Prediabetes Management

Meaning

Prediabetes management is the critical clinical strategy focused on aggressively preventing the progression from the intermediate metabolic states of impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose to overt Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This proactive intervention mandates a structured program of intensive lifestyle modifications, comprehensive nutritional counseling, and in select cases, pharmacotherapy, all aimed at restoring normal glucose homeostasis and profoundly improving systemic insulin sensitivity. The core objective is to normalize blood glucose regulation and significantly reduce the long-term risk of both microvascular and macrovascular complications.
