10 Signs Of Diabetes That People Usually Ignore
High blood sugar affects the human nervous system, disrupts blood circulation and causes tingling in legs.
#5. Wounds or cuts that take more than usual to heal.
When a person experience diabetes, his immune system weakens, making it difficult for his wounds and cuts to heal. In order to strengthen your immune system, you need to use some natural remedies and fill your body with vitamins.
#6. You have blurry vision.
Don’t worry, it doesn’t necessary mean you have a diabetic eye disease. Blurred vision is just a temporary problem that develops intensively and is caused by high blood sugar levels. In order to fix this kind of blurred vision, you need to balance your blood sugar levels.
#7. Irritation and mood swings.
Diabetes may affect person’s mood. Blood sugar swings may lead to rapid changes in a person’s mood, and make them sad and grumpy. This is especially true during hypoglycemic episodes, where blood sugar levels falls lower than seventy milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). High blood sugar may also lead to depression and anxiety.
When a person’s blood sugar becomes normal, these symptoms usually disappear. Remember that mood swings can be one of the first signs of diabetes.
#8. You feel tired all the time.
It’s okay when a person feels tired from time to time. However, constant fatigue is an important sign to pay attention to. Maybe your body cannot break down the food you consume and it doesn’t give you energy — you just don’t have enough fuel for your body.
#9. Your hands shake when you are hungry.
High blood sugar makes it difficult for your body to regulate glucose levels. When you eat a lot of simple carbs, your body produces more insulin and your glucose levels drop. That is the reason why your hands shake when you feel hungry. You have a need to eat more simple carbs and this leads to a vicious cycle.
#10. You lose weight rapidly.
We all know that having excess weight is a risk factor for diabetes. However, rapid weight loss is also a sign of diabetes. In patients with diabetes, low insulin levels prevent the body from getting glucose from the blood into the body’s cells to use as energy. When this occurs, the body starts using fat and muscle as a fuel causing rapid weight loss.
