The symptoms of early diabetes are often insidious and not obvious, but they are an important basis for us to find diabetes.

First of all, polydipsia and polyuria are one of the typical symptoms of diabetes. If you are thirsty and drink significantly more water, urinate more frequently and more urine, you should be alert to diabetes.

Secondly, the sweetness of urine is also an important indicator of diabetes. When blood sugar is abnormally high, the kidneys are unable to fully reabsorb excess glucose, causing sugar to be excreted from the body. So, if you notice that your urine has an unusually sweet taste, it could be a sign of diabetes.

In addition, fatigue and weakness are also one of the early symptoms of diabetes. As the patient's cells are unable to adequately absorb and utilize glucose for energy, the body's energy** is insufficient. This makes people with diabetes often feel tired and listless.

In addition to the above three symptoms, some other young adult patients also have abnormal manifestations such as significant weight loss and rapid increase in food intake. Abnormal taste, including food that is not easy to eat, and even loss of appetite, is one of the symptoms of some patients. In addition, due to abnormal intracellular energy metabolism in some patients, it often leads to slow healing of wounds at the infected site, or it is not easy to heal, which is also an early symptom worthy of vigilance.

So, in view of the above symptoms, how should we diagnose diabetes in time?Traditional Chinese medicine believes that diabetes is caused by spleen and stomach disorders, liver and gallbladder dampness, kidney deficiency and qi and blood imbalance, and proposes some traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions that can assist diabetes.

First of all, spleen and stomach disorders are one of the pathogenesis of diabetes. Traditional Chinese medicine suggests that you can choose the Four Gentlemen Soup or the Six Gentlemen Soup for conditioning. These formulas can promote the digestion and absorption function of the spleen and stomach, enhance the body's absorption of nutrients, and improve the body's metabolic function.

Secondly, hepatobiliary dampness and heat is one of the important factors of diabetes. You can choose a prescription such as Xiaoyaosan or Gentian Liver Soup for conditioning. These formulas can clear away heat and detoxify, reduce the generation and accumulation of damp heat, reduce the burden on the liver and gallbladder and promote the normal metabolism of blood sugar.

In addition, kidney loss is also one of the most important aspects of diabetes. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that choosing a prescription that invigorates the kidney and qi, such as Liuwei Dihuang Pill and Bazhen Tang, can improve the condition of kidney qi loss, enhance the body's immunity and resistance, and achieve the effect of stabilizing blood sugar.

Finally, imbalance of qi and blood is also one of the pathogenesis of diabetes. In traditional Chinese medicine, choosing a prescription that invigorates qi and invigorates blood, such as Yangxin Qi Tang or Huoxue and Huayu Tang, can improve qi and blood circulation, promote the body's metabolism, and maintain the stability of blood sugar.

In summary, it is very important to detect and understand the symptoms of early diabetes in time. In addition to regular medical check-ups, we can also carry out early prevention and ** through the way of traditional Chinese medicine. However, the ** of traditional Chinese medicine is only an auxiliary **, and it also needs to cooperate with the doctor's medicine ** and life conditioning in order to achieve better results. Therefore, once the early symptoms of diabetes appear, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time and follow the doctor's advice to prevent and control the development of diabetes.
