1. Signs, Causes, And Early Symptoms of Diabetes
Simply defined, diabetes is a health condition where the blood sugar is higher than normal. The cause may be that the body doesn’t produce enough insulin or the cells are not able to use the insulin that is produced. Some symptoms include frequent urination, thirst and increased hunger.
2. Are You Really Diabetic?
Diabetes can be a silent killer. It’s not uncommon for a diabetes diagnosis to come after the patient has been ill with the disease for years. By then, these patients already have nerve loss in the form of loss of eyesight, gum and kidney damage, etc.

So what happens if the diabetic doesn’t do anything to control blood sugar levels? Blindness and kidney failure usually occur as well as nerve damage. It also accelerates the hardening and narrowing of the arteries, called atherosclerosis, which will lead to strokes and coronary heart disease.
4. Is Diabetes Lurking In Your Body Without You Even Knowing It?
Believe it or not, it’s entirely possible to be diabetic and miss the signs.
