Lifestyle Changes May Help Prevent Multimorbidity In Prediabetes

18 Jun 20264 min read0 viewsVerified Feed

GIST (Key Takeaways)

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 2 in 5 adults in the United States have prediabetes , a condition where blood glucose levels are higher than they should be, but not as high as in type 2 diabetes . Risk factors for developing prediabetes include having overweight or obesity, being at least 45 years old, having a close relative with type 2 diabetes, having ever had gestational (pregnancy) diabetes, or given birth to a baby weighing more than 9lbs (4kg).
People with prediabetes are at risk of developing a number of chronic health conditions, as well as progressing to type 2 diabetes, and often end up with multimorbidity — having 2 or more chronic conditions. A number of lifestyle changes, including losing weight, being more physically active, and adopting a healthier diet, can help prevent this.
If these changes do not lower blood glucose, clinicians may prescribe the type 2 diabetes drug metformin .
