🥄 Think your “normal” blood sugar today means you're in the clear?
Think again.

📊 Research shows even people with normal readings can be developing insulin resistance under the radar.
➡️ Over 1 in 3 U.S. adults already have prediabetes—and many don’t know it.

It’s not about today’s number. It’s about long-term patterns.
Start early. Stay aware.
