Reversing prediabetes depends on several factors, including lifestyle changes and individual health conditions. Here are some key steps to help reverse prediabetes:

  • Healthy Diet: Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, and vegetables. Avoid sugary and processed foods.
  • Regular Exercise: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking or cycling.
  • Weight Management: Losing 5-10% of your body weight can significantly improve blood sugar levels.
  • Monitoring: Regularly check your blood sugar levels and follow up with your healthcare provider.

With consistent effort, many people can see improvements in their blood sugar levels within 3 to 6 months. However, individual results may vary, and it's important to work closely with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
