Over time, chronic insulin resistance can lead to prediabetes and then Type 2 diabetes if it's not treated or able to be treated. Prediabetes happens when your blood glucose levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.
People with diabetes are more likely to suffer from heart disease because over time, high blood sugar can damage blood vessels and the nerves that control your heart.
Both the conditions have the same complications. While type 2 diabetes is mainly caused due to lifestyle problems. Type1 diabetes is inherited. To know whether you have type 1 or type 2 consult with an expert endocrinologist
A fasting blood sugar level of 99 mg/dL or lower is normal, 100 to 125 mg/dL indicates you have prediabetes, and 126 mg/dL or higher indicates you have diabetes
Few reasons why people cannot manage blood glucose well are their eating habits and sedentary lifestyle which worsens diabetes. Other major reason are not taking medications on time.
