10 Symptoms of Diabetes Insipidus

Symptom #6: Diarrhea
Our digestive system extracts the nutrition we need from the food we eat. This means proteins, fats, minerals, and everything else we need to keep us healthy and well. It also takes fluids from our food and drinks, which are then distributed around the body.
In diabetes insipidus, though, the body perceives too much water being retained. This causes less water to be absorbed from our food and passing waste gets rid of excess water. This means that diarrhea is a common symptom of diabetes insipidus.
