how to not be diabetic

To reduce your risk of developing diabetes, consider the following lifestyle changes:

• Healthy Diet: Focus on whole foods like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Limit processed foods, sugary drinks, and high-fat foods.
• Regular Exercise: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking or cycling.
• Weight Management: Maintaining a healthy weight can significantly lower your risk of diabetes.
• Regular Check-ups: Monitor your blood sugar levels, especially if you have risk factors like a family history of diabetes or prediabetes.
• Avoid Smoking and Limit Alcohol: Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can increase your risk of diabetes.

If you have prediabetes, these steps can also help prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
