She said: "Unfortunately, our lifestyle leads many people to spend most of their day sitting, which increases the risk of developing diabetes and many other chronic diseases. Diet is also a risk factor, as excessive consumption of added sugar, sweetened beverages, and processed foods, such as salami, sausages, and large quantities of ready meals, increases the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes."
She added that sleep deprivation also contributes to the development of the disease, noting the need to sleep for a period ranging between 7 and 8 hours at night.
She explained: "The good news is that prevention is possible, and type 2 diabetes can even be remissiond. This means that some interventions may help to keep the symptoms of the disease at bay for several years. A healthy diet and physical activity play a big part in this, and significant weight loss, including after bariatric surgery, has a positive effect."
Regarding disease prevention, the doctor advises not only avoiding unhealthy foods, but also making sure to eat healthy foods daily, stressing that dietary diversity is an essential element.
She said: "The diet should contain plenty of fiber, which is found in whole grains and some food products. In recent years, our interest in the importance of the composition of gut bacteria has increased."
