Pre-diaetic Indicators
Two Setups...
The two main conditions that preclude the slip to Pre-Diabetic condition are; Hypoglycemia and Insulin Resistance. The main indicator that you are in one of these states is:
Insatiable Appetite
You are either not full after a meal or you are craving sweets as the fuel absorption is being blocked. This set up a starvation mode inside the cell. Now this gets to be a viscous cycle as the starving cells call on the pancreas to develop even more insulin.
Now it can take many years in this pre-diabetic condition before the slip into diabetes. So this in turn will not show on blood tests readily. Not only that but it has to be advanced to be able to detect. Also as many people are in this condition and we are used to seeing people gain a lot of weight we sort place it out of mind.
Other signs
- Increased Thirst
- Constant Fatigue
- Shakey and Hungry
- Moody and Grumpy
- Wound heal slowly
- Increased Urinary and Yeast infection
As it escalates even more to type 2 diabetes:
- Blurred Vision
- Tingling in hands and feet
- Blood Pressure Issues
- Poor Heart Health
So it definitely seems like something to work against earlyon when you first see the issue possibly developing.
Just a heads up... If this is allowed to continue the individual can slip into type 2 diabetes.
One Idea is Change Your Diet
As example if you consume more fat (as it does not increase insulin), but satisfies you at the same time. Over time the body will normalize. Get more active and get serious about your own health!
Not a quick Fix
This will not happen over night and patience will be needed. Now this is by no means advice, just research and experimentation in the process.
I know I am banging the sugar drum of late, but it is a stealth disease that left unchecked can develop into major health issues.

More fat without reducing on the sugars, wheats and starches will just result in getting fatter.
It's a condition of being insulinemic that the body will store the fats that you eat. Without lowering the high input of carbohydrates and reducing the amount of insulin in your blood, you're basically paving the way to death's door.
Diabetes and high blood sugar isn't the problem however.
Hyperinsulinemia (the condition of insulinemic all the time) is the root cause of diabetes and so many other problems. That's why treating high blood sugar with insulin never eventuates in a better outcome for the patient.
Hey, but at least you've got low blood sugar, right? So there's that. Yay, you! And you're doctor can pat him/herself on the back. Job well done doc, sure, your patient is dead, but they died with low BG levels. Good work!
Studies have shown that it's often times actually a far far worse outcome, much sooner than if you'd just let the high blood sugar run amok. Many published studies that they've not even bothered to refute, they're just ignoring them.

Yeah, I was just saying that the increase in fats while insulinemic isn't a great idea. It causes the problem to exacerbate. High Carb, High Fat doesn't work. You need to reduce carbs, whilst increasing fats.
