What YOU Need To Know About Prediabetes...
Dear Reader,
Are you listening to the messages your body sends? If your blood sugar rises to the prediabetes range, your body is giving you a warning, loud and clear, that you need to heed.
Doctors and other experts are still debating whether this condition is a disease
or not, but if detected they often prescribe medications and also strongly suggest
you
make
changes in your diet and exercise plans.
An estimated 79 million adults in the U.S. have prediabetes, a condition where blood sugar levels are up slightly but not in the range that qualifies for diabetes. Having prediabetes raises your risk of type 2 diabetes for the next 10 years.
To find out if you have prediabetes you can undergo either a fasting plasma glucose test (FPG), or a two-hour glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Both involve blood samples that are taken after an overnight fast, with the two-hour test including the consumption of a sugary drink and a wait before the blood draw.
The normal fasting blood glucose should be under 100 mg/dl - if your number is in the 100-125 mg/dl range, you're considered prediabetic, two fasting blood glucose numbers at 126 mg/dl or higher signal diabetes itself.
For the glucose tolerance test, the result should be under 140 mg/dl. If you have prediabetes your blood glucose will be in the area of 140 to 199 mg/dl, if your number is 200 mg/dl or above, you're considered diabetic.
Some patients may take the A1C (glycated hemoglobin test) which measures your average blood sugar for the last two to three months. If the levels are from 5.7 to 6.4 you're considered prediabetic.
The trouble with prediabetes is that so few people even know they have it, especially if going to the doctor for regular physicals isn't something you can fit into your hectic schedule. And since there are no symptoms, you'll have no reason to suspect anything is wrong. In fact, according to a CDC study, just 7% of patients have ever been told by their doctor that they have prediabetes.
The thing is, the extra sugar that's part of prediabetes can already be causing problems in some patients. The eyes are experiencing microaneurysms (widening of the blood vessels) that can lead to diabetic retinopathy and permanent vision loss. Others could have protein in the urine, an early sign of kidney damage, that comes from the extra glucose.
This condition also ups your chances for heart disease, the leading cause of death in the U.S. Those who have prediabetes have a 1.5 fold increase in their risk of heart disease compared to healthy people. For those with diabetes, the risk of heart disease is two to four times higher than for non diabetics.
If you have other risk factors for diabetes, prediabetes as you might expect, puts you well on your way. Getting older, a family history, being overweight and inactive and being part of some ethnic groups all contribute to your risk of this disease.
But you can still put a stop to things. If you act right now.

What YOU Need To Know About Prediabetes... Continued...
You need to make the changes to your lifestyle, to what you eat and how active
you are, in order to stop the progression toward dangerous type 2 diabetes, or
delay how soon it comes.
If you drop just 5-7% of your body weight and start
working out 30 minutes each day, five days a week (total 150 minutes/week), research
shows you can bring down the incidence of type 2 diabetes by 58% over three years.
This comes from a landmark study known as the Diabetes Prevention Program.
Eating more fruits and veggies, limiting those tempting saturated and trans fats
(30% or fewer calories from fat, less than 10% of calories from saturated fat)
are smart ways to get started.
To your good health,

P.S: Nike...Ebay...Amazon and Walmart pay for your opinion
Fortune 500 companies make their money by people like you and I buying their products.
But how do they know what we want to buy? Easy they pay to find out the products we like, where we shop and what we buy.
In a nutshell big businesses need people to tell them what products to make.
People like Michelle McAllister - a 34 year old full-time mother of two. Michelle and many others help "big business" make millions, although they haven't got any marketing or sales experience.
In fact Michelle knows absolutely nothing about business, but she does know what she likes...
And that's exactly the information these companies are after and will pay you for.
Click through to discover how Michelle quickly profits by telling big companies her opinion and how you can do it too...
