Prevention and Treatment of Diabetes in Adults

Participants will be issued a fitness tracker, Bluetooth enabled glucometer, and a custom developed app which they can communicate digitally to the study investigators either as a group or individually. In the beginning of the study, participants will be taught on how to use the program, how to interact with their coach, and the importance of maintaining motivation throughout the program. Participants will have access to a pharmacist-participant messaging, group messaging, daily challenges for behavior change, education articles (biweekly bite-sized content over 24 weeks), food logging, steps and exercise logging, and feedback. They will be asked to log their weight, meals, and physical activity within the program on a weekly basis. Pharmacist will monitor participant progress through a web-based dashboard. Community pharmacist will be assisting users in setting specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-based goals on a weekly basis.

Participants will be issued a fitness tracker and Bluetooth enabled glucometer but these functions will not be enabled or linked to any app. All participants will be given physical tracking sheets to log in their food intake, blood glucose levels and food diary but will not have access to a personal coaching. Participants are free to seek any assistance for their medical care during the study period.
