Experts noted that blood sugar levels affect the health of the entire body, so regular monitoring (at least twice a year) is extremely important.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to Cursorinfo.
In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to hidden symptoms that may indicate an increase in glucose levels and the risk of developing diseases.
1. Constant thirst
When blood sugar levels rise, the kidneys work to the limit to remove excess glucose, which leads to dehydration. The body begins to experience constant thirst, and this is a serious signal that requires checking sugar levels.
2. Frequent urge to urinate
Excess glucose causes the kidneys to excrete fluid intensively, which increases the frequency of urination. If thirst is combined with these symptoms, it may be a sign of hyperglycemia.
3. Impaired concentration
Due to insufficient energy supply, the brain begins to work less efficiently. Memory problems and absent-mindedness may indicate problems with sugar levels.
4. Decreased vision
High blood sugar causes the lens of the eye to swell, resulting in blurred vision. Regular visits to the ophthalmologist will help identify possible abnormalities at an early stage.
5. Slow wound healing
Hyperglycemia disrupts normal blood circulation, slowing the delivery of nutrients to tissues. This makes wounds difficult to heal and increases the risk of infections.
6. Sudden weight loss
If you are losing weight for no apparent reason, this may be due to a metabolic disorder due to insulin deficiency.
7. Constant feeling of fatigue
High sugar levels can disrupt sleep and deprive the brain of the necessary energy, increasing fatigue and lethargy.
