See Below: Although you are at risk of developing diabetes, there are things you can do lower the risk such as eating healthy foods and engaging in physical activity. Consuming foods lower in sugar and higher in fiber may help as well. At least one prescription drug (metformin) may also help lower the likelihood of developing diabetes - if you and your doctor decide it’s right for you.
