DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAM

If you’re at risk for type 2 diabetes, you can make small, measurable changes that can reduce your risk and help you live a happier, healthier life.  Change is tough, but we can help.  The YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention program gives you the skills you need and the support you deserve to make lasting healthy lifestyle changes.

WHAT IS PREDIABETES?

Prediabetes occurs when blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough for a type 2 diagnosis.  Risk for developing type 2 diabetes may be reduced or eliminated by weight loss, healthier eating and increased physical activity.
