What is the relationship between weight loss and diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
When you weigh less, your pancreas is better able to keep up with your body's need for insulin. It also lessens your risk for other serious complications of diabetes, including heart problems, kidney disease and nerve damage.

I've been dealing with low appetite, gum swelling, bleeding, bad breath, and very little saliva. My nose feels blocked, I have indigestion, piles, and this weird lump sensation in my throat. My hair's also turning grey early. All this started after my ear surgery in 2014. Blood tests showed high TSH levels, so I might have hypothyroidism. I read that drinking more water helps with mucus, but I'm not sure if I'm overdoing it. My lifestyle's pretty inactive what changes should I make and are there any medications that could help?
ent review is advised.
