🔍 8. You Feel Tingling or Numbness in Hands and Feet
Tingling, burning, or “pins and needles” in your extremities could be a warning sign of peripheral neuropathy — nerve damage caused by chronic high blood sugar.
Over time, excess glucose damages the delicate nerves in your hands and feet, leading to:
Numbness
Pain
Loss of sensation
⚠️ This is common in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes — but the good news? It’s often reversible if caught early.
Nuts (vitamin E)
Green tea (fights AGEs)

Increased risk of anxiety and depression
Irritability and emotional crashes
Poor concentration and brain fog
A 2017 study in Scientific Reports found that men who consumed 67+ grams of sugar daily had a 23% higher risk of developing depression over five years.
