You have pre-diabetes but what does that really mean and what will you do about it?
For some, it feels underwhelming: the seriousness doesn’t quite sink in. After all, plenty of people have Type 2, and there are drugs to manage it… right?
For others, it’s overwhelming: a flood of information, medical jargon and often gentle warnings that it’s serious — yet at the same time, you’re left unsure, confused, and uncertain what real, effective next steps look like.
Whichever feeling you might experience, after the initial diagnosis it’s easy to get lost in medical jargon and conflicting advice—especially advice on social media. Feeling unsure and somewhat confused is normal as is the desire for clarity in the best way to manage this problem. This site is here to cut through the noise, bring clarity and awareness to Type 2 management, giving you a practical head-start on your journey to better health.
For many if not most, time can pass without addressing the root causes of Type 2 but when the focus shifts to understanding and working on the underlying issues, the journey can become an exciting and motivating process. With the right approach, diabetes can be brought into remission, medications reduced or no longer needed, and a sense of control and well-being restored.
This site was created to share the kind of information* and insights that are often missing at the start of the journey, and to provide a place for people to share their own experiences. The aim is simple: to help make the path to better health clearer, easier, and faster for anyone living with Type 2.
