People that do not treat prediabetes or have a lifestyle change are likely to develop diabetes a few years down the line.

Avoid refined grains, Starchy vegetables, sweetened yogurts, and so on. Exercise: this will help you lose some weight.

Yes, pre-diabetes can be cured, especially if people would follow the instructions of their nutritionist or their doctor regarding the type of diet and lifestyle changes that they should do — being prediabetic means that your blood sugar levels are higher as compared to the usual, but they are still not very high that you will be considered to have diabetes.

You may be required to take certain medications but mostly to supply your body with the right amount of nutrients. You can alter pre-diabetes slowly and allow your blood sugar levels to become normal again. Those who will not make any changes will most likely develop Diabetes in about five years or so.
