Did you know that more than 1 in 3 adults in the U.S. has prediabetes—and most of them don’t even know it?
Prediabetes is your body’s way of waving a red flag. It means your blood sugar levels are elevated, but not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes, yet.
The silver lining? Prediabetes is reversible. With the right habits and awareness, you can take back control and avoid more serious health complications down the line.
What Is Prediabetes?
Prediabetes occurs when your body starts to struggle with insulin. Either your body is not making enough, or your cells have become resistant to it. This causes glucose to stay in your bloodstream instead of being used for energy.
If left unmanaged, prediabetes can progress to type 2 diabetes, which comes with increased risk of heart disease, nerve damage, and more.
Common Risk Factors
Some people are genetically predisposed, but lifestyle plays a huge role. Risk factors include:
-
Being overweight, especially around the belly
-
Lack of physical activity
-
Poor diet (high in sugar and refined carbs)
-
Age 45+
-
Family history of diabetes
-
Sleep apnea or poor sleep quality
Warning Signs to Watch
Unfortunately, prediabetes often has no obvious symptoms. But some subtle signs include:
-
Feeling unusually tired
-
Increased thirst or urination
-
Blurry vision
-
Slow healing of cuts or infections
-
Dark patches of skin around the neck or armpits
How to Reverse Prediabetes Naturally
Here’s where small, consistent actions make a big difference:
-
Get moving: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity per week (walking counts!)
-
Clean up your diet: Focus on whole foods, vegetables, fiber, lean proteins, and healthy fats
-
Lose 5–7% of your body weight: Even modest weight loss significantly improves insulin sensitivity
-
Cut back on sugar and ultra-processed foods
-
Prioritize quality sleep and stress management
Track and Test
Consult your physician for an A1C blood test if you think you’re at risk. Tracking your blood sugar, weight, and habits over time can help you stay accountable and see your progress.
