The certified diabetes educator (CDE) has encouraged a patient with metabolic syndrome who experienc

The certified diabetes educator (CDE) has encouraged a patient with metabolic syndrome who experienced hyperglycemia during hospitalization to attend outpatient diabetes education classes. The patient asks why the classes are needed if diabetes is not a health problem. What is the nurse's best response?
1. "The certified diabetes educator (CDE) saw that you had high blood sugars while in the ICU. I will let her know that you are not diabetic."
2. "You will learn about healthy diet, weight management, and exercise. This knowledge can delay the onset of type 2 diabetes."
3. "If you maintain a healthy diet, correct weight, and exercise you can delay the onset of type 2 diabetes."
4. "The class is only for those with diabetes. If you become diabetic you may attend the class."
