Pre-Diabetes is the Silent Death Trap: How to Spot and Combat It | Ep 6

Time to Transform with Dr Deepa Grandon

When it comes to metabolic health, high blood sugar isn’t the only cause for concern. If your blood sugar is in between normal and diabetic, you’re prediabetic and at risk for heart attacks and other challenges.

Prediabetes doesn’t have overt symptoms, so it’s really easy for it to be missed. That’s what makes it so dangerous. Unless you’re intentional and vigilant about checking for it, the condition can fly under the radar of your health.

What causes prediabetes? Can we stop prediabetes from becoming diabetes? In this episode, I talk about how to combat a condition a lot of people don’t know they have.

One of the problems with prediabetes is that it has no symptoms. Unless you or your healthcare provider go the extra mile to identify it, it can be easily missed. -Dr. Deepa Grandon
