2. Unexpected weight loss
Many people with Diabetes feel hungry all day long and never stop snacking. Because the blood sugar cannot reach the organs properly, you may feel tired and hungry all the time. Also, there is an imbalance of the hormones responsible for hunger and feeling full which can also result in intense feelings of hunger and cravings for sugary foods. However, patients with diabetes continue to steadily lose weight, even if they eat more. This happens because your body never gets the energy or sugar it needs. This is a major warning sign, especially if the person was overweight, to begin with, and has rapidly started to lose weight.
