Pre-diabetic nutrient targets

Pat_Godfrey_1957

I’ve recently been diagnosed pre-diabetic. My numbers are very high in the range and I need to get them down. I don’t know what my nutrition targets should be. Are there guidelines in Cronometer? And how do I set them once I find them?

I don't know if this will be of help or not. I was also recently diagnosed as pre-diabetic. I was also diagnosed with a candida gut infection. Both doctors provided recommended diets for each -- and there was little in common. For example, one diet said no dairy, the other permitted it! After some research, I opted to try Keto and I've been on it about 2 months now. After 1 month on Keto, my A1C tests showed sufficient improvement that my doctor recommended I continue. What I don't know, though, if it's helped with the infection ... but that's another problem for another day.

I've looked into this since Im pre-diabetic. Keto seems the easiest way to go. It was developed by doctors before insulin injections were available, so it does have a medical application.
