About this trial

Lifestyle modifications, including dietary changes and increased physical activity, play a crucial role in controlling complications to reduce or eliminate them. As well as controlling disturbances in biochemical markers such as DNAm PhenoAge, and signs of aging such as circulating sclerostin (SOST) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15). This study seeks to address this dilemma by focusing on specific groups of elderly Saudis with prediabetes . Lifestyle changes in elderly Saudis with prediabetes show promise in reducing or eliminating complications. The potential insights derived from this research extend beyond academia, offering tangible benefits for clinical practice and public health

The proposed study will be implemented to achieve the following objective:

1. To determine changes in DNAm PhenoAge of elderly Saudis with prediabetes who underwent a 6-month lifestyle modification program. 2. To determine changes in other candidate senescence markers such as circulating sclerostin (SOST) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) of elderly Saudis with prediabetes who underwent a 6-month lifestyle modification program.
