Two Setups...
The two main conditions that preclude the slip to Pre-Diabetic condition are; Hypoglycemia and Insulin Resistance. The main indicator that you are in one of these states is:
Insatiable Appetite
You are either not full after a meal or you are craving sweets as the fuel absorption is being blocked. This set up a starvation mode inside the cell. Now this gets to be a viscous cycle as the starving cells call on the pancreas to develop even more insulin.
Now it can take many years in this pre-diabetic condition before the slip into diabetes. So this in turn will not show on blood tests readily. Not only that but it has to be advanced to be able to detect. Also as many people are in this condition and we are used to seeing people gain a lot of weight we sort place it out of mind.
Other signs
- Increased Thirst
- Constant Fatigue
- Shakey and Hungry
- Moody and Grumpy
- Wound heal slowly
- Increased Urinary and Yeast infection
As it escalates even more to type 2 diabetes:
- Blurred Vision
- Tingling in hands and feet
- Blood Pressure Issues
- Poor Heart Health
So it definitely seems like something to work against earlyon when you first see the issue possibly developing.
Just a heads up... If this is allowed to continue the individual can slip into type 2 diabetes.
One Idea is Change Your Diet
As example if you consume more fat (as it does not increase insulin), but satisfies you at the same time. Over time the body will normalize. Get more active and get serious about your own health!
Not a quick Fix
This will not happen over night and patience will be needed. Now this is by no means advice, just research and experimentation in the process.
I know I am banging the sugar drum of late, but it is a stealth disease that left unchecked can develop into major health issues.
