Dieting Keeps Diabetes at Bay

A period of careful eating and regular exercise can stave off diabetes for a decade, a study suggests. US researchers followed up nearly 3,000 overweight people who had taken part in a three year diabetes prevention program.

The US-based Diabetes Prevention Program Research Group had shown a diet aimed at achieving 7% weight loss, combined with half an hour of exercise five days a week, reduced the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes by 58%.

Tomorrow, October 31, is Halloween in America. Halloween marks a week of over eating chocolate bars and candy. Sugar, sugar and more sugar. I guess we will have to start our diabetes prevention diet next week.
