Treatment aims at maintaining normal blood sugar levels through regular monitoring, insulin therapy, diet and exercise.
Prediabetes is a condition in which blood sugar is high, but not high enough to be type 2 diabetes. Also called: impaired glucose tolerance. A condition in which blood sugar is high, but not high enough to be type 2 diabetes. Without intervention, it's likely to become type 2 diabetes within 10 years.
