Latent (latent) diabetes is dangerous because of the absence of symptoms. Because of this, treatment and diagnosis are often difficult. Latent diabetes mellitus can be detected by indirect signs, but the symptoms of the disease overlap with other diseases, which makes timely treatment difficult.

Latent diabetes mellitus is the most dangerous form of the disease, because not all patients know what it is. Latent diabetes has the same symptoms in men and women, but often patients do not pay attention to these signs of the development of the disease due to their vagueness.

To make a diagnosis, it is necessary to conduct a blood test from a finger for hidden sugar. This analysis is not mandatory when undergoing a routine examination of the body, so latent diabetes can be ignored for a long time and not started treatment.

Signs and symptoms of developing latent diabetes mellitus in women are as follows:

• skin rashes, boils;
• gum disease;
• weakening of the teeth;
• violation of the sensitivity of the legs;
• leg numbness.

In men, sexual dysfunction is also added to these symptoms, and a decrease in libido can also be noticed.

The latent form of developing diabetes mellitus, the symptoms of which at first do not cause concern, is also characterized by a violation of the protective function of the skin in women. The skin becomes thin and sensitive, small rashes appear, the skin peels off. This condition is caused by the influence of pathogenic factors, against which the regeneration and protective function of the skin is disturbed.

The protective barrier of the skin is destroyed by an increase in the concentration of glucose in the blood, which leads to dehydration and sensitivity of the facial skin in women.

Latent (hidden) diabetes mellitus is characterized by ever-increasing thirst. The patient is thirsty, the amount of fluid consumed increases sharply, but the thirst does not go away. Many patients report persistent dry mouth.

Another sign is a change in body weight. Moreover, it can be both a rapid set of extra pounds in women, and groundless (against the background of increased appetite) weight loss.

On the part of the nervous system, patients report symptoms such as lethargy and apathy, unreasonably bad mood and fatigue.

Who is at risk?

Such a disease does not occur in a completely healthy person. The factors provoking the development of pathology include:

• older age;
• hormonal disorders;
• genetic predisposition to diabetes;
• diseases of the pancreas.

The disease is often found in women who progress to polycystic ovarian disease.

At an older age, the disease occurs equally in men and women.

An important nuance is the presence of excess weight. Obesity leads to a slowdown in metabolic processes, against which the risk of developing the disease increases many times over.

Diagnosis of the disease

A latent or latent form of diabetes mellitus in patients is detected using a blood test to determine hidden sugar.

A blood test from a finger for hidden sugar is carried out only in the laboratory.

The most reliable way to determine such a disease is a glucose tolerance test. The research is carried out in two stages.

At the first stage, blood taken on an empty stomach is examined. Then, after this test, the patient is injected with a small amount of glucose into the blood, either orally. After three hours after this manipulation, repeated blood sampling is carried out.

Another diagnostic method is a urine test for the presence of glucose. There is no sugar in the urine of a healthy person, since the body does not allow such consumption of glucose. Latent diabetes is successfully diagnosed using this analysis.

Possible Complications

The danger of latent diabetes lies in the effect of glucose on the blood vessels.

Due to the accumulation of glucose, vascular permeability is impaired. Significantly increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease in women. At an older age, the disease threatens a heart attack, which can lead to death.

Possible complications of the latent form of the disease:

• thrombus formation;
• stroke;
• heart attack;
• heart failure;
• violation of the organs of vision;
• diseases of the nervous system.

According to statistics, the risk of death from heart failure or heart attack in people with a latent form of diabetes is three times higher than in a healthy person.

Treatment of the disease

Having understood what latent or latent asymptomatic diabetes mellitus is, many people ask the question of whether this disease can be cured.

There is an opinion that this type of disease is a direct harbinger of the acquired form of the disease (type 2 diabetes). This myth is unfounded and the latent form of the disease can be cured if the diagnosis is made at the initial stage of the development of the disease.

