A program of weight loss and exercise is recommended for a patient with impaired fasting glucose (IFG). When teaching the patient about the reason for these lifestyle changes, the nurse will tell the patient that
a.   the high insulin levels associated with this syndrome damage the lining of blood vessels, leading to vascular disease.
b.   although the fasting plasma glucose levels do not currently indicate diabetes, the glycosylated hemoglobin will be elevated.
c.   the liver is producing excessive glucose, which will eventually exhaust the ability of the pancreas to produce insulin, and exercise will normalize glucose production.
d.   the onset of diabetes and the associated cardiovascular risks can be delayed or prevented by weight loss and exercise.
