00:01 So let's wrap up this video series. 00:03 Four killer factors that will increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes include: family history of diabetes, impaired insulin sensitivity or production of insulin, inappropriate production of glucose by the liver and excess adipose tissue. 00:21 If a patient has at least three of the five criteria for metabolic syndrome, they have a higher risk of developing diabetes. 00:28 Patients can develop prediabetes without even knowing they have it or noticeable symptoms. 00:34 The healthcare team, and that's you, can help the patient delay, or prevent the development of diabetes by recognizing the contributing factors and helping the patient take practical steps toward managing these factors. 00:48 Thank you for watching this video today.
