Diabetes Prevention

Type 1 diabetes can’t be prevented. However, at WellStar we believe a healthy lifestyle is the best way to prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in people who have pre-diabetes or other risk factors for diabetes. Preventive steps you can take include:


  • Adopting a healthy diet
  • Increasing your level of physical activity
  • Maintaining a healthy weight
  • Getting educated through WellStar classes on ways to avoid developing diabetes
