Abstract
Conventional medicine's approach to dealing with the rising tide of diabetes diagnosis in the United States has proven ineffective. The usual strategy used to prevent the development of diabetes for the person with pre-diabetes consists of using behavior modification to change symptoms. A more effective approach is to address the issues underlying the behaviors, which also makes possible the general development of better health and well-being. This paper describes a holistic health education approach to working with people who have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes.
