LOSING WEIGHT WILL HELP REDUCE DIABETES?

A new study by British scientists has found that, if achieved a moderate weight loss in the first few years of diagnosis of type 2 diabetes, can lead to a reduction in diabetes.

Researchers from Cambridge analyzed data of 867 people aged 40-69 with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. After a follow-up of about 5 years, the research team found 256 individuals, equivalent to 30% of the participants, the diabetes got better by the end of the 5-year period. It is worth noting that participants who lost at least 10% of their weight within 5 years of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes would experience a 2-year improvement in their disease compared to those who had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. people do not lose weight.

According to GS. Simon Griffin, these findings underscore the importance of diet and lifestyle interventions in managing the disease and may even reverse diabetes. And weight management can be achieved through dietary changes and increased physical activity.
