The sooner you know if you’re at risk for diabetes, the sooner you can take steps to prevent it. If you have a family history of diabetes, are overweight or are not physically active, you have a greater chance of developing type 2 diabetes. You are also more likely to develop type 2 diabetes as you get older. All adults age 35 or older should get tested for diabetes and prediabetes.
Here’s a quick way to help you determine if you are at risk. Take the Diabetes Risk Test online.