Having discovered hidden sugar in the blood, having passed the test, as well as the initial symptoms of the disease, it is necessary to consult an endocrinologist. In most cases, treatment can be carried out without the use of medications.

Treatment is based primarily on regular physical activity and muscle strengthening. During physical activity, muscle fibers intensively absorb glucose, thereby normalizing the patient's blood sugar level.

What kind of sport is better to do, everyone chooses on their own. Since the disease occurs mainly in metabolic disorders and is accompanied by excess weight, the best option would be gentle sports - brisk walking, swimming pool or cycling.

If the physical form allows active strength training, doctors recommend going to the gym to build muscle. The more developed the muscles, the more glucose is required for their work, which means that sugar will not accumulate in the blood. However, the sports load should not be excessive. Before engaging in any kind of sports, it is necessary to consult a doctor so as not to harm your own health.

Along with sports, the patient needs proper nutrition, which will not contribute to an increase in sugar levels. Treatment with a diet is prescribed by a doctor who draws up a menu, depending on the characteristics of the patient's state of health.

Taboo is imposed on the following products:

• fatty meats;
• any semi-finished products;
• fried potatoes;
• confectionery;
• alcohol;
• sausage products.

Normalization of metabolism and getting rid of excess weight will reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by half.

Some time after adjusting the lifestyle, the symptoms of latent diabetes will disappear, however, as a preventive measure, the diet should be controlled throughout life and obesity should not be allowed. For preventive purposes, it is enough to go in for sports two or three times a week for half an hour, while it is not necessary to perform a set of exercises, it is enough just to move actively and walk a lot.

Latent diabetes mellitus is a pathology that often goes unnoticed. This condition is serious, because if not properly treated, it can develop into full-fledged diabetes.

Due to the long absence of properly selected therapy, the disease often develops into full-fledged diabetes. You can recognize such an ailment by increased thirst and frequent urge to go to the toilet.

Latent diabetes causes serious damage to the cardiovascular system, can cause stroke, heart attack, hypertension, heart failure and much more.

Risk factors

Recognizing the latent form of diabetes is extremely difficult. The disease does not manifest itself for a long time, but at the same time it has a powerful effect on the body.

There are certain risk factors by which it is often possible to diagnose latent diabetes mellitus.

These include:

1. Age - statistics show that 80% of older people have symptoms of a latent form of diabetes. Because of this, they lose their sight, they feel worse.
2. Hereditary predisposition - changes in the genotype can also cause the development of this disease. This factor is especially important in the presence of provoking factors.
3. Excess body weight - extra pounds disrupt normal metabolism, which can lead to impaired glucose tolerance. Studies have shown that the latent form of diabetes is diagnosed in 40% of obese people.
4. Pregnancy is a condition of the female body, a violation of all metabolic processes in the body, which can disrupt the production of insulin. To prevent this, a woman during gestation is advised to carefully monitor her health and follow a special diet.
5. Diseases of the pancreas - they destroy the functional tissue of this organ, because of which it begins to produce an insufficient amount of insulin.

Main danger

Latent diabetes is much more dangerous than the usual form of this disease.

This is due to the fact that a person may not know his disease for a long time and lead a normal life. Also, he will not take special medications that protect his body from the negative effects of pathology.

Since time, due to the latent form of diabetes mellitus, blood vessels have been seriously affected: they stretch, they can become clogged. This leads to an increased risk of strokes and heart attacks, decreased vision, and diabetic foot formation. It is the lack of awareness of one's disease that is the main danger in this disease.

Symptoms

The latent form of diabetes mellitus is a disease that in most cases can be diagnosed quite by accident. Despite this, some people notice changes in their body and sound the alarm in time. However, this rarely happens, mostly patients live for many years without knowing about their disease.

