Diabetes prevention tips

Type 2 diabetes is a common condition that causes your blood sugar level to rise significantly, and there are several warning signs that may indicate that you should talk to your doctor and have your blood sugar checked.

And the newspaper "Express" quoted the British Health Service as saying that many people suffer from type 2 diabetes without realizing it, because the symptoms do not necessarily make you feel unwell, and it is very important to diagnose diabetes as soon as possible because it will get worse if left without treatment.

A person develops type 2 diabetes when the body does not produce enough insulin to function properly, or when the cells of the body do not react with insulin, and this means that glucose remains in the blood and is not used as fuel for energy, and type 2 diabetes is often associated with obesity and increased Risks as age increases.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says you can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes, such as losing weight and increasing physical activity.

She explains that before developing type 2 diabetes, most people have prediabetes, which occurs when blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes.

The Mayo Clinic says losing weight reduces the risk of diabetes, and notes that people in one large study reduced their risk of developing diabetes by nearly 60 percent after losing nearly 7 percent of their body weight with changes in exercise and diet.

She added that fatty foods are high in calories and should be eaten in moderation, and to help lose weight and manage it, your diet should include a variety of foods that contain unsaturated fats.
