Diabetes is characterized by complaints which have emerged gradually:
They constitute classical thirst, frequent urination and much, itching and fatigue.
It is not always as traditional as described here, is much more especially on older age fatigue standing in the foreground.
Identifying the disease is often random, especially when there are not too many complaints.
Our thoughts focused on what tests or when there is recurrent urinary tract infections and is found in the urine sugar.
From Dutch and international research, we know that prior to the diagnosis have been at least seven years to establish a deviation from the sugar metabolism exists: in this phase is the development of late complications already underway, including around 30% of the people at the time of diagnosis of diabetes complications has been!
This is called a precursor of diabetes, we call this pre diabetes or impaired sugar metabolism, which almost always turns into diabetes.
This exemption is designed research quickly fixed.
Through intervention, the lifestyle adjustments and sometimes administering medication, the development of diabetes and will therefore postpone the development of later complications may be avoided.
