A glass of water might tell you if you've got a serious health issue...
The first sip of water you take while feeling parched can be refreshing and indescribably delicious in its own way. But if you suddenly notice that glass of pure water you poured yourself from the tap or a fresh bottle tastes sweet, it could be a warning sign of diabetes.
. When left untreated, the disease can cause high sugar levels in the blood, which can produce a sweet taste in your mouth that you may first notice while taking a sip of water.At a certain point, diabetes may also cause a related complication known as diabetic ketoacidosis.
