SLASH Your Risk of Diabetes in HALF!
We’re almost at the end of January.
How are those New Year’s weight loss resolutions holding up?
If you’re like most people… they’re already in the rearview mirror.
That can be a big problem if you’re trying to lose weight to avoid type 2 diabetes.
But you don’t have to lose 10, 20, or even 30 pounds to reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes.
According to a recent study, you don’t have to lose nearly as much weight as you’d think to reduce your risk.
Being overweight increases your risk of type 2 diabetes.
But if you’re already overweight or obese, the thought of dropping multiple pants sizes can be daunting.
In fact, it can make many people quit before they’ve even started.
But I’ve got great news for you today, courtesy of a recent study published in JAMA Internal Medicine.
The study included over 1,000 people with prediabetes who were at a high risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The researchers found that following a real-world lifestyle program that included small, achievable lifestyle adjustments made a dramatic difference in the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Specifically, losing an average of just 5 pounds and increasing physical activity reduced the risk of diabetes by up to 47 percent.
That’s nearly cutting the risk of diabetes in HALF!
Losing 50 pounds might sound daunting—heck, even 25 can be tough.
But five pounds?
Anyone can do that!
When it comes to weight, the more you lose, the better.
But a study like this shows that when it comes to health—and reducing your risk of type 2 diabetes—it doesn’t have to be all or nothing.