Latent diabetes mellitus is most often recognized by the following ailments:

• A strong sensation of itching, peeling of the skin - these signs occur under the influence of microorganisms that develop extremely quickly in the blood with high sugar. Also, on the skin of a diabetic, there is no special protection that could prevent the development of any disorders.
• Dry mouth, constant thirst is a symptom that occurs with any form of diabetes. A person is forced to constantly carry a bottle of water with him. However, many patients do not pay any attention to such a deviation; this manifestation remains especially unnoticed in the summer.
• Abrupt changes in body weight - due to impaired glucose tolerance in people, drastic changes in body weight can occur without changing the diet. Usually a person immediately loses weight, after which he rapidly gains weight. Everything is accompanied by a brutal appetite and desire for sweets.

The latent form of diabetes mellitus is complemented by pain in the heart, dizziness, decreased visual acuity, sleep disturbance, mood swings and increased irritability.

Women begin to sound the alarm when their hair becomes drier, their nails brittle, pigmentation increases and there is severe itching in the perineum. Keep in mind that only a few symptoms can indicate a latent form of diabetes.

Latent diabetes mellitus is a pre-diabetic state, which, if favorable factors arise, will flow into an open form.

It does not manifest itself for a long time, but you can recognize it by the following signs in your body:

To prevent the development of latent diabetes mellitus, it is recommended to regularly take a blood test for glucose. Quite often, such a disease does not manifest itself in any sign, it can be detected quite by accident.

Also try to listen to your body, it can signal you about such a deviation in functioning.

Diagnostics

Due to the latent course of the disease, it is quite difficult to diagnose the latent form of diabetes mellitus. Almost always, the disease proceeds without causing any changes in the body. The complexity of diagnosis lies in the fact that a routine blood or urine test cannot show such disorders in the endocrine system.

The only way to determine diabetes mellitus is a glucose tolerance test.

Glucose tolerance test helps to determine how the body reacts to the sugar that enters it. The procedure is carried out in 3 stages. First of all, a person donates blood from a finger on an empty stomach, after which he immediately drinks a solution of 75 grams of glucose.

After that, he is sent for a walk for 1 hour, after which blood is taken again. The study is repeated after another hour. The results obtained allow us to conclude how the body reacts to the sugar entering it.

If the doctor was able to diagnose any abnormalities in the study of glucose tolerance, the person is immediately sent for an extended diagnostic examination. He is immediately prescribed a suitable treatment to help reduce the negative effects of glucose on the body.

Keep in mind that self-medication with such a disease is extremely dangerous. Prolonged delay can turn pre-diabetes into full-fledged.

Treatment

Latent diabetes can be called prediabetes. If you follow all the recommendations of the attending physician, you will be able to prevent the transition of this form of the disease to a full-fledged one.

To do this, follow the instructions below:

1. Change your eating habits right away. More than half of the success depends on the diet. With the right nutrition, you will be able to normalize your metabolism, as well as nourish the body with potassium. This macronutrient is necessary for the normal functioning of the cardiovascular system.
2. Start leading an active lifestyle - physical activity helps restore metabolism. Also, the formed muscles will absorb some of the glucose, due to which its concentration in the blood will decrease.
3. Take all the medications prescribed by your doctor - usually drugs that bind and remove glucose are prescribed for the treatment of such a disease.
4. Give up bad habits that negatively affect the body's immune abilities.
   Regularly drink vitamin complexes that nourish the body with useful substances.
5. Take decoctions of medicinal herbs that restore metabolism.

Proper nutrition

Proper nutrition with a latent form of diabetes will help restore normal metabolism. Thanks to this, it is possible to reduce the concentration of glucose in the blood, as well as to adjust the body's response to incoming sugar. You will also bring your body weight back to normal, which has a positive effect on well-being.

If at the initial stages of the latent form of diabetes to revise your diet, you can fully adjust the work of the whole organism.

What is possible?	What is impossible?
Dietary meats Kefir and unsweetened yogurt Compotes, decoctions, fruit drinks Honey and jam (limited) Fresh vegetables and fruits Blueberry Seafood Legumes Porridges and cereals Pasta	Fatty meats Fatty dairy products Alcoholic drinks Chocolate, muffin, cakes

(DM) is a rather serious danger for the patient, since the latter usually does not even see signs of the development of the disease.

