A low carbohydrate diet could help you. Have a look at the dietdoctor.com site. There is at least one Gransnetter who successfully controls her pre-diabetes this way.

At my last blood test check up I was surprised to learn that my glucose is borderline. This despite eating a healthy diet, no sweet stuff, no smoking, walk every day. The nurse put it down to age (70) Being a vegetarian I do rely a lot on carbohydrates (mainly pasta, potatoes, rice) which I didn't think they would put your blood sugar up. I have noticed feeling rather weak before food and bloated after. I also have high bp. Any experience or suggestions?
