Prediabetes Result
Key Information
- A Crucial Opportunity: Prediabetes means your blood sugar is higher than normal, but not yet in the Type 2 Diabetes range. It is a warning sign that can often be reversed.
- Healthy Eating: Focus on smart swaps rather than strict punishment. Reduce ultra-processed foods and refined carbohydrates, and choose more whole grains, vegetables, and lean proteins.
- Exercise: Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity each week, such as a 30-minute brisk walk on 5 days of the week. A good guide is that you can still talk, but not sing.
- Weight Management: If you are carrying extra weight, losing just 5% of your body weight can make a major difference.
What Happens Next?
We will plan to repeat your blood tests in a few months to monitor your progress.
In the meantime, the power to improve your health is in your hands.
