PREDIABETES CAN BE SILENT

Prediabetes means your blood sugar is higher than normal but not yet in the diabetes range. Many people have no symptoms, so a blood test may be the only way to detect it.

The good news is that early action can help prevent or delay type 2 diabetes. Eat balanced, high-fiber meals, exercise regularly, manage your weight, sleep well and attend regular checkups.

Know your numbers and act early. 🩸💙

High cortisol over time can affect your weight, skin, muscles, blood pressure, blood sugar and mood.

Possible causes include long-term corticosteroid use or a problem involving the adrenal or pituitary glands. These signs can have many causes, so proper medical testing is important.

⚠️ Never suddenly stop a prescribed steroid. Speak with your healthcare professional about safe next steps.

⚠️ Supplements are not automatically safe for everyone.

High-dose vitamin C, creatine, detox teas, collagen and calcium may affect the kidneys differently depending on the dose, your medications and your kidney function. If you have kidney disease or recurring kidney stones, speak with your healthcare provider before using them.

Always check before you supplement. Please save and share!

Diabetes management involves more than food and A1C. Stress, sleep, portion size, meal timing and physical activity can all affect your blood sugar—and high readings may occur without obvious symptoms.

Know your numbers, understand your patterns and follow a care plan designed for you. Which fact surprised you most?
