Pre-Diabetes: What is it & How can you know if you have it? | Dr Rahul Agarwal | CARE Hospitals
Pre-diabetes is a stage before diabetes. Dr. Rahul Agarwal, senior consultant in general medicine at CARE Hospitals in HITEC City, discusses it more. He adds that if your standing blood pressure is greater than 100 but less than 125 or if your post-meal sugar is more than 140 but less than 200, and if your HbA1c is more than 5.7 but less than 6.5, you fall under the pre-diabetic category. He further talks about how it is similar to diabetes and how it can impact your heart health.
