AimsLifestyle related noncommunicable health conditions are having an increasingly negative impact on the health. This study aimed to assess the lipid profile, total antioxidant capacity, and the lifestyle predictors of conversion to prediabetes in young Saudis with prediabetes.Materials and methodsOne hundred and twenty-one young Saudis with fasting plasma glucose (<125 mg/dl) enrolled in this study who further categorized into normal glucose tolerance “NGT” group (n = 86) and prediabetes group (IFG; n = 08/IGT; n = 27) based on American Association criteria. Venous blood samples were collected at fasting and 2 h postprandial from participants. Chemistry parameters and total antioxidant status (TAS) were assayed by standard procedures. Questionnaires were applied to collect information including demographic characteristics, physical activity, and family history to diabetes. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 17.ResultsCompared to NGT subjects, the prediabetics characterized by marked obesity (p = .027), visceral obesity (p = .002), dyslipidemia, significantly increased HbA1c (p = .003), reduced TAS (p < .001), more sedentary lifestyle (p = .010). Positive correlations were documented between FPG, 2-h plasma glucose and HbA1c, BMI, WC, TC, LDL cholesterol, TG while negative correlations with HDL cholesterol, TAS.ConclusionThe current study reported that prediabetes condition (in young adult Saudis) was associated with dyslipidemia, reduced total antioxidant status, obesity, central obesity, and physical inactivity compared to those with normoglycemia. Lifestyle modifications (through weight loss, regular physical activity, and healthy diet) should be encouraged especially among young Saudis to prevent the progression to type 2 diabetes and its complications from prediabetes state.
