Understanding the role of diet in type 2 diabetes prevention
British Journal of Community Nursing, 09/16/09

Wyness L et al. – Strategies to reduce obesity will have a beneficial effect on the prevalence of type 2 diabetes, as excess adiposity (particularly central adiposity) is a strong risk factor for the condition. Dietary measures to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease will also help prevent diabetes. Diets low in fat (particularly saturated fat), and high in fibre and complex carbohydrates are effective in reducing the risk of developing diabetes. Good quality evidence from trials is required to determine the role of specific micronutrients in diabetes prevention.
