Prediabetes is the period before diabetes is diagnosed where blood sugar levels are high but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. Fortunately, progressing from prediabetes to diabetes is not inevitable. There are many actions you can take to reduce the risk of diabetes.

Start with these 6 tips:​

  1. Cut sugar and refined carbohydrates from your diet. Eating foods high in refined carbohydrates and sugar increases blood sugar and insulin levels, which may lead to diabetes over time. Examples of refined carbohydrates include white bread, potatoes and many breakfast cereals. Instead, limit sugar and choose complex carbohydrates such as vegetables, oatmeal and whole grains.
  2. Quit smoking if you are a current tobacco user. Smoking can contribute to insulin resistance, which can lead to type 2 diabetes. Quitting has been shown to reduce this risk of type 2 diabetes over time.
  3. Watch your portions. Avoiding large portion sizes can help reduce insulin and blood sugar levels and decrease the risk of diabetes. Eating too much food at one time has been shown to cause higher blood sugar and insulin levels in people at risk of diabetes.
  4. Aim for 30. Try to be intentionally active by taking a walk, dancing, lifting weights or swimming for 30 minutes, five days per week. If you get no or very little physical activity—and you sit during most of your day—then you lead a sedentary lifestyle, and it's time to get moving.
  5. Drink water. Drinking water instead of other beverages may help control blood sugar and insulin levels, thereby reducing the risk of diabetes. Sticking with water most of the time helps you avoid beverages that are high in sugar, preservatives and other unneeded ingredients.
  6. Eat fiber. Getting plenty of fiber is beneficial for gut health and weight management. Consuming a good fiber source at each meal can help prevent spikes in blood sugar and insulin levels, which may help reduce your risk of developing diabetes

Diabetes is a serious health issue everyone never liked. In order to avoid it, it's simply taking precautions, the steps to prevent diabetes you listed see simply options for it's prevention, because it is better off that way than seeking for cure. Lots of people today, we are suffering from diabetes are suffering heavily from it, some have seen their legs choke off due to diabetes. Too much sugary substances is notably the contributing factor to diabetes.

When everything we eat is full of sugar contents, it simply gives the insulin more job to do, in order to filter the sugar toxics. But, when it becomes excessive in some point later in our career, it simply become a major issue for the the insulin to filter and as such it becomes excessive sugar contents in our body. Almost everything we consume as food is made up of sugar, when we load more of the sugars it becomes a problem that leads to diabetes. Some alcohol substances we see today, also has sugar contains.

That's why excessive in-take of alcohol isn't medicinal to our well-being, rather injurious to it. The best is always be watchful of what we eat, go for check up when necessary.
