You can feel like a million bucks and still have a serious health condition called prediabetes. According to the Centers for Disease Control, one out of three adults in the United States has prediabetes. That's 83 million people. Are you one of them? The good news is that you are not diabetic -- yet. You can get a simple blood sugar test to find out whether you have prediabetes. Ask your doctor. If you are over 45, not exercising much, and are overweight, the chances are high that prediabetes exists or is creeping up on you. Diabetes is a chronic health condition, and research shows that its health consequences can shorten your life, on average, 10 years. Don't wait until you have a health condition associated with type 2 diabetes, because by they it is a far more serious situation.
