What to do
-
Get tested : Fasting blood glucose and HbA1c reveal prediabetes and early-stage diabetes.
-
Limit refined sugars and high glycemic carbohydrates.
-
Exercise regularly – both strength training and cardio improve insulin sensitivity.
-
Manage stress : High cortisol levels also increase blood sugar.
-
Get enough sleep – poor sleep is directly linked to increased insulin resistance.
