The Most Dangerous Symptoms Of High Blood Sugar Whenever you consume foods that contain sugar (fruit,

pasta, bread, dessert, etc) your blood sugar level naturally rises but then it is brought back to normal by the release of insulin from your pancreas, which allows your cells to absorb the sugar from the blood in people without type 2 diabetes. But for diabetics, insulin is either not produced in adequate amounts or the sensitivity to insulin by your cells is impaired so the sugar remains in the blood, this results in high blood sugar (aka hyperglycemia). Along with high levels of sugar in your blood come complications, most of them severe. Normal blood sugar levels range from 70-120 mg/dL before meals, a fasting (first blood sugar in the morning prior to eating) of <110 mg/dL, and 140-160 mg/dL 12 hours post meal. High blood sugar (hyperglycemia) is defined as a reading of >180 mg/dL 1-2 hours post-meal. Factors That Cause High Blood Sugar Not taking your required diabetic medication as prescribed Any amount of carbohydrates bread, pasta, rice, fruits, potatoes, etc. Infections or illness Stress Low activity levels Obesity or being overweight Surgery Dehydration