But almost every disease is much more difficult to treat if it is neglected or untimely detected by doctors.

Therefore, any person should know the symptoms of latent diabetes mellitus in order to seek immediate medical help.

LADA-diabetes: what is it?

Not everyone has an idea that in addition to the main ones, there are also special varieties of it, which include LADA.

The name itself was given to a latent type of autoimmune diabetes, observed in patients of the category, while children are not affected.

It should be noted that every patient who falls into the LADA-diabetes group, as well as people with an urgent, mandatory need. Usually, simultaneously with the patient's body begins to suffer from the breakdown of cells responsible for the production of insulin.

As a result, autoimmune processes occur. Such a painful condition is accompanied by the destruction of each cell of the insular apparatus of a patient older than 35 years. It must be remembered that this type of diabetic disease proceeds rather slowly and resembles a developmental process.

True, there is one significant difference between them, which boils down to the fact that in the first case all beta cells die completely, which leads to the cessation of production.

Usually 100% dependence on receiving an additional dose of insulin is formed in the period of time 1-3 years from the moment the disease forms.

Moreover, the disease is accompanied by typical symptoms in men and women.

Forms of the disease

The ailment in question is divided into 2 forms. Each of them has its own specific distinguishing feature. Moreover, even the therapy of the initial phase of both diseases is carried out according to various schemes.

However, the more time passes from the moment of diagnosing diabetes, the less pronounced the symptoms of its forms, and the course of treatment is already following an almost identical pattern.

Today, doctors distinguish the following diseases:

1. type I diabetes mellitus. It is considered and belongs to the category of severe ailments, and patients have to observe enough. Such diabetes "destroys" the cells of the pancreas. People with this diagnosis are forced to regularly inject insulin, as it undergoes destruction in the gastrointestinal tract;
2. type II diabetes mellitus. The described disease refers to insulin-independent and is formed in patients older than 40 years of age, suffering. In this type of diabetes, the cells in the body receive an excess of nutrients, which causes them to lose their sensitivity to insulin.

With the development of type II of the described disease, it is not always advisable to prescribe insulin injections to the patient. And only the endocrinologist resolves such a question. True, usually such patients are prescribed a specially designed one, but not more than 3 kg per month.

When the diet does not have a positive effect, doctors prescribe pills, the action of which is aimed at reducing blood sugar levels. Insulin is used in exceptional cases, when the disease can already threaten the patient's life.

Why does hidden sugar appear in the blood?

The formation of hidden sugar can appear in both men and women, which is completely independent of their age. However, everyone should know about its main causes.

So, hidden sugar appears when:

• infectious processes;
• pregnancy;
• neurosis, stress;
• overweight;
• autoimmune diseases;
• kidney failure.

It should be noted that pregnancy very often causes the formation of hidden sugar.

In addition, such a "trouble" can happen against the background of heart attacks, hard physical work. , abuse, failure of normal processes in the digestive tract, the use of certain medications can also lead to an increase in the level of lactose in the blood.

Signs and symptoms of latent diabetes in women and men

Latent diabetes is practically asymptomatic and is a form of diabetes.

As the name implies, a specific feature of such an ailment is the absence of symptoms that can indicate its development. This form is a kind of borderline, beyond which true diabetes sets in.

For this reason, its timely diagnosis is a great success, since there is a chance to prevent the onset of a chronic form. Today, doctors indicate individual signs by which you can learn about the development of the described disease. Moreover, these symptoms vary slightly depending on gender.

A woman with latent DM notices the presence of:

• dryness of the skin, rashes and others caused by microbes, bacteria of a pathogenic nature;
• , depressive, apathetic states.

As for men, the early period of latent DM practically does not manifest itself in them due to the absence of its external symptoms. This greatly complicates the process of identifying the disease.

