This week we are talking about prediabetes in teens. There is so much to cover on this topic including what it is prediabetes and what is happening in the body when we develop prediabetes. We also talk about some of the typical lifestyle changes that Jen suggests to clients to help them manage and improve their health when they are living with prediabetes.
