Don’t Ignore These Nighttime Signs of Diabetes | Dr. Zee | डॉक्टर ज़ी

In this video I'm going to talk about some signs and symptoms of high blood sugar that might occur while you’re sleeping. 1. Frequent urinating This is known as nocturia and occurs when your kidneys remove excess sugar from your blood. 2. Excessive thirst As your kidneys eliminate sugar through your urine, you deplete magnesium, potassium, and calcium. You can also become dehydrated, so you may have excessive thirst. 3. Restless legs syndrome Excess sugar depletes vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 deficiency causes lactic acid buildup and a lack of oxygen in the legs. This can also be related to magnesium deficiency. 4. Peripheral neuropathy This condition causes burning, pain, or numbness on the bottom of the feet. Benfotiamine combined with alpha lipoic acid is a great remedy. 5. Cramps in lower legs and feet Too much sugar in the blood can cause a magnesium deficiency and calcium buildup. Magnesium glycinate supplements can help, and can also improve sleep. 6. Excessive sweating This usually occurs in the face, neck, or upper part of the body. High blood sugar causes sympathetic dominance, which causes a person to be in a constant state of fight or flight. 7. Sleep apnea This usually occurs because a person has high levels of insulin. 8. Delayed sleep High levels of sugar delay the release of melatonin. 9. Gastric reflux High blood sugar can affect the autonomic nervous system that controls the valve on the top of the stomach, causing GERD. 10. Nightmares/vivid dreams This is typically related to a neurotransmitter problem caused by a deficiency in vitamin B1, which is depleted by high blood sugar. 11. High blood pressure Nocturnal dipping occurs when your blood pressure and pulse rate decrease during sleep. When you have diabetes, this doesn’t happen. This is called non-dipping. 12. Teeth grinding The activation of the sympathetic nervous system puts a person into a state of stress while they’re sleeping, causing teeth grinding.
