糖尿病,我们的舌头也可以发出一些信号,提醒我们关注血糖状况。

舌头的形状变化。如果发现自己的舌头变得肿大,甚至影响到呼吸和吞咽,那也要警惕血糖升高。因为高血糖会影响身体的排水功能,导致水肿,舌头也不例外

Yes, habitual snoring is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes: 

Mechanism

Snoring can obstruct the upper airway, leading to oxygen desaturation. This increases cortisol and catecholamine levels, which can increase insulin resistance. 

Association

Studies have found that people who snore more frequently and more intensely have higher levels of fasting glucose and HbA1c. For example, one study found that people who snored severely were 2.24 times more likely to develop diabetes than non-snorers.
