#4 – Manage & Maintain A Healthy Weight

Chances of diabetes in overweight people are high. So, if your weight is on the higher side, you should make efforts to reduce it. Studies reveal that losing even 7% of body weight can reduce the chances of diabetes by 55 to 60%.

Exercise regularly, eat healthy foods and avoid junk food to maintain or reduce your weight. Also try to eat slowly. When you eat slowly, you are likely to be satisfied with less amount of food. This is because it takes our brain almost 20 minutes to give the satiation signal. If you eat fast, you might already have overeaten by the time brain tells you that you are full.
