Diabetes Risk Assessment at UHC
Millions of Americans are at moderate to high risk for type II diabetes and don't realize it.
Risk factors for type II diabetes include family history of the condition, lack of exercise, poor dietary habits, being overweight, or being of certain ethnic background (especially Aftrican American, Latino, Native American, Asian American or Pacific Islander).
To better assess your risk for diabetes, take the American Diabetes Asociation's self-assessment risk test at http://www.diabetes.org/risk.
Make an appointment with the Health Center at 540.568.6178 to discuss your results, evaluate your risk and create a plan to combat the onset of diabetes.
