Pre-diabetes – Signs of diabetes

What does “Pre-diabetes” results mean?

Pre-diabetes is when blood glucose is higher than normal, but not high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes. At this stage, a fasting blood sugar is >/= 100 but </= 125 mg/dl. This may also be called Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG). If blood glucose is >/= 140 but </= 200 mg/dl 2 hours after a meal, this is called Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT). Pre-diabetes can be serious and needs to be treated. This usually means adjustments in meal planning, exercise, and stress management. Lifestyle changes are usually sufficient to prevent or delay a diagnosis of diabetes and the need for diabetes medication.
