hyperglycemia

People with diabetes know that is harmful to a lot of sugar in the blood. But not all know that a real overdose of the sweet substance, hyperglycaemia, they can slip into a coma. This is life-threatening diabetic coma.

Your body can sweeten if you eat too many sweets or cram too many foods in themselves, which contain much starch. They then inject too little insulin or take a little of your tablets, you get one big problem: Your body can not cope with this high level of sugar in the blood.

If you add sugar, you feel tired and weak, are shaky. Sometimes you are also sick. At the same time you must be pretty thirsty, and constantly on the toilet. Because the kidneys try to flush the sugar with water to back out of the body. Your bladder fills up so quickly, while the body literally dries up. Therefore, your body sends the signal thirst.
On sugars, bad, your breath smells like nail varnish

Meanwhile, starving the cells of your body. To survive, the organism reaches back on fats, which lay in his bacon-saving. These fats converts it into sugar molecules. This produces ketones. These molecules acidify the blood. Eliminated they are via the lungs, so the air you exhale. Then your breath smells of rotten fruit or nail polish remover. For type 1 diabetics, this means: Red Alert!
When excess sugar is only one thing: Insulin

Dizziness is the precursor of unconsciousness! Do you notice this symptom, you should immediately inject insulin. Otherwise you might slip into diabetic coma. Without insulin, the sugar does not get into the cells but remains in the blood.

Is your blood sugar level is too high in the long run, will threaten not only severe damage to nerves and kidneys. Your body literally sugared. Everywhere in the tissue is deposited from the sweet substance, and then ruined eyes and veins.
