Age at Type 2 Diabetes diagnosis and life expectancy

Page may contain affiliate links. Please see terms for details.
I've just been diagnosed as having non diabetic hyperglycemia basically pre diabetese, I'm looking forward to having the chat about losing weight, regular exercise and a healthy diet considering that I had my fourth heart attack in twent years at the end of August, I'm not overweight and I have obviously tried to eat a healthy diet since my first two heart attacks in 2003 plus I'm still doing 100 miles a week on the turbo (My wife won't let me play out :sad:) though at a reduced output until the specialist decides what his plan of action is going to be.

My Dad had type 2 diabetes diagnosed in his 30's, he wasn't that over weight either, he didn't stick to any strict diabetes diet and he lived until he was 79. He eventually needed daily injections to control his sugar levels.

With a healthier lifestyle he probably could have lived much longer and with better health.
