Prediabetes may be far more common than most of us realize.
According to the CDC, more than 115 million American adults — more than 2 in 5 — have prediabetes. Even more surprising, about 8 in 10 adults with prediabetes don’t know they have it.
Why?
Prediabetes can exist for years without obvious symptoms. Blood sugar is higher than normal, but not yet high enough to meet the definition of type 2 diabetes. Meanwhile, the condition is associated with increased risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
In this episode, I talk about why those numbers should get our attention, why my own prediabetes blood work became a wake-up call, and why understanding what we eat may be one of the most practical places to start.
This isn’t about becoming afraid of food.
It’s about becoming aware.
Know what you’re eating. Know your numbers. Ask questions. And don’t assume everything is fine simply because you feel fine.
Know what’s in your food. Know before you go.
