New page added all about The National Diabetes Prevention Program The CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program is an evidence-based lifestyle change program for preventing type 2 diabetes.

• It can help people cut their risk of developing type 2 diabetes in half.
• The Diabetes Prevention Program research study showed that making modest behavior changes helped participants lose 5% to 7% of their body weight—that is 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person.
• These lifestyle changes reduced the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58% in people with prediabetes.
• Participants work with a lifestyle coach in a group setting to receive a 1-year lifestyle change program that includes 16 core sessions (usually 1 per week) and 6 post-core sessions (1 per month).
