According to the CDC, more than 1 in 3 U.S. adults have prediabetes, but the majority of people don\u2019t know they have it.  Prediabetes puts you at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. The good news is that by making healthy lifestyle changes, it is possible to prevent type 2 diabetes and even reverse prediabetes.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about prediabetes and the small steps that can make a big difference in preventing type 2 diabetes: https:\/\/www.niddk.nih.gov\/health-information\/diabetes\/overview\/preventing-type-2-diabetes<\/p>\n<p>Transcript:<\/p>\n<p>Small steps, big difference: preventing diabetes is within your reach. <\/p>\n<p>Prediabetes is a serious health condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not yet high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes.  <\/p>\n<p>More than 1 in 3 U.S. adults have prediabetes. That\u2019s 88 million people. But most don\u2019t know they have it, and there are usually no symptoms. <\/p>\n<p>People with prediabetes have a 50 percent chance of developing diabetes over the next 5 to 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>But making healthy lifestyle changes can make a difference. You can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes, and you can even manage or reverse your prediabetes.   <\/p>\n<p>Try to get at least 30 minutes of physical activity 5 days a week. Start slowly and build up to your goal.  <\/p>\n<p>Consume healthier foods and drinks most of the time. Choose foods that are high in fiber and low in fat and sugar. You can also try smaller portions of food.   <\/p>\n<p>Lose weight, track it, and keep it off. NIH studies show that losing 5 to 7 percent of your weight can help reduce your chance of developing diabetes. <\/p>\n<p>Work with your doctor or health care team to manage your prediabetes and improve your overall health.  <\/p>\n<p>Stay up to date on vaccinations. Vaccines can help you stay healthy. <\/p>\n<p>Healthy lifestyle changes, taken in small steps, can make a big difference. <\/p>\n<p>Preventing diabetes is within your reach.
