Who is at Risk for Prediabetes and Diabetes?

Currently, 1 in 3 American adults have prediabetes, and more than 80% 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 to find out if you are at risk for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

You Can Prevent Type 2 Diabetes—Get Started Today!

If you have prediabetes or are at risk for prediabetes, a CDC-recognized lifestyle change program is one of the most effective ways to prevent getting type 2 diabetes. It can help you lose weight, become more active, and prevent or delay type 2 diabetes.
