Signs and Symptoms of Prediabetes

Prediabetes can take a long time to transform finally as diabetes. It has been generally observed that prediabetes will eventually convert to diabetes but, at the same time, there are greater possibilities to revert back to normal if, taken care seriously. People suffering from prediabetes may show same symptoms as in diabetes but, they will be erupting occasionally like:

Excessive thirst
Tingling sensations in feet and fingers
Excess Hunger
Frequent Urination
Irritability
Frequent infections
Blurred vision
Skin itching
People - In Risk Zone : Some individuals are at more risk of prediabetes than others due to presence of these factors -

Being overweight
Family history of prediabetes
Waist hip ratio - The person with 'fat tire'
Depression and stress
Causes: Prediabetic is a person suffering from little high sugar than normal patients. The reason behind high sugar is entry of glucose into the blood cells due to disturbance in the mechanism of insulin. Thus, sugar is circulating in the blood stream but unable to penetrate into cells and tissue, to produce energy. The exact reason for this is uncertain but it is considered that overweight and fatty tissues along with sedentary lifestyle are the correlating factors.
