Lifestyle & Diabetes Prevention

Can lifestyle changes prevent type 2 diabetes?

Healthy eating, regular physical activity and appropriate weight management can substantially reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in people at increased risk.

Can prediabetes be reversed?

Blood glucose can return to the normal range in some people through weight management, physical activity and dietary changes. Continued monitoring remains important because risk can return.

Is exercise alone enough to prevent diabetes?

Exercise is very important, but the combination of physical activity, nutrition, weight management and other healthy behaviours is more effective.
