The dangers of high blood sugar are all around us

Nowadays, many people's blood sugar is generally high. High blood sugar should be taken seriously. It is very harmful to the body, especially it can easily cause diabetes. If your blood sugar exceeds the normal range, you should pay attention to the occurrence of dangers at any time and control your diet.

1. The harm of high blood sugar

1. Causes dehydration and hypertonic state of the body

High blood sugar causes a large amount of glucose to be excreted in the urine, causing osmotic diuresis and leading to dehydration of the body. Dehydration increases the osmotic pressure of the extracellular fluid, and water shifts from inside the cells to outside the cells, causing intracellular water loss. Water loss in brain cells can cause brain dysfunction and even coma, which is clinically called "hyperosmotic coma."

2. Leading to electrolyte imbalance and acidosis

When blood sugar is high, the patient's urine volume increases significantly, and a large amount of electrolytes are taken away from the urine, leading to electrolyte imbalance. Since patients with hyperglycemia have difficulty in utilizing sugar, they turn to breaking down fat to produce energy. Along with fat decomposition, ketone body production increases, leading to diabetic ketoacidosis. Pang Ming, Department of Cardiology, Guangxi Jiangbin Hospital

3. Leading to pancreatic islet failure

Long-term high blood sugar has a "toxic effect" on pancreatic islet cells, leading to pancreatic islet failure, less insulin secretion, and progressive deterioration of the disease.

2. High blood sugar diet

1. Kiwi

Kiwi is cold in nature. It is rich in a lot of natural sugar alcohols, which are nutrients that can effectively regulate the patient's sugar metabolism, regulate the hormones in our cells, and enhance the conduction effect of nerves. It has a unique and significant effect on preventing diabetes and depression. It is the most promising fruit for lowering blood sugar.

2. Pear

We know that pears can help us relieve coughs, but pears also have another function, which is to help lower blood sugar.

3. Cauliflower

Cauliflower is actually a common vegetable in our lives. There are generally two types of cauliflower, one is white and the other is green. The nutritional value of these two types is the same, and they contain a lot of vitamins and minerals.
