What are the symptoms of Diabetes?

I know that two symptoms are having to pee a lot and also being very thirsty. I do think that diet and exercise are the best mitigaters, if there are any. Have you looked at some diabetes websites or checked out www.webmd.com for some good info?

If you know you have a high chance genetically for diabetes, then it’s a good thing to have a talk with your doctor. For some people they eat right, exercise and get it anyway. Despite common thought- some people just develop diabetes despite what they eat. Good news is that research is now pointing that if caught early, some people prone to develop diabetes can be kept healthy by changing their lifestyle now and taking medication.
