Question: I was told by my doctor I’m pre diabetic. Is that a lifelong thing or can I cure it with exercise and diet?
Brief Answer:
Not cure, but keep sugar levels in control
Detailed Answer:
Hi I have gone through your query and understood your concerns.
Good diet and exercise definitely help in delaying diabetes. You may not prevent diabetes in later life. but as of now you can keep sugar levels in control and delay diabetes. The time of delay depends on individual.
As of now exercise is a good choice to prevent diabetes. Have sugar levels checked every two months.
