When your blood glucose level is too high the chronic medical complication called diabetes occurs! A hormone called insulin made by the pancreas helps glucose from your food to get into your body cells to make energy, and when a sufficient amount of insulin is not produced in our body the glucose level rises in the blood, however, unable to form energy.

If you are going to bathroom more than usual it may be an early sign of diabetes because body is trying to remove that extra glucose through urination.
