Summary

Prediabetes is a major risk factor for diabetes. The Lifestyle Modification Mobile Health Application (APP) could not only help to decrease blood sugar among individuals with prediabetes but it could also prevent a later occurrence of diabetes. While many people use traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to improve the participants body constitution in Chinese culture, it rarely if ever obtained through a mobile device. There are very few apps that provide effective TCM regimen-based lifestyle advice for prediabetes. Therefore, the investigators want to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of receiving TCM regimen-based lifestyle advice from a mobile device designed to improve the applicant's health status.
