Prevention or Delay of Type 2 Diabetes

 Patients with pre-diabetes should be referred to an intensive diet and

physical activity behavioral counseling program, targeting a loss of 7%
of body weight and should increase their moderate-intensity physical

activity (such as brisk walking) to at least 150 min/week.
 Follow-up counseling and maintenance programs should be offered for

long-term success in preventing diabetes.
