Preparation, prevention: Screening for prediabetes before it gets worse

This Diabetes Awareness Month, we’re committed to helping you gain a better understanding of your health so you can take action. It is estimated that nearly 96 million U.S. adults have prediabetes, and more than 8 in 10 people do not realize they have it. Prediabetes, often reversible with healthy lifestyle changes, can cause health complications if left untreated or unmanaged. It can lead to Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, chronic kidney disease (CKD), colorectal cancer (CRC) and more.
