High blood sugar significantly affects a person's appearance, scientists say.
We'll tell you how to tell if your sugar levels are elevated by your appearance.
How High Sugar Changes Your Appearance
As reported by Rossiyskaya Gazeta , the first sign of high sugar is skin problems, namely xerosis.
This condition is characterized by dry and rough skin, peeling, itching, and the formation of cracks (for example, in the area of the feet and elbows).
Xerosis is one of the characteristic signs of the development of diabetes, the publication writes.
Secondly, you should check your sugar levels if fat has started to accumulate more intensively in problem areas.
In addition, poorly healing wounds may indicate high sugar levels.
