Researchers found that prediabetes among youths in the U.S. increased significantly from 11.6% to 28.2% between 1999 and 2018.
"These numbers are striking, and it's pretty clear that, if we don't do something to bring down these numbers, we are going to see a significant increase in diabetes in the United States," study co-author Junxiu Liu
According to the CDC, approximately 96 million American adults—more than 1 in 3—have prediabetes. More than 80% don’t know they have it, the agency added.Having prediabetes increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. The CDC has outlined symptoms of prediabetes such as being overweight, being 45 years or older, having a parent, brother, or sister with type 2 diabetes, being physically active less than 3 times a week.
