How to prevent diabetics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise; AvoidCarbs: To avoid adult (type 2) diabetes, one should have lucky genetics, exercise often, avoid sugar, plus avoid simple carbs. Diabetes is a disease in which a person cannot make enough insulin to transfer blood sugar into the body's cells (thus, cells are unable to get fuel). In pre-diabetes, there is still enough insulin to prevent the blood sugar level from going up to the full-blown diabetes levels.