However, the following should alert a man:

• , which is explained by difficulties with the absorption of sugar;
• attacks of chronic fatigue, drowsiness and fatigue as a result of lack of energy;
• irritating, itchy feeling on the skin (palms, groin, feet);
• rapid changes in weight;
• high degree of sweating.

If you have at least one of the above symptoms, whether in a woman or a man, you should immediately seek the advice of a doctor.

How to identify and make a diagnosis?

It is quite difficult to diagnose the latent form of DM due to the inconspicuous course of the disease.

Therefore, usually the patient resorts to qualified medical care already with a running form.

But it is still possible to identify it. Recognition of latent diabetes mellitus is carried out by means of a glucose tolerance test - TSH.

The essence of the procedure is that the patient's sugar level is measured on an empty stomach, after which he is given 75 ml of glucose. After 3 hours, the measurement is repeated. If certain changes are detected, a diagnosis is made - diabetes, even if it is a latent form.

However, such a definition of diabetes is laborious. This method is acceptable if advanced laboratory facilities are available. For this reason, another, simpler version of the diagnosis of the latent form of DM is used.

A simple method involves the delivery of urine by the patient before and after the use of a specific dose. The protective filter of a healthy person does not allow sugar to pass through, while when it enters the urine, there is reason to assume that there is a process of development of latent DM.

Treatment of the latent form of DM

Latent diabetes mellitus is a rather dangerous disease, for this reason, its therapy should be carried out with a mandatory visit to a medical institution. But it doesn't take much effort to heal.

Today, there are several treatment options for the described disease, which include:

1. drug therapy. Latent diabetes mellitus is treated with mandatory insulin injections. To improve the sensitivity to this hormone from the side of the peripheral structure, as well as the tissues of the body, doctors recommend the use of blood sugar-lowering agents, produced in the form of tablets. In addition, derivatives from biguanides - glitazones are sometimes prescribed;
2. treatment with folk remedies. The course of the described disease can be facilitated by such a technique. But before using this method, it is imperative to consult a doctor. In the treatment of diabetes, about two hundred types of herbs are used, which contain substances that reduce the level of glucose presence. However, with this option, you should not count on a quick result;
3. diet and exercise. The main principle of the diabetic nutrition program for diabetes is to reduce the amount of fat consumed, easily digestible carbohydrates with the choice of food rich in proteins, potassium. Vegetables should be eaten raw or baked. Also, a diabetic should not "indulge" in alcohol, as they lead to a loss of calcium. Physical exercise leads to a reduction in body weight, which is especially important in latent diabetes.

Only strict adherence to all the recommendations of the endocrinologist will contribute to the achievement of a positive effect in the fight against latent DM.

Summing up, we can conclude that such a dangerous disease as latent diabetes requires the most serious and responsible approach to its diagnosis and treatment. Despite the fact that the disease is secretive, there are still symptoms by which it can be diagnosed.

In general, the success of therapy depends on when the pathology was detected, as well as what method was used. The best option is a competent combination of drug treatment with traditional medicine recipes and a set of physical exercises. However, the course of treatment should be determined only by a specialist after passing the appropriate tests.

Diabetes tests

Since 1980, the World Health Organization has allowed a special examination (only adults). To determine glucose tolerance allows the use of the following analysis - GTT. Glucose tolerance test reveals up to 60% of pathological patients with latent diabetes. Of this number of people, the disease can develop in only 25-45% of cases. Differences in the results appear due to the inability to take into account all the associated organ dysfunctions (thyroid gland, liver, kidneys), existing infectious processes in the body.

3 days before the standard test, patients are canceled some medications (hyperglycemic agents, salicylates, corticosteroids, estrogens). At this time, the tested person is on a regular diet, observes the usual physical activity. On the appointed day, GTT is carried out on an empty stomach, in the time interval from 10 to 16 hours, always at rest. Glucose is used in the amount of 75 g. Then blood is taken three times within two hours.

