure blood sugar levels, insulin and other hormones that are relevant. Measurements were made twice a day, after breakfast and after lunch rich in carbohydrates. 
 
Sugar curve after lunch 
 
Breakfast rich in protein makes the blood sugar curve after lunch ride at a much slower pace. "It shows that the body better regulate blood sugar levels," explains the researcher. Morning meal triggers the cells to increase the concentration of insulin at lunchtime, which indicates that the body acted appropriately in regulating blood sugar levels. 
 
Previous studies have shown that a diet rich in protein is generally stabilize the metabolism of sugar. They show that the consumption of more protein lowers the risk of diabetes. However, you do not need to consume excessive amounts of protein. About 25 to 30 grams of protein is enough for your breakfast. 
 
<a href="http://purba-java-indo.blogspot.co.id/2014/11/diabetes-mellitus-raw-foods-that.html">Diabetics</a> also need to understand that different foods produce different impacts and to really know the impact of every food they need to be consistent in monitoring blood sugar. Blood sugar levels after a meal may also change depending on how much physical activity has been done that day or how long gap between meals.
