As you get older, your risk for Type 2 diabetes increases. If you are age 60 or older, and overweight, you are at risk for diabetes even if you have no other risk factors.
Family history of diabetes increases these risk factors even more. Take some small steps every day to prevent or delay the onset of diabetes.
Losing even a modest amount of weight (10 to 14 pounds for a 200 pound person) is a workable goal to strive for.
Many people have diabetes and don't even know it! |
