Don’t Let Branding Fool You: Pre-Diabetes is Already Late

….to a diagnosis of Diabetes.

I don’t mean to sound alarmist, but this is like saying your smoke alarm is sounding but until the fire truck shows up there is nothing to be concerned about. Preventative Medicine is inherent in Functional and Integrative Medicine, and therefore we think of those changes as a huge opportunity to protect your vitality.

Changes in your blood sugar that typically happen when you’re Prediabetic exist for up to 10 years before you are diagnosed with Diabetes. These changes are a communication that your body is moving in the wrong direction. And, studies show that you are already loosing B cell function (the part of the pancreas that makes insulin), developing insulin resistance, and starting to have elevation in your post meal glucose levels when you are prediabetic. Why is this so troubling to me?

Blood Sugar Dysregulation is negatively connected to every top chronic health condition : Cardiovascular disease, Diabetes, Hormone Imbalances, Obesity, Autoimmunity. Meaning it both drives them, and worsens their course. And MOST IMPORTANTLY Prediabetes is a completely reversible state and therefore we have the power to literally stop these more advanced disease states!

Now you get why I’m activated, right? What questions do you have?
