Why would I try the Diabetes Prevention Program?
This digital lifestyle change program combines the latest technology with ongoing support to help you build healthy habits that last. Plus, your PEBB medical plan will cover the entire cost of the program.
More than 1 in 3 American adults have prediabetes, a serious health condition that can result in type 2 diabetes. This program can help you reduce the risks for type 2 diabetes by learning lifestyle changes to:
- Improve your health.
- Feel better and more energetic.
- Build confidence by learning new habits and skills.
Clinical research shows these lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by almost 60 percent.
