Guangdong man madly eats sugar cane, sugar and oranges, causing insanity. What happened?

Recently, a man in Huizhou City, Guangdong Province suffered from irritability, gibberish, and even delirium after eating 2-3 kilograms of sugar cane and sugar oranges every day for a week. After a doctor’s examination, the man was in a state of hyperglycemia and hyperosmolarity due to eating a lot of high-sugar fruits and insufficient water intake. Fortunately, due to timely treatment, the man is now in good condition.

Many people don’t understand why eating sugar cane and sugar oranges can lead to insanity? What does hyperglycemic hypertonic state mean? Under normal circumstances, the human body has a variety of hormones to regulate the level of blood sugar in the blood. There are many hormones that increase blood sugar levels, but the only hormone that lowers blood sugar is insulin. Insulin lowers blood sugar by stimulating various cells in the body to absorb blood sugar For the normal function of various cells, if the amount of insulin secretion is reduced, many cells will not be able to absorb glucose in the blood, causing it to accumulate in the blood and cause high blood sugar. This is the basic principle of diabetes. Under normal circumstances, when the blood sugar rise is not serious, it will not cause serious symptoms, but if you do not know that you have diabetes and you try to eat foods with high carbohydrate content, it will lead to a sharp rise in blood sugar. The osmotic pressure will be very high, and the high osmotic pressure of the blood will draw water from the tissues and organs, causing dehydration of the brain and causing neurological disorders. Therefore, people with high blood sugar should not overeat, otherwise it may be life-threatening. Like this man, 80% of the time, he already has signs of diabetes in his body, and he desperately eats sweet food, which leads to a nervous disorder.
