Overview
There two recommended methods for reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes development. Life style modification is the mainstay for diabetes mellitus prevention, which includes diet considerations as well as regular Physical exercise. Metformin is another adjunctive measure to prevent diabetes in high risk persons.
Primary Prevention
- prevention of diabetes mellitus type 2 is based on two major concepts: Life style modification and pharmacological prevention. Life style modification is more effective than pharmacological intervention. Effects of life style modification usually last longer than pharmacological intervention. [1]
Life style modification
- Studies have shown that 7% weight loss during 6 months in obese individuals is effective for diabetes prevention.[2]
- The recommended pace of weight loss is 1–2 lb/week.[3]
- Calorie goals were calculated by estimating the daily calories needed to maintain the participant’s initial weight and subtracting 500–1,000 calories/day. Reducing caloric intake is of paramount importance for those at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
- Reducing fat intake and fat quality is also important in this group.[3]
- Grains may help to prevent type 2 diabetes.[4]
- Higher intakes of nuts, [5] berries[6], yogurt[7], coffee and tea[8] are associated with reduced diabetes risk.
- Conversely, red meats and sugar sweetened beverages are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes.[9]
- 150 min/week of moderate intensity physical activity, such as brisk walking, showed beneficial effects in those with prediabetes.[10]
- Moderate intensity physical activity has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce abdominal fat in children and young adults.[11][12]
Pharmacologic intervention
- Metformin therapy for prevention of type 2 diabetes should be considered in those with prediabetes, especially for those with BMI >35 kg/m2, age > 60 years, women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus, and/or those with rising A1C despite lifestyle intervention.
