7 Early Signs of Diabetes Type 2

Here are 7 early signs of type 2 diabetes that allow you to recognize the condition at an early stage and get the right treatment. An early diagnosis is very important in order to be able to slow down the development of diabetes and get the most out of treatment and dietary changes. None of these signs on their own means that you have type 2 diabetes, but if you experience more of the symptoms, we recommend that you contact your GP for a consultation.

Frequent urination

When the body notices that there is excess glucose in the blood, which occurs in type 2 diabetes, it causes the kidneys to move this glucose over to the urine - which leads to more urine production. This means that you have to go to the bathroom more often and maybe even several times during the night. If you have noticed that you have more frequent visits to the toilet and that you urinate more when you first go to the toilet, then we recommend that you discuss this with your GP.

Feeling thirsty

High glucose levels lead to a cascade of effects in the body. As mentioned, a high blood sugar content causes you to leave the water more often and thus you lose more fluid - which in turn leads to a feeling of dryness in the mouth and that you experience that you are more often thirsty than you were before.

Unexpected weight loss

When you are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, your cells do not get enough glucose (due to poor insulin function) - which can lead to weight loss. This in combination with frequent urination, which is a sign of uncontrolled diabetes, can lead to the loss of both calories and fluid, which in turn leads to weight loss.

4. Hungry! Hungry! Hungry!

Those with type 2 diabetes have what is known as insulin resistance. This means that the body cannot use insulin to get glucose into the cells. Due to this resistance, muscle cells, fat cells or other tissues cannot absorb glucose in a good way. The body thus tries to solve this by the pancreas (Pancreas) starting to produce significantly larger amounts of insulin to compensate for the poor absorption of glucose - which consistently means that people with type 2 diabetes have higher insulin levels in the body than others . It is this high insulin level that then sends signals to the brain that you are hungry.

5. Foot pain and foot ailments (diabetic neuropathy)

Over time, an elevated level of blood sugar can lead to damage to the nerves around the body - this is called diabetic neuropathy. Some may be asymptomatic, while others may experience numbness, tingling, tingling and pain in the feet, legs and arms. Normally, diabetic neuropathy starts in the feet and works its way up from there, symptomatically speaking. The condition usually occurs in those who have had type 2 diabetes for over 25 years, but can also occur in those who have had the disease for a shorter time than this.

Frequent infections

The reason why those with type 2 diabetes are more plagued by bacteria and yeast infections is that high blood sugar provides these very good conditions. Thus, people with type 2 diabetes have a higher incidence of foot fungus, for example.

7. Gritty, unfocused vision

This is one of the earliest signs that you may be affected by type 2 diabetes. A high blood sugar level changes the lens' ability to change shape - something it does, for example, with light changes. So even if the lens is not damaged, the muscles around the lens must work harder to focus. This symptom can occur when there are rapid changes in blood sugar levels.

What can you do if you have type 2 diabetes?

- Collaborate with your GP and study a plan for how you can stay as healthy as possible, this may involve:

Neurological referral for examination of nerve function with regard to possible investigation of neuropathy

Treatment by a nutritionist

Lifestyle Changes

Training programs

Otherwise, remember that prevention is the best treatment.
