TWIW 66: Lifestyle can reverse diabetes

This Week In Wellness a new study investigating the impact of lifestyle interventions for early stage type 2 diabetics has shown that nearly two thirds can achieve complete remission within 12 months. The study published in the journal The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology comes on the back of many other studies in recent years showing the success of lifestyle interventions without the need for medication. It investigated 150 subjects with Middle Eastern or North African ancestry and an average age of 42 years. Participants we asked to follow a diet known as the Cambridge Weight Plan whilst also completing at least 150 minutes of physical exercise a week and walking at least 10,000 steps a day and were compared to a control group receiving standard medical care. https://newatlas.com/health-wellbeing/diet-exercise-reverses-diabetes-remission-lancet-trial-reports/ https://www.thelancet.com/journals/landia/article/PIIS2213-8587(20)30117-0/fulltext To join Brett for his FREE group mentoring session on the 25th of June go to www.drbretthill.com/vital The post TWIW 66: Lifestyle can reverse diabetes appeared first on The Wellness Couch.
