Diabetes is a serious, chronic disease. Without control, it can lead to heart and kidney disease, among other health issues.
Some risk factors like age, gender, family history, and ethnic background are out of your control. However, you can make lifestyle changes that have a significant impact on other risk factors such as weight, activity level, diet, and smoking habits.
If your Body Mass Index (BMI) is 25 or above, reducing your weight may help lower your risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Even modest changes can make a difference.
Understanding your risk is the first step towards making informed health decisions. Our CANRISK test can help identify your potential for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. After taking the test, we encourage you to speak with our pharmacists to discuss your results and any concerns you might have.
