The National Diabetes Prevention Program will run for 1 year at $44 per month. This includes a 23-part lecture series, nutritional programming, exercise support, testing, and monitoring.
Catalyst Fit is proud to team with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in offering the Diabetes Prevention Program.
The DPP is a lifestyle change program proven to delay and even prevent Type 2 diabetes and other significant health problems in at-risk populations.
While anyone is welcome, the DPP is primarily intended for adults with prediabetes.
As one of the few fitness centers with conditional CDC DPP approval, Catalyst Fit uses a holistic program focusing on improving the body-insulin relationship through nutrition, exercise and activity, stress control, and general wellness.
The DPP is a year-long program of education, nutrition, weight and activity monitoring, and personal and community support.
Classes are held weekly, becoming less frequent as the year progresses. A total of 23 classes are held per year, and a weekly dietary (including complementary access to our nutrition software) and activity log will be kept. Ketone and/or Glucose tests will be taken periodically. Clients will receive ongoing support throughout the program from Catalyst Fit.
The CDC target is a year-over-year weight loss of at least 5% and improved blood markers. Catalyst Fit takes this a step further and expects that full compliance will result in a weight loss of at least 10% and a reversal of prediabetic indicators.
