[QUOTE="SianR1, post: 2012426, member: 502431"] Hi, this is my first post. I’m 21, have a BMI of 18 and 6 months ago my blood test results came back as prediabetic. HbA1c was 6.1 Rather surprised as I don’t seem to have any other risk factors for diabetes being young and slim. No one in my family is diabetic either. Also, I already followed a lower than average carb diet and rarely eat refined sugar (not for weight loss but in hopes of clearing acne prone skin) I don’t eat as low carb as keto though, roughly 90g of carbs a day on a 2000 calorie diet. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar experience, and what your greatest tips were for lowering HbA1c I was thinking of getting a free diabetes test from Lloyd’s pharmacy, as it’s quite hard to get GP appointments at my local surgery unless urgent [/QUOTE]
