Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition, but it can be managed effectively, and in some cases, remission is possible. Remission means blood sugar levels are within a normal range without the need for diabetes medication. Here’s how:

  • Lifestyle Changes: Weight loss, healthy eating, and regular physical activity can significantly improve blood sugar control.
  • Medication: Some people may need medications or insulin initially, but lifestyle changes can reduce or eliminate the need for them.
  • Monitoring: Regular blood sugar monitoring helps track progress.

While remission is possible, it’s important to maintain healthy habits to prevent the condition from returning. Always consult your healthcare provider for a personalized plan.
