Description
Prediabetes is a common but often overlooked condition where blood sugar levels are elevated — not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes, but still a serious red flag. Many people are in this stage without even knowing it.
If left unmanaged, prediabetes significantly increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. The good news? With early action, it’s entirely reversible.
What Causes Prediabetes — and Are There Symptoms?
Key risk factors include:
- Excess weight, especially around the abdomen
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Family history of diabetes
- High blood pressure or high cholesterol
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women
While prediabetes is usually symptom-free, some people may experience signs such as chronic fatigue, increased hunger or thirst, or darkened skin patches around the neck or underarms.
Can Type 2 Diabetes Be Prevented?
Absolutely. Prediabetes can be reversed with the right lifestyle adjustments:
- Reducing sugar, refined carbs, and trans fats in the diet
- Losing 5–7% of body weight
- Engaging in at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week
- Managing stress and getting enough sleep
- Regular monitoring through HbA1c and FBS blood tests
- In some cases, preventive medication as advised by a doctor
