Many people with diabetes suffer from unexpected weight loss, which can cause them anxiety and affect their overall health, according to internal medicine consultant Saeed Shalabi.
Shalabi told “Masrawy” that there are 3 main reasons for weight loss in diabetics
High blood sugar levels
When the body cannot use insulin effectively, glucose (sugar) builds up in the blood.
This causes the body to send messages to the brain indicating fullness, which reduces appetite and leads to weight loss.
High blood sugar levels can also cause fluid loss through urine, contributing to weight loss.
Diabetic complications
Complications of diabetes, such as nerve damage or retinopathy, can lead to loss of appetite and difficulty eating.
Some diabetes medications can also cause weight loss as a side effect.
Depression and anxiety
People with diabetes suffer from depression and anxiety at higher rates than the general population.
These psychological conditions can lead to loss of appetite and weight loss.
Weight loss in people with diabetes can be a sign of another medical condition
In this case, you should visit a specialist doctor if the patient suffers from unexplained weight loss.
Important medical advice
Follow a healthy diet
Exercise regularly
Eat small, frequent meals
Drink plenty of fluids
Monitor weight regularly
