Understanding Prediabetes with Dr Sonali

In this episode, we continue our discussion on diabetes with Dr Sonali.

Dr Dasgupta explains the concept of prediabetes, a condition identified through a simple blood test called HbA1c. She discusses how prediabetes is the stage where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not yet high enough to be classified as diabetes.

Dr. Dasgupta emphasises the importance of regular monitoring and lifestyle changes, such as improved diet and increased physical activity, to manage and potentially reverse prediabetes. She highlights the growing prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes in younger populations, attributing this trend to modern sedentary lifestyles and diets high in processed foods.
