You might also feel hungry as a result of your diabetes. This is caused by the lack of energy as your body looks for other sources of fuel. The lack of useable energy will cause the body to produce a hormone called ghrelin which is associated with hunger and this can cause you to eat more.
This is potentially very dangerous, as you might find yourself seeking out more sweet foods and carbs in a bid to try and get the energy you require – not realizing that you are elevating your blood sugar to dangerous degrees. This is one more reason that you need to be vigilant when looking out for those early signs of diabetes.
