Why are men prone to diabetes? What are the symptoms of diabetes?

In recent years, the trend of men suffering from diabetes has intensified. Sitting in the office during the day and watching TV and playing on mobile phones at home at night is a portrayal of the lives of many people today.

These have also become one of the causes of diabetes. Let's talk about the symptoms and prevention of diabetes.

What are the symptoms of diabetes?


What are the symptoms of diabetes?

1. Appetite increases, but the weight does not increase but decreases

This is the most common symptom of diabetic patients, so when these symptoms appear, you must go to the hospital to check blood sugar in time.


2. Unexplained numbness of the extremities

The most frightening thing about diabetes is its complications. There are many diabetic patients who may not have the typical symptoms of three more and one less. However, only the complications are the first manifestation. Diabetes can cause peripheral neuropathy and cause numbness.


3. There is a persistent non-healing foot ulcer

There is a small blister on the foot, but it is getting bigger and bigger, and the foot ulcer is gradually formed, and there is no way to heal it. At this time, be wary of diabetic foot. Diabetes leads to a decline in immunity, and the wound is more prone to repeated infections and healing will be more difficult.


4. Puffiness and oliguria appear

Diabetes can cause diabetic nephropathy. At this time, the patient will have swelling and oliguria. As the kidney function continues to deteriorate and develop into uremia, the patient will also develop renal anemia and anuria.


5. Reduced vision

If your vision suddenly appears blurred, you should also check your blood sugar. Diabetes can cause diabetic retinopathy.


 To prevent diabetes, keep your mouth shut and open your legs

Keep your mouth shut: control the total energy of your diet to maintain a normal weight;

Use coarse grains with a low glycemic index as part of the daily staple food;

Eat plenty of vegetables, 500 grams or more per day, and eat appropriate fruits according to your blood sugar;

Eat moderate amounts of fish, poultry, and lean meat, avoid or eat less processed and cured meat; and avoid sugary drinks.

Stretching legs: It is recommended to do moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (aerobics, Tai Chi, square dance, etc.) 5 days a week, and exercise at least 30 minutes a day.

If this is not possible, exercise can be done one or two days apart, but do not exceed 3 days, otherwise, the exercise effects and benefits already obtained will be discounted.
