Measures to prevent diabetes ?

Type 2 diabetes can be avoided by making lifestyle adjustments and eating a plant-based diet. While there isn’t much you can do to avoid type 1 diabetes, the motto for type 2 diabetes is simple: keep slim and active. The majority of instances of type 2 diabetes may be avoided or postponed by maintaining a healthy weight, moving more, eating a nutritious diet, and avoiding smoking. Plant-rich diets have been shown to have a positive influence on diabetes in a growing number of studies. If you currently have diabetes, your goal should be to maintain a healthy weight, exercise regularly, and consume a well-balanced diet in order to improve blood glucose management.

The growing waistline of the country appears to be putting Indians at the greatest danger of diabetes. The single most important cause of type 2 diabetes is thought to be obesity. Your cells become more insulin resistant as you gain more fatty tissue. According to a new study, being overweight increases your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by seven times. Obesity also increases your risk of diabetes by 20–40 times compared to someone of a healthy weight. Losing 7-10% of your present weight, on the other hand, can decrease your risks of getting type 2 diabetes in half.

We seldom realize what constitutes a fatal inaction. Your capacity to utilise insulin and absorb glucose improves when you exercise your muscles. Your insulin-producing cells are less stressed as a result of this. Long, sweaty workouts aren’t required to reap the benefits. Walking briskly for half an hour every day can lower your risk of type 2 diabetes. It has been shown that brisk walking for more than five hours a week is an excellent way to keep a stable blood sugar level and body weight.

Consume a lot of fibre. Fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains, and nuts are all high in fibre. Fibre is thought to aid in the prevention of diabetes by improving blood sugar management, reducing the risk of heart disease, and encouraging weight reduction by making you feel full. Instead of sugary drinks, opt for water, coffee, or tea. Reduce your consumption of high-fat foods such as whole milk, cheese, and fried meals. According to a new study, eating more healthy fats such as nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils while avoiding animal fats and processed carbs can help prevent or control type 2 diabetes. Instead of red or processed meat, consume nuts, legumes, whole grains, chicken, or fish. Changing your lifestyle and eating habits can help you control your diabetes and enjoy your life.
