Don’t smoke
Smoking increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. If you are a smoker, quitting smoking will benefit your health immediately. People with diabetes who quit smoking are better able to control their blood sugar levels.
Maintain a healthy weight
If you are overweight or obese, losing weight can help prevent or control type 2 diabetes. Adopting healthy eating habits and exercising regularly are key to maintaining a healthy weight.
Stay active
Regular physical activity can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in adults at high risk of developing the disease. Getting some form of exercise regularly, such as walking, swimming or playing sports, can make a difference. The American Diabetes Association recommends at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day, 5 days a week.
Change your lifestyle
Making lifestyle changes can help prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes. This is especially important if you are overweight or obese, have high cholesterol levels or a family history of diabetes. Adopting a healthy, balanced diet, controlling your sugar and fat intake, and staying active are key steps to preventing type 2 diabetes.
Control your blood sugar level
Maintaining proper control of your blood sugar is essential to managing type 2 diabetes. This includes following a healthy diet.
