Reversing Prediabetes Cuts Heart Attack Risk by 60%

A new study found that people with prediabetes who manage to get their blood sugar levels back to normal can greatly reduce their risk of serious heart problems.

The study showed that these people have a 58% lower chance of having a heart attack or being hospitalized for heart failure.

This good effect lasts for many years.

The researchers say that just making lifestyle changes like exercising more and eating healthier might not be enough to protect the heart.

Instead, actually reversing prediabetes seems to be the key to reducing heart risks.

This is important because it shows that fixing prediabetes could be as important as other things like lowering blood pressure or quitting smoking to keep hearts healthy.
