blood glucose, is the usable form of energy our body makes out of the food we eat.

In those with throw in 1 diabetes, the body is genetically unable to produce insulin.

(Hence, why people with prediabetes are often referred to as “insulin resistant.”

Among those with prediabetes, however, there are often no symptoms at all.

So what is “normal” blood sugar?

(Ourprediabetes diet plan for beginnersis a great place to start.)

“Hands down the most important thing is nutrition.

“Physical activity can help a person go into remission for prediabetes.

Research has shown that wheninsulin levels are elevated, we might gain weight more easily.

“The more muscle groups we target, the more glucose we use as a fuel source.

“Start with simple resistance training exercises to target your upper and lower body.”

Plus you could start increasing your weights once the ones you’re using begin to feel easy.

Andjogging, or even jogging intervals, are excellent options when you’re seeking a do-anywhere option.