If the indicators of any research sample exceed the norm, then doctors diagnose the state of pre-diabetes mellitus, its latent form:

• on an empty stomach - up to 6.11 mmol / l;
• after 1 hour - 9.99 mmol / l;
• after 2 hours - 7.22 mmol / l.

The next important criterion is glycated or glycosylated hemoglobin. This is an indicator of the average value of the level of glycemia (sugars) over several months. Its normal values ​​should be in the range of 5 to 7 mmol/l. An auxiliary analysis for the content of C-peptides is also performed. Leading clinics at the time of hospitalization always perform it in a patient with suspected diabetes.

Features of the origin of diabetes

Diagnosable diabetes indicates metabolic disorders in the body. There is an assumption that they are associated with genetic defects that are inherited. The classification of endocrinological diseases of the pancreas into two types is very conditional.

It concerns only primary diabetes, which is still incurable. Type 2 patients may be on insulin therapy, and vice versa, it is not uncommon for children whose therapy, like the elderly, consists in the use of tablets and diet. The level of glucose in secondary diabetes rises sporadically due to the occurrence of other diseases and is successfully cured.

Type 1 disease starts in children, young people more often in an acute form and is accompanied by obvious manifestations

With latent diabetes mellitus, the symptoms may be mild, not in aggregate, but individually, masked, both in primary and secondary diseases. It all depends on the individuality of the organism, its genetic potential, physical characteristics. At the same time, routine tests do not indicate hyperglycemia (elevated sugar levels) for a certain time. Endocrinologists recommend that people at risk regularly (1-2 times a year) take GTT, analyzes for glycated hemoglobin and C-peptides.

The probability of inheriting type 1 diabetes on the maternal side is up to 7%, on the paternal side - 10%. If both parents are affected, the chances of a child getting sick jump to 70%. The probability of maternal and paternal lines of type 2 is inherited equally - 80%, if both parents are sick - 100%.

The disease can also be acquired. The role of the trigger mechanism for the manifestation of symptoms is usually played by:

• viral infections (chicken pox, rubella, epidemic hepatitis or influenza);
• diseases that cause damage to pancreatic beta cells (cancer of the endocrine organ, pancreatitis);
• obesity, overweight, obesity;
• constant nervous stress, emotional overstrain.

The combination of several factors equates to the likelihood of developing diabetes, as in individuals with a burdened heredity for the disease.

Children should be correctly warned at the appropriate age about the existing burden of diabetes.

Latent and other types of diabetes

The number of cases of diabetes of various forms is steadily growing, especially in highly developed and wealthy countries. This is caused not only by the increase in obesity in humans, lack of physical activity and excessive overeating.

What doctors say about diabetes

Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Aronova S. M.

For many years I have been studying the problem of DIABETES. It's scary when so many people die and even more become disabled due to diabetes.

I hasten to announce the good news - the Endocrinological Research Center of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences has managed to develop a drug that completely cures diabetes mellitus. At the moment, the effectiveness of this drug is approaching 100%.

Another good news: the Ministry of Health has achieved the adoption special program which covers the entire cost of the drug. In Russia and CIS countries, diabetics before can get a remedy FOR FREE.

Latent diabetes mellitus is also called latent, and the main danger of this disease is that it is very difficult to detect. This is a special form of the disease in which the patient feels well, does not complain about his health and well-being, and can only find out about the problem after passing the tests. The presence of latent diabetes is indicated by elevated levels of sugar in the blood or urine.

In a healthy person, glycemia is always the same - regardless of gender and age. A blood glucose tolerance test should have a sugar reading of more than 120 mg on an empty stomach and more than 200 mg after glucose intake. If the indicators are higher, then you need to consult a doctor, conduct a more examination and begin treatment.

If the blood test is normal, but your health indicates that you are not completely healthy, you should perform a urinalysis. A healthy body retains sugar, and in diabetes, it is excreted with urine, so such a study is necessary if you suspect an initial stage of diabetes.

