After a 7 question "At Risk Assessment", BLDP will allow the participant to take an A1C diabetes screening which provides a score that reflects the average amount of blood sugar (glucose) for the last 3 months. Results are not dependent on what the participant just had to eat or drink, so no need to fast before the program.
