In today's time, staying healthy has become a challenge in itself, due to a stressful lifestyle and irregular daily routine. Changing lifestyles are making people victims of premature old age and diseases. For example, nowadays the problem of uncontrolled sugar is being seen a lot among youth and teenagers.

Uncontrolled sugar is a kind of 'silent killer', which gradually makes the person its victim. In such a situation, it is important to understand its initial symptoms, so that it can be identified on time and appropriate treatment can be done. In this article, we are telling you about the initial symptoms of sugar by which it can be identified.

Sugar problem in youth and teenagers

We can understand from the WHO report how rapidly the problem of sugar is increasing among the youth. According to this report of the World Health Organization, in the year 2014, about 8.5 percent of youth aged 18 years were suffering from the problem of uncontrolled sugar. While in the year 2019, 15 lakh people died due to high blood sugar, 48 percent of these deaths were of young people.

This report of the World Health Organization states that due to high blood sugar the risk of fatal diseases like heart stroke, kidney disease and cancer increases. According to the report, sugar problem has been responsible for 4.6 lakh deaths due to kidney diseases in the past years. At the same time, 20 percent of deaths due to heart-related problems were due to high blood sugar.

According to this report, people who were diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 30 died 14 years earlier than other healthy people. At the same time, the average age of people who were diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 40 was reduced by 10. Apart from this, this study also shows that diabetes is more fatal for women than men. In fact, according to this study, the average age of women suffering from diabetes at the age of 30 was reduced by 16 years.

Early signs of diabetes

In such a situation, it is clear from this report that in the past years, youth and teenagers have become increasingly affected by sugar and how the problem of sugar is gradually taking them closer to death. Therefore, identifying the problem of sugar at the right time is very important. So let us now know about those initial signs which start appearing as soon as one becomes affected by sugar.

Frequent urination

A diabetic patient faces the problem of frequent urination. The excess sugar present in the body comes out only through urine and for this the kidneys have to work harder. The kidneys remove the sugar accumulated in the blood through urine, which is why a person suffering from diabetes has the problem of urinating more often than normal.

Excessive thirst

Due to the problem of frequent urination, a diabetes patient faces the problem of dehydration and due to dehydration, he feels more thirsty than necessary.

Feeling more hungry

A person suffering from sugar feels more hungry than required. Actually, in the state of hyperglycemia, the body is not able to absorb glucose properly and due to this, the body is not able to get the necessary energy from food. In such a situation the person feels more hungry than necessary.

Wound not healing

In a person suffering from diabetes, the ability to fight infection becomes weak. In such a situation, your body is unable to fight even a mild infection and you become its victim. Not only this, the wounds on the body of a person suffering from diabetes also heal quickly and even small wounds turn into big wounds.

Rapid weight loss

Diabetes patients also face the problem of rapid weight loss. When the body does not get enough energy from food, the body starts burning fat. In such a situation, weight loss occurs rapidly. Therefore, if your weight is losing rapidly without changing your workout or diet plan, then try to find out the reason for it. If you notice any of the symptoms mentioned above, get your sugar checked and also contact a doctor for its treatment.
