Silent but Serious: Prediabetes and Heart Disease Pose Hidden Risks—But Prevention is Possible

(NAPSI)— Prediabetes and heart disease are two of the most common—and preventable—health threats in the U.S. More than 98 million adults have prediabetes, while heart disease remains the nation’s leading cause of death, claiming a life every 34 seconds, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Because both diseases often progress silently, many people don’t realize they’re at risk until serious complications occur. The good news: Early detection and prevention can make a big difference.
