Preventing Type 2 Diabetes with Lifestyle

“Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable with healthy lifestyle choices. Maintaining a balanced

diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats

helps control blood sugar levels. Regular physical activity—such as brisk walking for

at least 30 minutes most days—improves insulin sensitivity. Maintaining a healthy weight,

managing stress, getting adequate sleep, and limiting sugary foods and processed

carbohydrates can significantly reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Regular health checkups

and early screening are also key to prevention.”
