Diabetes Foundation’s mission is to improve the health and wellness of individuals living with or at-risk of diabetes through equitable, accessible, compassionate, high-quality care.

Diabetes is manageable which makes the Hemoglobin A1C screening vitally important. When prediabetes or diabetes is identified you can act. When informed you are given an opportunity to manage your diabetes on a day to day basis.

Not knowing the hemoglobin A1C level is a disadvantage and may result in a quick progression from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes without awareness and early intervention.

Without intervention, diabetes complications related to heart disease, such as high blood pressure, heart attack or stroke are more common. Kidney disease (nephropathy), eye disease (retinopathy), nerve damage (neuropathy) and other vascular conditions are more likely to occur when diabetes is diagnosed later.

Screening for prediabetes and diabetes through a hemoglobin A1C test is empowering and can support your quality of life!

Know Your Risk. Get Screened.

Knowing for sure is the first step to better health. Take a minute and take the prediabetes risk test now to see where you stand.
