It’s very important to be able to spot diabetes signs at a very early stage in the disease . Here are the top 11 most common and easiest to spot signs:

Have You Suddenly Started To Lose Weight? A persons weight is a very important determining factor in early onset diabetes . Most diabetics are actually overweight . It’s when the diabetes actually begins when the sudden weight loss occurs . This is due to the fact that the body suddenly begins to use body fat stores for nutrition and energy .

Often and frequent Urination   Frequent urination is the most classic symptom of diabetes . The symptoms occur because the body of the person is unable to reabsorb the water back into the body. The kidneys of the diabetic person becomes busy in extracting and flushing away more water because of the osmotic activity that is linked to increased level of glucose.

Are You Suffering From Unquenchable Thirst?  Dehydration stems from frequent urination. To restock the supply of water the body gives signal that it is extremely thirsty.

Are You Feeling Extreme Hunger Specially Soon After Eating?  Because the body is continually breaking down tissue, it feels as though it must feed constantly . The cells of the diabetic person are in the state of starvation specifically if left untreated at the mercy of diabetes.

Those are considered to be the trademark signs of diabetes . In almost every diabetic the above symptoms can be found . These are the classic warning signs and should not be ignored . If you are experiencing these signs of diabetes then it is better to get tested.

 We mentioned 11 signs, here are 7 more not so common signs you should look out for .

Blurriness in Vision: This is caused by an increase in blood flow to the retina of the eye.

Dryness of Skin:  Diabetics are known to have itchy and dry skin .

Numbness or Tingling In Extremities:  This symptom can better be explained by a heart beat in hand or feet. Though sounds ridiculous but it is the best explanation of numbness feeling.

Slow Healing Cuts and Wounds:  Poor healing of even minor cuts and bruises is another sign of diabetes.

Recurrent Vaginal Infection in Women:  Yeast and Vaginal infections are very common in diabetic women.

Tiredness or Fatigue:  If you feel tired and fatigued even after just the smallest of tasks it’s possibly an early sign of diabetes .

Irritability:  All of the above signs of diabetes can manifest themselves in a person and understandably cause irritability .
