Warning Sign #5: Hunger
The food that we eat contains the nutrients we need to build our bodies, and also energy giving glucose. As mentioned, the glucose is then absorbed into our cells, but diabetics are not able to process glucose in this way. This means the body does not get sufficient energy from their food, and this means they feel hungry more often.
A diabetic will sometimes feel hungry even shortly after a large meal, although they might be too full to take on any more food. This can also impact their weight as the way the body turns energy into fat is affected.
