4. Diagnosis / General Health: For healthy elderly, good general health (no known cardiovascular or metabolic disease), nonsmokers, accustomed to normal levels of activity as assessed by pedometer and accelerometer devices during baseline testing (>5000 steps per day). For obese elderly, general good health (no known cardiovascular or metabolic disease), nonsmokers, with low levels of physical activity as assessed by pedometer and accelerometer devices during baseline testing (<4000 steps per day). Fasting blood glucose must be <5.6 mmol/mL for healthy older adults and between 5.6 and 6.9 mmol/mL for obese older adults. Fasting concentrations of A1C should be <5.7% for healthy and between 5.7 and 6.4% for prediabetic older adults. These values are in line with the type 2 diabetes classification listed by The American Diabetes Association (DIABETES CARE, VOLUME 33, SUPPLEMENT 1, JANUARY 2010).
