Diabetes. > How "Hunger" is not a symptom of hyperglycemia but is of hypoglycemia? Hunger is required for the overeating that causes the reactive hypoglycemia that folks with metabolic syndrome (MetS) experience and returns as folks return to a fasting postprandial state. Hunger is absent during hyperglycemia when an person with MetS has just overeaten. > How increase thirst and increased urination are symptoms of > hyperglycemia whereas > Sweating(excessive cold sweat) is symptom of hypoglycemia? Folks with reactive hypoglycemia become hyperadrenergic in the body's attempt to restore euglycemia. Polyuria and polydipsia are related to each other and arises from glucosuria.

Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) triggers hunger because your body is wanting more glucose in its blood. Hence the hunger >How increase thirst and increased urination are symptoms of >hyperglycemia When your blood glucose is high (hyperglycemia) your body does its best to get rid of the excess glucose. Your kidneys process lots of liquid out of your system in an efforts to remove the glucose that is in the liquid. Hence urination. And, since your body is dumping liquid, you get thirsty because that liquid has to be replenished. >whereas >Sweating(excessive cold sweat) is symptom of hypoglycemia? The sweating is one of the symptoms of shock. If your blood glucose goes too low, you begin to go into shock, which is a bad thing. >Best wises Hope this helps.

Hence the hunger Thanks. Yes, but why people with hypeglycemia get too much hunger and overeat? > >How increase thirst and increased urination are symptoms of > >hyperglycemia [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > efforts to remove the glucose that is in the liquid.

This symptom of polydipsia and polyuria goes after some time of getting diabetes inspite much elevated glucose levels, persistently esp. when you take medicines and insulin but still persisting hyperglycemia? > And, since your body is dumping liquid, you get thirsty > because that liquid has to be replenished.

Yes, but whether vasodilation ocuurs and blood flow and supply to tissue is increased on getting hypoglycemia (may be for want of glucose) which may cause more water low and increased sweating? > >Best wises > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > - Show quoted text - On a tangent: It's common knowledge that sweating and increased urination can both deplete some vitamins and minerals.

None have established a causal relationship between nutritional deficiencies and the development of type-2 diabetes. On the other hand, a causal relationship has been established between overeating, increasing amounts of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), and the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) which is leads to type-2 diabetes. > Can't overnutrition cause excesses of few but defficiency of others/ > their antagonists?

The level of inflammatory cytokines in type-2 diabetics is a function of the amount of VAT and not medication. Andrew <>< -- Andrew B.

It is the overeating that results in the formation of VAT and not medications. Medications that are helpful will improve health making folks hungrier. It is those who remain brainwashed to falsely believe that "hunger is bad" who will be compelled to overeat. This latter compulsion will remain irrational. Andrew <>< -- Andrew B.
