Among persons aged ≥65 years, one in four is estimated to have diabetes, and one in two has prediabetes (1). Persons with prediabetes are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes,and heart disease, and stroke (2). However, type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed through a healthy lifestyle like physical activity,healthy diet etc
