Prediabetes Raises Risk
for Heart Attack, Stroke

One in three Coloradans over age 20 has “prediabetes” — higher than normal blood sugar levels — and is at high risk for developing full-blown diabetes within six years. Yet 90% of them don’t even know it!

When prediabetes progresses to diabetes, you have a much higher risk for heart and kidney disease, stroke, blindness and many other serious conditions. Luckily, many people with prediabetes can delay or even prevent the onset of full diabetes.

Come hear a board-certified internist describe how prediabetes is diagnosed, the terrible toll it can take when uncontrolled and practical steps you can take to help ward off full-blown diabetes.
