Prediabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes. It's a critical warning sign that, without intervention, often leads to diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. In the Philippines, the prevalence of prediabetes is growing, highlighting the need for early detection, lifestyle changes, and national health awareness.

Dyslipidemia refers to abnormal levels of lipids (fats) in the blood, including cholesterol and triglycerides. This condition significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attacks and strokes. In the Philippines, where heart disease remains a leading cause of death, the high prevalence of dyslipidemia highlights the urgent need for greater awareness, early diagnosis, and proactive management.
