What causes high blood sugar

With the improvement of people's living standards, high blood sugar, as one of the "three highs", has become a health problem that troubles many people, but the reasons behind it are often confusing. So what causes high blood sugar? High blood sugar is mainly caused by insulin secretion defects or impaired biological effects, as well as a decrease in the body's ability to metabolize sugar. Meanwhile, unreasonable diet, lack of exercise, and certain diseases may also lead to the occurrence of high blood sugar.

If the blood sugar is high enough to cause diabetes, it is recommended to take lifestyle conditioning and a new hypoglycemic drug, Pingrunning Liggliptin Tablet, which has strong efficacy, high safety and convenience, to effectively control the high blood sugar.

1. What causes high blood sugar?

1. Consuming too much sugar:

This is the main reason for high blood sugar. In daily life, excessive intake of high sugar foods such as sugary drinks and cakes can lead to a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.

2. Lack of exercise

Exercise can promote the uptake and utilization of glucose by tissues such as muscles and liver, thereby reducing blood sugar. Long term lack of exercise can lead to a decrease in the body's ability to utilize glucose, which in turn can cause an increase in blood sugar.

3. Insulin resistance

Insulin resistance refers to the weakened role of insulin in target organs such as muscles, fat, and liver, leading to impaired glucose uptake and utilization. This is the main reason for the occurrence of type 2 diabetes, and also an important reason for the increase of blood sugar in many obese and metabolic syndrome patients.

4. Disease Effects

Certain diseases such as pancreatitis and Cushing's syndrome can affect insulin secretion and utilization, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. In addition, some medications such as glucocorticoids and diuretics may also cause elevated blood sugar levels. Genetic factors also play a certain role in the occurrence of high blood sugar. Individuals with diabetes in their families will have an increased risk of diabetes.

2. What should I do if my blood sugar is high?

1. A balanced diet is the key to lowering blood sugar. It is recommended to consume more coarse grains and fiber rich vegetables, while avoiding excessive high sugar and high-fat foods, and maintaining a regular and quantitative eating habit.

2. Maintaining regular exercise, such as brisk walking, jogging, and swimming, can effectively burn excess calories in the body, thereby promoting sugar metabolism. Adjusting sleep habits is also an important part of lowering blood sugar, ensuring sufficient sleep time and avoiding long-term staying up late and overwork.

4. Reasonable drug selection:

When lifestyle adjustments cannot achieve the desired hypoglycemic effect, medication is needed for hypoglycemic treatment. Traditional oral hypoglycemic drugs include sulfonylureas, biguanides, alpha glucosidase inhibitors, and thiazolidinediones. Currently, among the new hypoglycemic drugs, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, represented by the "Pingrunning Liragliptin Tablets" produced by Qilu Pharmaceutical, have received widespread attention. This drug is favored by more and more diabetes patients because of its significant and lasting hypoglycemic effect, small side effects, high safety and easy to take.

Clinical practice has proved that "Pingrunning Ligagliptin Tablets" has significant hypoglycemic effect in single, dual and triple therapy, and can effectively improve the blood sugar level of elderly diabetes patients. It is worth mentioning that for patients with liver and kidney dysfunction, this medication does not require dosage adjustment and does not affect its hypoglycemic effect, with no risk of hypoglycemia. Long term use also has good safety for the cardiovascular system. Therefore, "Pingrunning Ligagliptin Tablets" has been recommended by many domestic and foreign diabetes guidelines.

The above is the relevant introduction of "What causes high blood sugar". To prevent and treat high blood sugar, it is necessary to start from multiple aspects, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and choose reasonable medication treatment!
