Answer:
b. False
Step-by-step explanation:
Pre-diabetes is the clinical situation that precedes the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. At this point, the body begins to show signs, mainly through blood tests, that sugar (blood glucose) levels are starting to get high, and insulin levels too. Pre-diabetes is well known for its state of insulin resistance, when the pancreas starts producing too much insulin in an attempt to control sugar levels. The patient who has pre-diabetes cannot be diagnosed with the disease, because being pre-diabetic does not mean being diabetic, but it does mean that there is a great chance that in the future (perhaps near) this patient will develop the metabolic disease.
