Prediabetic diet.: The diet for prediabetes includes fiber (35 grams daily for females, 50 grams for men). Smaller more frequent meals is the rule as well. Eat five or six times daily, dividing the fiber amongst the meals evenly. Low fat, low cholesterol, rich in fruits and vegetables and lean protein sources. Supplementing cinnamon and chromium could help control the bloody sugars, too.

This is serious: There is no magic food or list of special foods that will rescue you from diabetes if this is really what is going on. Ask about fitness training and perhaps medication as your workup proceeds. Educate yourself on this focusing on real science rather than "pop" claims about food choices. Be smart and best wishes
