Hi
I have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I am 35 years old.
Could you suggest an exercise and diet routine to help me reverse diabetes?
Thank you,
Karan Tank

Ans:

Type 2 diabetes can occur due to a number of reasons like obesity, lifestyle habits, hormonal imbalance, genetic factors, etc.

Depending on your current weight, BMI and calorie intake, you will need to identify your nutritional requirements and follow a low carbohydrate, high fibre diet with essential antioxidants.

Protein is an essential nutrient as it is the building block of our body.

An adequate protein intake combined with an exercise regimen that focuses on strengthening and cardio exercises will help in building lean mass and lower your body fat percentage.

Include salads, vegetables and fruits in your diet.

Avoid high carb and fat foods like chocolates, pastries, sweets, desserts, fast foods, aerated water, etc.

Drink plenty of water and maintain regular eating habits. This will help in lowering your glycaemic index and help reverse diabetes.
