Posted by admin in Diabetes on 08 2nd, 2008 | one response

Regular exercise, healthy diet and proper care helps in controlling and preventing diabetes, studies say.

A researcher of the Hospital Universitari Arnau de Vilanova in Spain after reviewing some eight studies has said that low fat and high fibre diet, with a combination of regular exercise reduced the risk of developing diabetes type 2 by almost 37 per cent.

The studies also show that patients also lost weight and improved their blood pressure, which are considered to be risk factors of developing diabetes.

Another study by a researcher of the University of Teesside says that fruits and vegetables and low sugar foods reduced the incidence of type 2 diabetes.

However, the researches also feel that they could not arrive at confident conclusions on diabetes and points that it is still not clear of the kind of diet to be recommended for people who are vulnerable to developing diabetes. .

Another study focussed on the improvement of health of diabetes patients from the ethnic minority through health education in their own language. The researchers have found that combining the education strategies had a good impact on the diabetes patients from the ethnic minority.

The researchers, however, stress that a healthy diet and proper exercise can help prevent diabetes.
