People say that most diseases are caused by eating and drinking, hypertension, diabetes, high blood fat and nutrition. But some babies may get diabetes even when they are only a few years old, because it is really a metabolic problem in the body, not a single food. What is the symptom of diabetes in 2-year-old babies?
Symptoms of 2-year-old diabetes
1. Fatigue, weakness, and susceptibility to infection. The child was in a period of vigorous growth and development, and should be active, but suddenly he always likes to stay at home for a period of time, does not like outdoor activities, and is depressed, which may be a precursor of diabetes.
2. Frequent abdominal pain and vomiting can easily be misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal diseases and worsen the condition. Parents should have sufficient understanding of their children's daily life and mental state in order to provide doctors with sufficient diagnostic information.
3. Sudden weight loss and increased appetite indicate that the child is in the stage of growth and development, and their weight should continue to steadily increase. However, parents should be alert to sudden weight loss. This feature is easy to be ignored. Most parents think it is a normal situation in the child's growth and development, but they should pay attention to whether there are other signs of diabetes.
Causes of baby diabetes
It has been proved that both humoral immunity and cellular immunity are related to diabetes; Environmental factors, such as viral infections of Coxsackievirus B, EB virus, mumps virus, etc; Premature and excessive intake of cow milk protein, in which casein is used as antigen, triggers the occurrence of diabetes. Cow insulin in cow's milk can cause immune reactions that disrupt the function of human beta cells; Genetic susceptibility, there is heritability, and it has been confirmed that the histocompatibility complex gene located on the short arm of chromosome 6 in white blood cells is a susceptibility gene.
If there is someone in the family who is not in good health, the whole family will be anxious and worried, especially the baby. When the baby has health problems, parents may want to get sick on their own. When adding complementary foods, parents should be gradual and avoid giving the child too sweet or greasy food. If they cannot digest it, it will only increase the burden on their body in the end.
