How diabetes risk is calculated
This calculator uses a point-based system based on the FINDRISC (Finnish Diabetes Risk Score), which looks at key risk factors.
• Age (risk increases with age)
• Weight (BMI and waist circumference)
• Physical activity level
• Diet quality
• Blood pressure history
• Blood sugar history
• Family history of diabetes
This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. See a doctor for blood sugar testing.
