When you overeat carbohydrates, your blood sugar rises, and insulin removes the sugar from the blood. Insulin also allows sugar to be used as fuel in the cell. Due to insulin resistance, many high blood sugar symptoms are related to low blood sugar and low sugar inside the cell.
Here are 7 high blood sugar warning signs.
1. Excessive urination
Waking up to urinate at night signifies a blood sugar problem and even a prediabetic situation. When you have too much sugar in the blood, it’s filtered by the kidneys and excreted in the urine.
2. Excessive thirst
Excessive urination leads to water loss and excessive thirst. High blood sugar causes sodium retention, which your body tries to dilute. High blood glucose also contributes to potassium deficiency, which also increases thirst.
3. Skin changes
Skin folds will often become darker due to excess glucose.
4. Brain fog and fatigue
Many people have no idea this is a symptom of high blood sugar! High blood sugar starves the neurons.
5. Mood swings
Irritability is often caused when your blood sugar that’s too high goes too low. A ketogenic diet can significantly improve mood issues.
6. Cravings
Cravings will typically be for sugar and salty carbs.
7. Blurry eyes
The lens of the eye becomes swollen, and the inside of the eye becomes reddened.
Fixing the diet and lowering carbohydrates could help eliminate symptoms of high blood sugar within weeks. You’ll also want to increase glucagon to decrease insulin by consuming high-quality protein like red meat, fish, or eggs.
An A1C test measures your blood sugar over 120 days. The higher the percentage of glycated hemoglobin you have, the more severe your diabetes is. If you’re on keto or the carnivore diet, you may notice that your A1C test is still high. This is because these diets extend the life of the red blood cells.

Agreed!
The video discusses 7 signs of high blood sugar: excessive urination, thirst, skin changes, brain fog, mood swings, cravings, and blurry vision. It explains insulin resistance, how to lower blood sugar through diet, and the A1C test.
Good bot
Tru
Oh! Spoiler alert 😅
Thank you. Sometimes the topic is important yet we don’t have time to watch the entire video atm… many don’t put it in the description. I do go back later and watch the entire video but this is helpful. 😊👍
For me… it was the blurred vision… even while wearing glasses.
I added fiber or protein before drinking my cappuccino and that fixed the problem.
Yes! I used to live my life as if I was constantly in a steamy shower. Everything was so blurry. Glad you fixed your issue too.
@@lilascharmante2712was the cause just insufficient protein and fiber intake despite supposedly normal sugar and low carb consumption?
Thank you Dr. for educating us for free. May God bless you.
Best ever doctor I ever been seen on youtube🎉
There’s a few more just as good.
I am so thankful Dr. Berg.
Peter Osborne is awesome too
My blood sugar levels always about 350 and 390.
I finally decided not to visit any doctor.
I started eating food which I can digest easily and started taking vitamin D after watching your videos. Multi vitamin as well.
Multi Collagen and Glucosamine for knee pain. Taking ghee regularly.
My sugar levels and RBA1C become much better.
Planning for blood test next week again.
Vitamin D helped a lot. Insulin too is good now
My Nephew had a level of 634 upon his first diagnosis, and said he had felt fine. I just said it is so gradual that you didn’t notice it going up. Some people go into a diabetic coma at that level. He is a big guy though.
I am doing keto and intermittent fasting to help me get healthy. It is working really well. My doctor does not understand anything about how I want to get healthy again. Thank you Dr. Berg, you have helped me so much.
Dr. Berg can be your new Dr. now ✅
A patient cured is a patient lost. 😉
@@truthseeker1959 You can say that again!
My wife self diagnosed herself with thyroid gland tumor and went under surgery to remove it which changed her life. Doctors couldn’t tell the reason for the symptoms she had and thought it was psychological. You should never consider your doctor’s opinion as the final answer
I told my doctor I went keto to get healthy… and she proceeded to lecture me about how bad it is to do that and how I needed to lose weight “the healthy way”.
I fired her and got a new doctor. 😂
Excessive urination
Excessive thirst
Skin changes
Brain fog / fatigued
Mood swings
Cravings
Blurry eyes/ feels like sand
Thank you
❤❤you are saving lives all over the world. Stay blessed in this world and hereafter.❤❤
I watch on a daily, new, old, all good video messages, to keep me focused.
JFK Jr got some of the food companies running around thinking hard about changing their ingredients…I started seeing them in the local stores changing prices and buy 2 cereals get 1 free….I bet the FDA workers doesn’t sleep good anymore, I glad for RFK Jr. getting this out in the open time will tell
Hi Eric, Bhavesh (Patel, MD) here…. great point about the A1c and increased lifespan of RBCs. The A1c is calculated on the idea that RBCs live 90 days, but if they live longer, more glycation, thus, higher A1c… The other thing that happens is LOW A1c and HIGH fasting glucose, which is due to gluconeogenesis (liver secreting glucose into bloodstream) when sugar levels drop during fasting.
Since you have identified yourself as Doctor, wouldn’t it be just as respectful to call ERIC DR. BERG?! Js 😊
I believe he knows Dr. Berg. How much more respect can he show than watching his videos?
@ yah! Probably true! Didn’t think of it that way. Thanks ☺️
@Whattheheck829 fyi, lots of doctors don’t call each other Dr. So and so. They talk to each other like a friend would by calling them by their first name or nick name.
@@Panthers89Fan9000000 true!
Eat healthy, exercise, take vitamin tabs, eat black garlic and fermented cabbage such as Sauerkraut & kimchi, take one spoon of extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar, drink kefir yogurt drink & matcha green tea and sleep well. That’s what I’ve done and just celebrated my 60th birthday lately. 😊😊😊
👏👏👏
So you take a spoon.of olive oil and mix with ACV??
Hi, glad you asked! A daily spoonful of olive oil may improve heart health, blood sugar control, and joint pain. Here is the information! 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx0dnHZuDmo
@@DrbergThe OPer didn’t ask. Is your comment an AI response?
I add ACV w/mother to my hot soups/bone broths. I find it calms my stomach and assists faster weight loss.
Anything the WHO recommends, I now do the opposite. A book ‘Health and Beauty Mastery’ by Julian Bannett exposes so many shocking truths. I completely changed my habits.
😂😂😂😂smart
me too and also read “Undoctored”
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos. I respect this man immensely. 🙏🏻🙏🙏🏻🤷
Me too.
Truly grateful for your encouragement and support. Keep doing great!
Diabetic from last 25 yrs and left Sita glumet 50/500+ diamicron MR60, after watching videos on YouTube. I m on one meal daily with tea two times, but my blood sugar remains 200, 188, @@Drberg
Thank you very much, Dr. Berg. I think the real danger is that the signs of high blood sugar appear at night, where no one notices them. Such as frequent urination at night, as the body tries to get rid of excess glucose. This can lead to dehydration, causing dry mouth and increased thirst. The person may also suffer from insomnia, waking up feeling tired. Headaches can occur as a result of blood sugar fluctuations. Signs include Others may feel unusually hungry despite eating enough food before bedtime. Some individuals may experience blurred vision when going to the bathroom at night. In more severe cases, there may be nausea or dizziness. These symptoms may worsen if left untreated, which underscores the importance of monitoring blood sugar levels during the night.
I had every single symptom mentioned (and more) during the latter stages of vegetarianism. Been keto and now carnivore for 2 years. Every day is a healing day for me. I feel like a new (better than ever) man.
Praise God. 🙏
