The American Diabetic Diet
Diabetes often goes undiagnosed because its symptoms are usually ignored. Often we get sick but pay no attention to the special diabetic symptoms we are having, we just think that we are not feeling well. Symptoms of type 1 diabetes often come on suddenly and are severely dramatic. The extra stress of diabetes can lead to something called diabetic ketoacidosis. Symptoms of ketoacidosis may include nausea and vomiting, which may also lead to dehydration and serious problems with the blood levels of potassium. This could lead to a diabetic coma and ultimately death.
