At present, no cure is available for diabetes, except for the (seldom) transplant of the pancreas. However, with regular self-monitoring of blood glucose combined with and an appropriate diet, exercise and medication, people with diabetes can lead healthy and active lives.
Various research studies have shown that lifestyle changes can prevent or delay the onset of Type 2 diabetes among high-risk adults. One study confirmed that dietary changes and moderate exercise (such as walking) prevented the development of diabetes with 58 percent of the participants.
Unfortunately, there is currently no way of preventing Type I diabetes. However, companies such as Lobeck Medical, produce products which do help people suffering from diabetes cope with their illness in the best possible way.
