Lifestyle impacts and management of type 2 diabetes

Overview

Research continues to demonstrate that lifestyle interventions can significantly mitigate the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Previous studies involving the UK Biobank indicated that regular physical activity reduces risk, with activity performed between 1:00 PM and midnight potentially offering a 10 percent lower relative risk than morning exercise.

Findings presented at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) congress in Milan reinforce that combining moderate-to-vigorous physical activity with a diet low in ultra-processed foods can reduce the probability of developing the disease by up to 70%. For individuals with high genetic susceptibility, these habits were found to halve the risk, supporting researcher Wenxin Xu’s assertion that “DNA is not an inescapable destiny.”

Recent data presented at the same congress expanded the focus to management and remission. In the United States, real-world data from nearly 28,000 adults suggests that continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is associated with a 45% lower risk of death at 12 months and a 36% lower risk at 24 months for those using basal insulin, alongside reduced cardiovascular complications. Experts emphasized the need for equitable regional access to these technologies.

Furthermore, research from Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin indicates that type 2 diabetes remission—defined as maintaining HbA1c levels below 6.5% for at least three months without medication—is more achievable through intensive caloric restriction, particularly in individuals with a more recent diagnosis.
