Diabetics lose weight as there is no insulin available to move glucose into the body's cells, glucose builds up in the bloodstream. The kidneys then work to remove this unused sugar through urination. The sugar is not used as energy, so the body starts burning fat and muscle for energy, resulting in weight loss
You must lower sugar intake and regularly exercise to reverse prediabetes.
Prediabetes can be managed by eating low carbs and high proteins. Along with food an active lifestyle can not only help manage but also help reverse this condition.
