Movement and Moderation Prevent Diabetes
A sedentary lifestyle significantly heightens the risk of diabetes; regular walking and exercise serve as effective preventive measures. A poor diet and obesity are primary contributors, with data indicating that being overweight increases the risk of diabetes by 80-85%. The Framingham Heart Study reveals that individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 30 face a seven-fold higher risk of developing diabetes. High body fat, not just BMI, correlates strongly with this risk, surpassing genetic factors. Maintaining low body fat through exercise and a balanced diet is crucial for reducing the likelihood of diabetes. Although stress also influences diabetes risk, dietary choices play a key role in managing insulin resistance and blood sugar levels.
