Many people will have been worried by scary headlines last week suggesting one in three of us is pre-diabetic.
According to a British Medical Journal report, a third of Britons are on the brink of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and potentially wiping years off their lives.
Don’t panic!
As an expert who has spent 20 years studying the condition I know you either have the disease or you don’t.
This notion of pre-diabetes is confusing and unhelpful when the disease is now so common.
To aid understanding of this crisis, we need clear facts.
