CHANTILLY, Va. - Nov. 21, 2013 - PRLog -- Chantilly, VA 20152 – “Many of the precursors to full-blown Type II diabetes can be stopped in their tracks with appropriate lifestyle changes,” said Joe Mahoney, president of Capital Hot Tubs.

“In order to use those methods of prevention, it is important for people to understand pre-diabetes and how it leads to diabetes itself,” continued Mahoney. Here are three tips to fight pre-diabetes.

Know the Signs - The biggest piece of the puzzle when fighting pre-diabetes is information. While most people have heard about diabetes and its dangers, far fewer understand the early symptoms leading to it and how they can be stopped and even reversed. The American Diabetes Association supports American Diabetes Month in an effort to help people learn more about the disease and how to stop early signs from becoming a serious health problem.

People need to look at their diabetes risks even if they have not been diagnosed with the disease, or if they think they are not at risk. Having parents or siblings with diabetes immediately puts a flag on their own health. Additionally, some ethnic backgrounds are predisposed to diabetes. People of African, Hispanic, Indian, Asian or Pacific Islander descent means that greater attention should be paid to daily care in preventing diabetes, and regular testing to catch any symptoms early.

Being overweight or more than 45 years old are also risk factors that are well-known for leading to diabetes, as is a sedentary lifestyle. However, even more than knowing the risk factors, there are specific symptoms that people can be on the lookout for to warn of impending illness. Having unusual thirst or weight loss without dieting, fatigue or unusual weakness, blurred vision or infections of the skin or gums are also warning signs. Excessive urination, tingling in feet or hands, and minor injuries that take a long time to heal should also illicit a trip to the doctor.

Get Support - Always seek the advice of a physician when risk factors or symptoms of pre-diabetes are present. Having a good outside support system is also a big step to fighting the effects of the disease. Family and friends who are supportive are a good first step, but looking for diabetes specific support groups where people can share their methods, successes and even failures is a big advantage.

Use Hydrotherapy to Fight Stress - Diet and exercise are the most common methods of fighting pre-diabetes and diabetes itself. However, there is a hidden enemy too. It fights from within a patient’s very body. Stress is a big issue for those with risk factors for diabetes. Exercise can also be an issue for some people with pre-diabetes since excessive weight can make it difficult and even dangerous to engage in strenuous activities.

A solution for both stress and the inability to exercise is a hot tub. Hot tubs provide a soothing atmosphere that is known to reduce daily stress that can help defeat its effects on diabetes. The hot water also raises the heart rate which has been shown in studies to produce the equivalent results of light exercise and increases metabolism, which is important for anyone with pre-diabetes or diabetes. Dr. Bruce Becker, M.D. of the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Washington states that his studies have shown that just sitting in the hot water of a hot tub improves cardiovascular health.
