Fatigue
One of the defining symptoms of diabetes is extreme weariness. Diabetes fatigue syndrome is another name for it. Researchers aren't sure why it happens. Much research on fatigue and diabetes has been conducted, however, none have completely determined the causal relationship. The most commonly accepted explanation is that diabetes-related exhaustion is caused by variable blood glucose levels, which do not provide enough glucose for the body to consume for energy. The challenge of investigating the relationship between diabetes and weariness is also acknowledged by researchers.
Many co-occurring illnesses, as well as lifestyle variables, can produce weariness, such as:
- dehydration
- poor sleep quality
- lack of physical activity
- obesity
- deficient diet
- psychological issues
- hormonal imbalances
