    GlossaryImpaired Glucose Tolerance (Prediabetes)

    condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal

    Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) is a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. It indicates a risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. IGT is often detected through an oral glucose tolerance test, where blood sugar levels are measured before and after consuming a glucose-rich drink.
