To reduce your risk of developing prediabetes, consider the following lifestyle changes:
- Healthy Diet: Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, and vegetables. Limit intake of sugary foods and beverages.
- Regular Exercise: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking or cycling.
- Weight Management: Maintain a healthy weight, as excess body fat, especially around the abdomen, increases the risk of insulin resistance.
- Regular Check-ups: Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly, especially if you have risk factors like a family history of diabetes or obesity.
