Being diagnosed with borderline high blood sugar, or prediabetes, is a warning sign but not an irreversible condition. Prediabetes is defined by fasting blood sugar levels between 100\u2013125 mg\/dL or an A1C of 5.7% to 6.4%. Fortunately, many people can reverse it through lifestyle changes. Diet is key\u2014balancing meals with vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats, while avoiding refined carbs and sugars, helps maintain stable glucose levels. Increasing fiber intake and eating low-glycemic foods also support better blood sugar control. Regular hydration, smaller portions, and not skipping meals further improve outcomes.<\/p>\n
Exercise and sleep are also vital. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise weekly, combined with strength training, to enhance insulin sensitivity. Managing stress through activities like yoga or meditation reduces cortisol, which can spike glucose. Getting 7\u20139 hours of quality sleep supports hormonal balance. Tracking your blood sugar helps identify patterns and make informed choices, and some natural supplements like cinnamon and chromium may help (with medical approval). Partnering with a healthcare provider ensures you stay on track and avoid complications. With consistent effort, it\u2019s possible to regain control and prevent type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
