Key steps that help most
1. Improve diet quality
• Reduce sugary drinks, refined carbs, and ultra-processed foods
• Eat more vegetables, fiber, healthy fats, eggs, fish, beans, and whole foods
• Balance meals with protein + fiber to avoid big blood-sugar spikes
2. Move your body regularly
• Walking after meals lowers blood sugar
• Strength training builds muscle, which uses glucose better
• Even 10–20 minutes daily helps
3. Reach a healthy body weight (if overweight)
• Losing 5–10% of body weight can significantly improve insulin sensitivity
4. Sleep and stress control
• Poor sleep and chronic stress raise insulin resistance hormones
• Aim for consistent sleep schedule and relaxation habits
5. Medical support when needed
• Doctors may use medications or supplements in some cases
• Blood tests (fasting glucose, A1C, fasting insulin) track progress
✔️ Good news: Many people see improvement within weeks to months once habits change.
The earlier you act, the easier it is to reverse.
