At least 86 million Americans have prediabetes and most of them don’t know it. About 30% will go on to get diabetes. While diabetes is unavoidable for some people, it is possible for many people to reduce their risk for developing type 2 diabetes.

The Centers for Disease Control and diabetes health professionals discuss the importance of getting screened for prediabetes and knowing your risk for diabetes. If you do have prediabetes, there are steps you can take to potentially lower your risk for diabetes, such as being active and making healthy food choices.
