What are the dangers of high blood sugar?

1. When blood sugar is high, the body's protein and fat metabolism will be disrupted, which can cause various complications. Acute complications include ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar coma. Hyperosmolar coma is mainly caused by high blood sugar, which can sometimes reach 500-600 mg/d1. It can cause dehydration of brain cells and other tissue cells, leading to coma.

2. Fatigue and weakness: Due to the lack of insulin, the glucose in the blood cannot enter the cells normally to burn and generate energy, and the cells cannot obtain enough energy. Moreover, the cells cannot convert glucose into other substances for storage. When blood sugar exceeds the renal retention value, the sugar is excreted in the urine, causing a waste of energy in the body, so the whole body feels tired and weak.

3. Because pure glucose is a solid substance, it must be dissolved in water to be excreted from the body through the kidneys in the urine. Therefore, when glucose is excreted through the kidneys of patients with hyperglycemia, a certain amount of water will be taken away. The more sugar there is in the urine, the more water is taken away from the body. Polyuria can take away electrolytes from the body, leading to water and electrolyte metabolism disorders.

After the above introduction to the dangers of high blood sugar, patients with high blood sugar should not delay treatment. Mild cases can be improved with dietary supplements. If the condition is serious, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for a detailed examination and treat your high blood sugar problem reasonably based on your physical condition and the doctor's advice.
