In a healthy person, when glucose in the blood stream rises the cells in the pancreas releases insulin and glucose are absorbed by the cells at the intestine wall then convert to energy or stored as fat in our body. In prediabetics, either the pancreas can't produce enough insulin on demand or the cells do not actively respond to the insulin in the bloodstream.
Depending on the level of glucose in the blood stream, if the fasting blood glucose test shows
1. Glucose level > 126 mg/dl : Diabetics
