Are you at risk of having pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes? The Canadian Public Health Agency has designed a short online diabetes risk questionnaire to help you find out.
Risk Factors:
- Males are at a higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
- As you age, your risk of developing diabetes goes up.
- High blood pressure
- The more overweight you are, the higher your risk.
- Body fat stored around the abdomen is a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes.
- Lack of physical activity increases the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes.
- An unusually high blood sugar maybe a warning sign that you are at high risk of developing full-blown diabetes in the future.
- Certain ethno-cultural groups are at higher risk of developing diabetes.
