I am a 55 years old Male medium frame and weigh 75 kgs. Recently I saw elevated levels of my Hb1Ac with reading of about 6.5 6 months back to present 6.9. I lead a very active life and did my half marathon recently and quite strict about my dietary habits. I reduced my sugar and carbo intake and taking high amounts of proteins, vegetables, fruits, Millets and Ragi. My Dad was mild diabetic while in job and got over and stopped medication completely as his sugars levels became normal with in few years of his retirement. I lead a peaceful life with normal stress levels. My Doctor says now I am no more a pre diabetic but diabetic and should start medication. All my other parameters are excellent and with in range of a healthy individual. My question is there any way I can manage to get over this condition with further dietary and life style changes.
