Type 2 diabetes cannot be fully reversed, but it can be managed effectively and even put into remission. Here’s how:
- Lifestyle Changes: Adopting a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight loss can significantly improve blood sugar levels.
- Medications: Some people may need medications or insulin to manage their condition.
- Monitoring: Regular blood sugar monitoring and A1C tests help track progress.
Remission is possible when blood sugar levels return to normal without the need for diabetes medications. However, maintaining these changes is crucial to prevent the condition from worsening.
