Pre-Diabetes

Before  type 2 diabetes is fully developed a condition called "pre-diabetes" is seen where blood glucose levels are elevated but not to the extent associated with diabetes.  

Information on Pre-diabetes can be found at the following link: "The Prevention or Delay of Type 2 Diabetes" which gives the position statement issued jointly by the American Diabetes Association and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
