Prediabetes is a wake-up call that you’re at an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and other serious conditions, such as heart disease and stroke. It is like a 'pre-diagnosis' or a warning sign of type 2 diabetes. Commonly, type 2 diabetes patients develop prediabetes first. The condition is characterized by high blood glucose levels which are not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. It occurs as a result of the body's inability to produce or utilize the insulin hormone properly which leads to excessive glucose buildup in the blood. However, the good news is that people with prediabetes can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes by switching to a healthy lifestyle. Eat healthy foods, maintain a healthy body weight and stay physically active to bring your blood glucose level back to normal.

Diagnosis for prediabetes (results indicative of prediabetes are):

A1C: 5.7%–6.4%
Fasting blood sugar: 100–125 mg/dl
OGTT 2 hour blood sugar: 140 mg/dl–199 mg/dl
