Your Blood Sugar Is Very High When You Notice 9 Signs According To Health Experts

The pancreas normally produces insulin, a hormone necessary for the body to absorb glucose, after eating anything sweet or high in carbohydrates.

Your liver stores any excess glucose to keep it out of your bloodstream.

Health professionals agree that this method has a strong track record of success in treating persons who are not diabetic.

The condition of substantial hyperglycemia "should never occur in a normal person who has no difficulty with their ability to maintain blood glucose range," she says.

However, if you have insulin resistance or diabetes, your body isn't as good at creating the insulin you need to metabolise glucose, and you're more likely to have dangerously high blood glucose levels as a result.

Consequences and warning signals of high blood sugar include:

Fatigue. Overwhelming lethargy, weakness, and weariness are non-specific symptoms that may indicate low blood sugar, according to the expert.

However, persistent weariness should be evaluated by a medical professional.

Headaches.

Due to their prevalence, it is useful to be able to identify the specific type of headache one is experiencing (migraines, for instance). However, you should talk to your doctor about any new persistent headaches. Vision impairment. Diabetic retinopathy is a disorder that can harm your eyesight if your blood sugar levels are consistently high.

This may cause your vision to get hazy and you may start to see more floaters.

Urinating often. The kidneys, which filter the blood of any excess water, can be negatively affected by the presence of excessive glucose.

Excess hyperglycemia in the blood can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, reducing the efficiency of this filtering mechanism and leading to increased urination.

Dry mouth. Intense thirst is a common reaction to increased urination, as confirmed by medical professionals.

Over the course of a few days or weeks, your high blood sugar symptoms may become more noticeable and severe if you don't get treatment.

This is what may occur if your blood sugar is too high, as described by our specialists at the Mayo Clinic. Abdominal Ache. Indigestion is a common symptom of high blood sugar.

In the absence of diabetes, this may be the result of your body's efforts to break down a large meal, or it may indicate the mild inflammation of the organs that typically follows ingestion of large quantities of refined carbs and processed sugars.

Putting on the pounds. It's another telltale indicator of consuming too much sugar.

It's a well-known fact that the fat in sugar leads to weight growth.

If you're putting on weight steadily week after week, it's evident that your sugar intake is excessive.

Cut back on sugary drinks like soda, juice, and tea and stick to water instead.

It can help you lose weight and lower your blood sugar levels.

Wanting something sugary. The very taste of sugar makes you want to eat more of it.

Because of its addictive properties, sugar consumption is likely to increase rather than decrease.

It's normal to have some, but too much of it is a telltale indicator of eating too much sugar.

Therefore, if you're feeling the want to consume more and more sugar, you should resist the urge because doing so can have very negative consequences.

Poor Quality of Sleep. High blood sugar levels might also cause sleep problems.

It's connected to the other side effects of eating too much sugar, such lethargy, irritability, and headache.

You will not be able to get good rest if any of these things are happening to you.

Well, we've covered some of the symptoms of consuming too much sugar up above.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it is imperative that you take quick action to manage your blood sugar.
