Unexpected weight loss can be a symptom of high blood sugar in non-diabetics, as the body struggles to utilize glucose for energy. When glucose cannot be effectively used for energy, the body begins to break down fat and muscle for fuel, leading to weight loss.
Unexplained weight loss can be particularly concerning, as it may indicate an underlying health issue, such as undiagnosed diabetes or another metabolic disorder. If you experience unexplained weight loss, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional to determine the cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Proper blood sugar control can help prevent further weight loss and support overall health. (9)
