What damage can obesity cause?

Even without a diagnosis of diabetes, if you are obese your blood sugar levels will likely be high. Which over a prolonged period of time can have devastating effects on health. You may not be showing symptoms but after a routine blood test your doctor will be able to check if you have prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. However, years and even decades can go by without receiving such a diagnosis. And above-average blood glucose, known as hyperglycemia, will be causing damage to your organs. Once you find out that you are prediabetic, it is advisable to change your lifestyle. And improve eating habits to avoid the onset of diabetes at all costs. And even people already diagnosed with this disease can experience damage from hyperglycemia. This is if they do not keep control of it. Such as kidney damage to the point of requiring dialysis or transplant. It also causes nerve damage, particularly in the feet and lower legs. People who suffer from hyperglycemia heal slowly and will suffer from intestinal problems such as diarrhea and may also have eye difficulties leading to vision problems. Therefore, as soon as you find out you are diabetic, monitor your blood glucose regularly to maintain your quality of life for as long as possible. Whether or not you are diabetic, if you are diagnosed with prediabetes or suffer from obesity, it is necessary to follow a healthy eating plan. In addition to increasing physical activity to be healthier and keep your blood glucose levels under control.
