Diabetes Symptoms - How Alkaline Water Can Help Relieve Them!

Diabetes symptoms can range through fatigue, thirst, infections, blurry vision and a lot more.

It's important for you to know the symptoms as a first line indication as to whether you or your children have contracted it? If you find you have these symptoms then you need to take action quickly. Diabetes is a highly debilitating illness which often ends in death and it needs to be taken seriously.

Alkaline water has been found to be highly effective in relieving the symptoms of diabetes and helping sufferers get off their medication… but before taking any steps on your own it's important to seek a diagnosis from a qualified physician.

In Type 1 diabetes, the symptoms can often come on suddenly and dramatically. It mostly shows up in childhood or early teens often after an illness, virus or injury. The extra stress can cause diabetic ketoacidosis. Without treatment, ketoacidosis can lead to coma and death.

Symptoms of Type 2 diabetes are often not obvious and you may think they are due to aging or obesity. It's possible to have Diabetes 2 for many years without being aware that you have it. Steroids and stress can be big factors in the onset of Diabetes 2. It's important to take this illness seriously; it can lead to unpleasant outcomes like blindness, kidney failure, heart disease, and nerve damage.

Here are some of the Common symptoms of Diabetes 1 and Diabetes 2

Excessive and Unusual Tiredness:

When you contract diabetes the body is mostly unable to use glucose for fuel. It begins instead to metabolize fat to get the extra fuel it needs. This process is not very efficient. You have less energy than before and you feel tired.

Weight Loss You Just Can't Explain:

Because you can't metabolize sugar, much of the fuel in your food is excreted in your urine via the kidneys. You may find yourself eating way more food than normal and still losing weight. You become dehydrated and lose even more weight.

Excessive thirst:

The high concentration of sugar in your bloodstream overcomes your normal kidney function. Instead of being re-absorbed for future use the sugar is passed out in your urine. The brain senses a need to dilute the blood and you experience this as thirst. As a result you find yourself drinking more water as the body tries to correct this sugar imbalance.

Increased Urination:

The body tries to excrete the excess sugar via the kidneys. As a result you pass more water and feel thirsty.

Overeating:

The body will try to increase its levels of insulin production to reduce the excess blood sugar. Insulin is the key that opens the muscles and lean tissue to receive the sugar. But in Type 2 Diabetes you become insulin resistant. Your muscles refuse to take up the sugar.

Another job of insulin is to make you hungry… you can't absorb this extra insulin so you are driven to eat more.

Wounds Refuse to Heal:

When you have high blood sugar levels your white blood cells can't do their job properly. As a result your wounds heal slowly and often get infected.

Thickening of the Arteries

Long term diabetes can cause your arteries to thicken, reducing blood flow.

You catch more Infections:

Because your immune system is no longer functioning as well as it should you'll often find you are contracting skin and yeast infections as well as urinary tract infections.

Mood Swings:

You may find yourself agitated, irritable or unable to concentrate - all are symptoms of very high blood sugar levels

Impaired Vision:

You may find you have difficulty focusing and things appear blurry.

Don't despair! There are natural solutions available. Alkaline water has been found to be highly effective in relieving the symptoms of diabetes and helping sufferers get off their medication.

Ordinary tap water can be run through an alkaline water ionizer and produce both short term and long term relief for diabetes sufferers. And this ionized water is rich in negative ions which act as a powerful anti-oxidant to neutralize the hordes of free radicals in our bodies.
