In a recent article, Dr Cederquist, founder of Bistro MD wrote, “There’s no time like this month (November) to start living healthy.

Dr Cederquist goes on this article to state that “Reversing Pre-Diabetes Could Save 57 Million Lives” 

In the article she states that,

 ”While it’s commonly known that exercise and weight loss can lower risk, the numbers are still astounding. “Getting in half an hour of moderate physical activity a few days a week, as well as reducing body weight by 5-10%, can cut your risk of developing diabetes by a whopping 58%.” 

Dr. Cederquist also states that,

“Getting in half an hour of moderate physical activity a few days a week, as well as reducing body weight by 5-10%, can cut your risk of developing diabetes by a whopping 58%. Research indicates that the body absorbs carbohydrates from different foods at varying rates, leading to diverse effects on levels of blood glucose and insulin. Simple carbohydrate foods–such as white rice, white bread, and refined sugar–score high on the glycemic index. These foods cause a rapid spike and then a drop in blood glucose. High-fiber foods –like the complex carbohydrates found in whole grains–are lower on the glycemic index and have a more gradual effect on blood sugar and insulin because high-glycemic index foods abruptly and significantly increase blood glucose levels, they increase the body’s demand for insulin”.
