Diabetes is a very common disease, but many people do not realize they have it until they are tested. In this article we will mention the symptoms that can indicate diabetes.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 422 million people worldwide are suffering from diabetes and their number is increasing rapidly. Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Most of these deaths have been recorded in low- and middle-income countries.
However, keep in mind that prevention of diabetes can be done mainly in two ways. Number one: 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and number two: a healthy diet that can lower your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Symptoms:
The term ‘diabetes’ was coined by the Greek physician Aretaeus (81-133 AD) which literally means ‘to flow’. In ancient times, doctors used to test for diabetes by tasting urine. If sweetness is present, it means the patient has diabetes. However, thanks to the development of studies and information, we can now observe some symptoms that can quickly detect the disease.

3) Nausea
4) Increased appetite
5) Dry skin
6) Confusion or irritability and later drowsiness and gradual loss of consciousness.
7) Fatigue
8) Weight loss
