The early symptoms of adult onset diabetes must be recognized by everyone. Recognizing these signs of diabetes is crucial because diabetes is a life threatening disease. It is a disease in which the sugar level becomes high in bloodstream. These high levels of blood sugar create different diabetic symptoms.

Causes

Diabetes is caused by

• Deficiency of insulin
• Inefficiency of cells to use the provided insulin

Either any one or both of the above may cause diabetes.

Symptoms

Here are the very early symptoms of adult onset diabetes

• Blurriness in vision
• Fatigue or tiredness
• Increased thirst
• Increased hunger
• Excessive urination
• Slow healing wounds
• Recurrent infections

No doubt it is not easy to determine that symptoms being experienced are indicating diabetes. However the best way is to go for fasting blood glucose test. If results are above 126 mg/dl it indicates that person is suffering from diabetes. If the fasting blood glucose level is between 100 mg/dl and 126 mg/dl then it indicates that person is suffering from pre-diabetes. Such person is considered to be at increased risk of diabetes.

What a person should do if he is experiencing early symptoms of adult onset diabetes or is diagnosed with diabetes? The immediate objective must be to stabilize the level of blood sugar and eliminate the warning signs of diabetes. Long term goal should be to stabilize blood sugar level and prevent diabetic complications.
