5 Ways to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

Ways to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

Type II diabetes is disease where the body does not produce enough insulin. There is no relief from this once you get it as it causes a lot of damage to the body and other internal organs. Since there is never enough insulin to maintain the surplus blood sugar, the body reacts adversely to it causing you much pain and discomfort. Type II Diabetes can get pretty serious sometimes even resulting in death. With the increasing rate of diabetics around the world, there should be more awareness about how you can prevent it rather than suffer after getting it. Here are a few ways to prevent type II diabetes.

1. Maintaining a healthy body weight

One of the main reasons for a heightened risk of diabetes is the weight around your abdomen. Reducing the size of your stomach decreases the risk of diabetes to a great extent. Too much fat on the abdomen region reduces the production of insulin, thereby making you a diabetic. Maintain a healthy body weight that is also proportional to prevent type II diabetes.

2. Reducing the intake of sugary foods

Sometimes you may be at high risk for type II diabetes because your parents are both diabetic. In such cases it is advised to eat as much as less sugary foods as possible. Doing this will prevent you from getting type II diabetes for a while. With the proper diet you may even be lucky and not get it at all.

3. Choosing the right fats

In your quest to lose weight and prevent diabetes you should not shun fats completely. Omega-3 fatty acids are good for the heart as well as for diabetes prevention. But stay away from saturated fat that can promote inflammation and can cause insulin resistance in the body. Substitute your regular oil with olive oil and go the Mediterranean way to prevent diabetes.
