Research-backed program making big strides in preventing type 2 diabetes - Diabetes Canada
By 2018, Lois Hourston of Kelowna, B.C., had been living with good intentions for more than 10 years. Lois kept putting her health on the back burner, telling herself she’d get around to making positive changes soon. But her wake-up call came when her doctor told her she had surpassed the 200-pound mark and diagnosed her with prediabetes. Almost six million Canadians are at risk of developing diabetes, which refers to blood glucose (sugar) levels that are higher than normal and which elevate the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. As many as 40% of people with prediabetes progress to type 2 diabetes within five years.
