Blood sugar, also known as blood glucose, is crucial for your body\u2019s functioning. It is the main fuel for your cells, providing the energy you need to perform daily activities. Your body regulates blood glucose levels through insulin, a hormone which is produced by the pancreas. Simply put, your pancreas releases insulin and ensures there is enough insulin to transport glucose into your cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Constant Thirst<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When your blood sugar levels are high, your kidneys work overtime in order to filter and absorb the excess sugar. This can cause dehydration, making you feel constantly thirsty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Frequent Urination<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is another indication of high blood sugar. This might not seem like a big deal at first, but it could be one of the more dangerous signs that your blood glucose level is too high. When glucose remains in the system for a longer time, it can draw water from just about every organ within your body, causing it to shrink slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Extreme Hunger<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you might think that increased hunger is a sign of low blood sugar, it can also indicate high levels and complications with moving that glucose into your cells to be used. When your body can\u2019t effectively use the glucose in your blood, it signals your brain that you need more food, causing you to feel hungrier than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Fatigue and Weakness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your kidneys work harder when there is excess glucose present in your body which lead to fatigue and exhaustion. It can also lead to drowsiness and sleepiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, you might feel tired due to the changes in hormone levels that come with high blood sugar levels. The adrenaline your body produces when it needs energy is often absent because of the excess glucose levels, which will contribute to feelings of lethargy or exhaustion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Blurred Vision<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High blood sugar can lead to the lenses in your eyes to swell, leading to blurred vision. If you notice changes in your eyesight, it might be time to check your blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
