According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Approximately 86 Million Americans Age 20 and Older (37%) Have Prediabetes (i.e., Blood Glucose Levels Higher Than Normal But Not High Enough to Be Diagnosed With Diabetes) and 90% of Those With Prediabetes Do Not Know They Have It. Obesity Is Strongly Associated With Both Type 2 Diabetes and Prediabetes. Interventions to Prevent or Delay the Development of Type 2 Diabetes Have the Potential Both to Improve Individual Health and Quality of Life Through Disease Avoidance (e.g., Eye, Kidney, and Nerve Damage; Strokes; Heart Attacks) and to Save the Health Care System Substantial Medical Costs by Reducing the Incidence of Type 2 Diabetes and Its Associated Complications. Without Such Interventions, It Is Estimated That 15-30% of Individuals With Prediabetes Will Develop Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) Within Five Years. in Most of the Studies Conducted With Adult Ai/nas, Prevalence Rates of Obesity/overweight Are Higher Than the Respective U.s Rates for All Races Combined, With Native Americans Being Twice as Likely as Whites to Have Type 2 Diabetes. Lifestyle Changes to Reduce Obesity and Obesity-related Inflammation Have Been Shown to Reduce Symptom Burden in This Population. Lifestyle Interventions Delivered via Mobile Applications Are on the Rise in Order to Provide Low Cost, Personalized Options That Capitalize on Efforts to Promote Self-management and Health Behavior Change. Self-management Strategies (e.g., Healthy Diet and Exercise), as Part of a Lifestyle Intervention, Have Been Associated With Improved Outcomes in Cancer Populations; However, These Programs Rarely Included Personalization to Patients’ Preferences, and Have Had Limited Success in Demonstrating Long-term Adoption of Health Behaviors.
