Pre-diabetes is a term used to distinguish people who have higher than normal blood glucose levels, but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. Progression to diabetes among those with pre-diabetes is not inevitable. Studies suggest weight loss (even just 5%) and increased physical activity among people with pre-diabetes prevents or delays diabetes and may return blood glucose levels to normal.
If you are overweight, physically inactive, and have a family history of diabetes, you may be at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
