A healthier lifestyle could be a game-changer when it comes to preventing type 2 diabetes.
Some people may already be at increased risk of getting the disease, because of excess weight, obesity, high cholesterol, or a family history of diabetes.
There’s no specific cure for type 2 diabetes, but losing weight, eating well, and exercising can help people prevent and manage the disease.
Losing extra weight, for example, could reduce the risk of developing diabetes up to 60 percent.
