11 Early Signs Of High Blood Sugar To Prevent Diabetes

High blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, is a condition in which the level of glucose (sugar) in your blood is higher than normal. If left untreated, high blood sugar can lead to type 2 diabetes, a chronic condition that affects the way your body processes glucose. However, the good news is that there are early signs of high blood sugar that you can watch out for. Here are 11 early signs of high blood sugar to help prevent diabetes:

1. Frequent urination: When your blood sugar is high, your kidneys have to work harder to filter and absorb the excess sugar. This can lead to more frequent urination, which is a common sign of high blood sugar.
2. Increased thirst: As a result of the frequent urination, your body may become dehydrated, leading to an increased feeling of thirst.
3. Fatigue: High blood sugar can cause your body to become fatigued and sluggish, making it difficult to stay alert and focused.
4. Blurred vision: High blood sugar can cause the lenses in your eyes to swell, leading to blurred vision.
5. Dry mouth and skin: High blood sugar can cause your mouth and skin to become dry and itchy.
6. Headaches: High blood sugar can lead to headaches and difficulty concentrating.
7. Weight loss: If you are experiencing high blood sugar, your body may be burning fat and muscle for energy, leading to weight loss.
