[quote=Anonymous]Intermittent fasting is gives insulin time to fall and stay low, helps the body re-sensitize, much like dry January. It also helps regulate hunger and satiety hormones, making diet changes easier. I have PCOS and was just under prediabetes and was able to improve my health significantly with IF.

A CGM is a great way to get data on how different foods, exercise, sleep impact your blood glucose in your particular body. I paid for one for 2 weeks, with pre-diabetes your insurance will likely cover.

Dr. Jason Fung has some good videos and his team does The Fasting Method Podcast, I learned a lot and found it a good support to stay the course. I used to be a grazer or would sip flavored milky coffee all day. Now I keep everything flavored to spaced mealtimes.

Good luck, OP. The connection between diabetes before 60 and risk of Alzheimer's was very motivating to me to change my relationship with food, I was using sugar as a pick me up, treat/reward, etc. I was not overweight so the numbers ticking up were a needed wake up moment. [/quote]
