About Prediabetes and Type 2 Diabetes

There are about 98 million American adults who have prediabetes – that’s 1 in 3 adults! Of those 98 million, more than 8 in 10 of them don’t even know they have it. Without taking action, many people with prediabetes could develop type 2 diabetes within 5 years.

With numbers like that, it’s important to learn about prediabetes and take action.

Take the CDC online Test Here!

It only takes a couple of minutres for you to know your risk.
