I would suggest doing so, yes. Sugar is taboo when you are pre-diabetic. I recommend cutting out all “white” foods, i.e., white rice, white bread, potatoes and corn. Switch to brown rice (which is pretty tasty), wheat or multigrain bread. Stay away from sodas and drink plenty of water.

Wouldn’t hurt to incorporate exercise in your daily living.

Most likely he will have to be beaten over the head with effects of not following a good food plan and taking care of himself. Most men are this way. Sorry to say that, but it is true!

You can do the most by changing how you eat and only purchase those foods. I recommend the South Beach phase 2 as a very easy plan to follow for meal planning. Good fruits, veggies, meats, things that are good for anyone!

The American Diabetic Assn’s idea of a proper diet is just smaller servings of the old Food Pyramid, which doesn’t work for most people.

Lead the horse to water by example! You cannot make him drink, but you can set the example by never preparing foods he shouldn’t eat.
