Twenty-five percent of the population will never get diabetes no matter how many carbohydrates they eat. The rest of us are not so lucky and have to watch out.

Diabetes can sneak up on you without ever giving you any warning at all. You probably heard about the signs to look out for like being thirsty, itching, blurry vision, and all the rest. But what if you are without the common symptoms and would like to know how you stand.

Well you can get a pretty good idea from a simple meal and you will have time to change your lifestyle to most likely never getting diabetes. This test is very accurate and you do it yourself in your own home.

Eat a large pasta meal for lunch on a day that is fairly normal for you. Do not eat anything else for 3 hours. Notice how you feel at the 3 hour mark. Are you sleepy, are your eyes just wanting you to take a nap? If this is the case, then you are genetically at risk of eventually being pre diabetic and getting diabetes.

The good news is that you now know your condition and still have time to do something about it before it gets worse. Let this be your wake up call. Don't wait until high blood sugar starts causing damage to your body.

Get with your doctor and get tested and ask for diet help. Your doctor can lead you in the right direction as far as the necessary tests for future monitoring of your health. Read up on how to prevent diabetes from ever happening to you. The more you know, the better you will be able to lead a normal healthy life.
