More than one in three adults in the United States has prediabetes, a condition characterized by higher-than-normal blood sugar levels that can escalate into diabetes.
Dr. Elizabeth Halprin emphasizes the importance of early intervention: 'You don't want to wait until you have prediabetes or diabetes to start thinking about it, you want to think about it to prevent it.'
Your body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose, which is absorbed into the bloodstream and serves as the primary source of energy, regulated by insulin from the pancreas.
Too much sugar in the bloodstream can lead to serious health complications including eye problems, heart disease, stroke, and nerve damage.