It is advisable to take such tests at least once a year, otherwise you risk missing the onset of the disease, and it will be much more difficult to cure it later.

Even if you feel well, some minor signs can be a sign of health problems. Already at this stage, internal organs begin to suffer and be damaged, in particular, the walls of blood vessels become weaker and more fragile. This can lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack, heart failure, hypertension, and stroke. There may be disturbances in the functioning of the nervous system, weakening of vision, skin itching, fatigue, pain in the legs, rapid weight gain or loss, and a sudden “brutal” appetite. All these signs may indicate the development of the disease. Its main danger is a gradual and imperceptible development and a possible sharp exacerbation at any time under the influence of adverse external factors or when the body is weakened in other diseases.

There are several risk factors that increase the likelihood of developing.

• Advanced age. The older the person, the less energy the body has and the higher the likelihood of problems with sugar. Statistics show that approximately 80% of people over 65 years of age have symptoms of latent diabetes or have an open form.
• hereditary predisposition. Most often, people with diabetes suffer from diabetes who have relatives with such a diagnosis. They have a much higher risk of facing such a problem with a hereditary predisposition than those in whose family no one suffers from hyperglycemia.
• The presence of excess weight. Most often, it appears from malnutrition, a sedentary lifestyle, addiction to fast food, sweets and alcohol. With weight gain, metabolic processes in the body, the work of the endocrine system are disturbed and worsen, and signs of diabetes appear. They are observed in 25-30% of people who have extra pounds.
• Pregnancy. The body of a woman who is expecting a child is rebuilt, spends a lot of energy, and in some cases, metabolic processes may fail. Therefore, every woman in position should donate blood for sugar and undergo an examination to exclude the possibility of developing an ailment. If there are signs of the disease, you will have to switch to a special diet and be under the supervision of doctors until the baby is born and for some time after childbirth. With proper treatment and diet, the body heals itself, and the problem goes away without a trace.
• Viruses. In some diseases or complications after them, the pancreas that produces insulin can suffer and provoke an increase in blood sugar.

be careful

According to the World Health Organization, 2 million people die every year from diabetes and its complications. In the absence of qualified body support, diabetes leads to various complications, gradually destroying the human body.

The most common complications are: diabetic gangrene, nephropathy, retinopathy, trophic ulcers, hypoglycemia, ketoacidosis. Diabetes can also lead to the development of cancerous tumors. In almost all cases, a diabetic either dies while struggling with a painful disease, or turns into a real invalid.

What should people with diabetes do? The Endocrinological Research Center of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences succeeded make a remedy completely curing diabetes.

Currently, the Federal program "Healthy Nation" is underway, within the framework of which this drug is issued to every resident of the Russian Federation and the CIS FOR FREE. For detailed information, see official website MINISTRY OF HEALTH.

Who is at risk?

Such a disease does not occur in a completely healthy person. The factors provoking the development of pathology include:

• older age;
• obesity;
• hormonal disorders;
• genetic predisposition to diabetes;
• diseases of the pancreas.

The disease is often found in women who progress to polycystic ovarian disease.

At an older age, the disease occurs equally in men and women.

An important nuance is the presence of excess weight. Obesity leads to a slowdown in metabolic processes, against which the risk of developing the disease increases many times over.

The insidiousness of this pathology lies in the fact that patients often do not notice the symptoms and signs indicating the presence of a disease in the body. Therefore, it is very important to know what symptoms are characteristic of the latent form of diabetes. These include itching and flaking of the skin, a prolonged feeling of dry mouth, a sharp increase or decrease in body weight.

Note that skin problems, as a rule, occur with the negative influence of pathogenic organisms. An important sign is also a constant, inexplicable feeling of thirst, which manifests itself regardless of the weather conditions or the dryness of the premises. Another important symptom indicating latent diabetes is a sudden change in weight. Typically, diabetic patients first quickly lose weight, and then gain excess weight again. Increased appetite is often associated with good health, but in the end it may indicate the development of the pathology in question.
