Answer 1

What are the main Symptoms of Diabetes?
The most consistent symptom of diabetes mellitus (Type I and II) is elevated blood sugar levels. In Type I (insulin dependent / early onset) diabetes, this is caused by the body not producing enough insulin to properly regulate blood sugar. In Type II (non insulin dependent/adult onset) diabetes, it is caused by the body developing resistance to insulin, so it cannot properly use what it produces.

However, high blood sugar is not something you can see in the mirror at home, so it is useful to know the side-effects of high blood sugar, which are commonly recognized as the noticeable symptoms of diabetes.

If you find yourself experiencing many of these diabetes symptoms on a consistent, long term basis, you should visit a doctor to be tested for diabetes. Ignoring (or not recognizing) the symptoms of diabetes can lead to long-term serious health risks and complications from untreated diabetes. Some of the common 'early warning' signs of diabetes are:

The first symptom of diabetes is often excessive thirst (unrelated to exercise, hot weather, or short-term illness)
Excessive hunger (you know you've eaten "enough" but are still hungry all the time)
Frequent urination (often noticed because you must wake up repeatedly during the night)
Tiredness and fatigue (possibly severe enough to make you fall asleep unexpectedly after meals), one of the most common symptoms of diabetes.
Rapid and/or sudden weight loss (any dramatic change in weight is a sign to visit a doctor)
While many of the signs and symptoms of diabetes can also be related to other causes, testing for diabetes is very easy, and the constant/regular presence of one or more of these symptoms over an extended period of time should be cause for a visit to the doctor.

If diabetes is suspected, tested for, and diagnosed when those symptoms first start appearing, other more serious symptoms of advanced diabetes can often be prevented or have their onset significantly delayed through diet, exercise and proper blood sugar management.

However, often the 'minor' symptoms of diabetes go unrecognized, and physical and neurological problems may arise, resulting in some
of the following symptoms:

Blurred vision (diabetes can lead to macular degeneration and eventual blindness)
Numbness and/or tingling in the hands and feet (peripheral neuropathy, a symptom of diabetes, causes nerve damage in the extremities)
Slow healing of minor scratches and wounds (diabetes often leads to impaired immune system function)
Recurrent or hard-to-treat yeast infections in women (another sign of impaired immune function)
Dry or itchy skin (peripheral neuropathy also affects circulation and proper sweat gland function)
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms on a regular basis, or you recognize these symptoms in a child or relative, they may be signs of untreated diabetes. A doctor's appointment should be made as soon as possible, so the individual experiencing the symptoms can -- if diabetes is diagnosed -- take the steps needed to prevent more serious health problems

Answer 5

Extreme Fatigue And Headaches

Answer 6

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

What you are dscribing is depression and secondary from it could be diabetes. Tired all of the time, because your body is processing stress or sugar. Sugar is the source of fuel and it is everything you eat. You don't have to have something sweet. Just white. Sorry, but white yeast is probably the unhealthiest for your body. It turns to unhealthy sugar, which is also known as fat. It makes you groggy. Also, if you over sleep it causes you to feel lethargic. Get up, take a walk. It could be for two minutes or five minutes. While you walk think of what you want to do. Make a list and get started where you are. If you are on the computer, there is something you can do. Get a paper get a part time job and feel valued. Then go to the local health department and get a check up. They are free. Drink lots of water. I know it's blahhhhh but it's the healthiest for you. No fancy wand here. It doesn't take money to walk or drink water or get a check up. You can do it, hope that helps.

Frequent Urination And Fatigue

Answer 10

With the newer types of insulin these days, diabetic diets aren't necessarily as restrictive as they used to be. Read here https://tr.im/diabetestreatment
As with any medicine or diet change, you should discuss it with your doctor. Fruits, both fresh and dried, have a natural sugar in them that will raise blood sugar levels, so be careful about eating too much. Not sure about the nuts. Moderation is always the key. I've been diabetic for 18 years and just recently changed insulin types. I love it because it gives me more freedom in when and what I eat.
