3. Polyphagia
Another symptom of polyuria can be increased appetite. The worrying thing about this symptom is that increased appetite can be a red flag, a warning sign and a tell-tale indicator symptom of the presence of diabetes, and so this needs to be monitored carefully.
The lack of water in the body due to the frequent urination is also a lack of water provided by food sources. There are so many foods that we regularly eat that are made up mostly of water. Cucumbers, for instance, are about 90% water in terms of their make up and so the amount of water that we get from our food shouldn’t be overlooked.
The fact that the water and nutrients are being drained from the body results in an increased appetite. An increased appetite can lead to other problems developing as well, such as diabetes as mentioned previously. In the human body, every cause has an effect and so it isn’t hard to see how symptoms like this can be so problematic for people to deal with.
