Learn more about the nation’s first prediabetes awareness campaign.
The Do I Have Prediabetes? campaign, developed by CDC, AMA, and Ad Council, reaches American adults who are at risk for prediabetes. The campaign empowers adults to know their prediabetes risk and take action.
Research shows that once people are made aware of their condition, they are more likely to make the necessary long-term lifestyle changes, such as eating healthier, managing weight, and being active, which can help prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes. Take the 1-minute risk test to learn if you’re at high risk for prediabetes.
