Prediabetes is a warning — and a window of opportunity

Being told you have prediabetes can feel alarming, but it's actually one of the best opportunities to change your health trajectory. Research shows that lifestyle changes — especially nutrition — can reduce the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes by up to 58%. The key is acting early with a plan that's realistic and sustainable.

Culturally appropriate meal planning
