If you have a pre-
diabetesHbA1c of 5.9, your main goal should be to prevent progression to type 2 diabetes. While getting your HbA1c to normal levels might be difficult, focus on prevention. If you are overweight, losing weight is crucial. Adopt a healthy lifestyle with 30 minutes of daily physical activity, and reduce refined carbohydrates, processed foods, and high-calorie, high-fat foods. Chasing HbA1c numbers alone isn't the solution.
