Against Prediabetes
Take Charge of Your Health
Prediabetes puts a person at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke, but fortunately, the prediabetes can be reversed. We aim to educate and activate seafarers and fishermen through their own efforts with the support of our coaches to reverse their prediabetes.
Invitation to a pilot intervention study
Samples of seafarers from maritime medical clinics (n=1-5) from each clinic with newly diagnosed pre-diabetes HbA1c 5.7% to 6.4%, or Glucometer based: Fasting or Postprandial blood glucose levels on 100-125 mg/dl or 140-199 mg/dl respectively constitute the study population in a 16-week pre-diabetes coaching program. Aims: 1. To educate and encourage seafarers to reverse their newly diagnosed prediabetes in a 16-week prediabetes coaching and learning intervention study. 2. To apply the course materials in an educational program, not as research.
