Background: Diabetes is one of the widely occurring diseases acting as a threat to mankind. 65% of the diabetic deaths are due to cardiovascular complications therefore diabetes acts as a major risk factor for vascular diseases. Sedentary lifestyles followed by today's generation with unhealthy eating habits and obesity are the major risk factors for diabetes. The current study aims at evaluating the effect of lifestyle intervention on glucose regulation among individuals without glucose intolerance or diabetes. Methods: The study was conducted during a 3 month period. In this study the participants were randomly divided into control and intervention group. Data regarding age, weight, height was recorded from all. The candidates in the intervention group were taught about healthy eating habits, improving their physical activity etc. The follow up was done at an interval of 1 month and 3 month. Changes occurring in the baseline values were recorded. The data was analysed by SPSS software. Results: Out of 1039 candidates, 520 candidates were included in Group I and 519 candidates in Group II. Age, sex and height were similar amongst both the groups showing no significant difference. Mean systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar level were higher in control group compared to intervention group. The intervention group demonstrated a change in physical activity by 37.5 +/-8.2 hours/ week compared to 12.3+/-5.1 hours/week. The BMI amongst the intervention group demonstrated a mean decrease by 0.21 +/-0.1 whereas the control group showed an increase by 0.17 +//-0.2. The difference was not significant between the groups. Conclusion: Lifestyle interventions influence the risk factors associated with diabetes or various other diseases. Thus any alterations in risk factors can decrease or increase the chances of occurrence of the disease.

Diabetes is fast gaining the status of a potential epidemic in India with more than 64.1 million diabetic individuals currently diagnosed with the disease. The increase in its prevalence is due to genetic predispositions, sedentary living, obesity, urbanization and change in lifestyle. The purpose of the present study is to find the effect of healthy eating and physical exercise on health outcome among type 2 diabetic patients by administering a compliance questionnaire. The questionnaire consist of 14 items that require a response on five-point likert-type scale and the health outcome was indexed by HbA1c level. Type 2 diabetic patients aged 30-60 years, with no comorbidity and minimum of six months duration of diabetes from Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College were selected. The Pearson correlation showed that healthy eating (r=-.475, p <.01) and exercise (r=-.266, p <.01) were significantly negatively correlated with health outcome. Only 21% of patients follow both recommended diet and exercise and their mean HbA1c level was 7. The result revealed that those who practice healthy eating habits and did more physical exercise have low level of HbA1c. It is concluded that less compliance score showed high HbA1c level leading to long term complications hence effecting health and quality of life.
Control of Blood Glucose in Type 2 Diabetes by Modification of Conventional Diet Composition
American Journal of Food and Nutrition, 2019
In this study, 100 clinically diagnosed types 2 diabetic patients were selected for investigation. The objective of this study was to control of blood glucose level in type 2 diabetic patient by the modification of conventional diet composition. The patients were studied using a randomized 5 week crossover design with the conventional and modified conventional diet (test diet) respectively. The mean body weight, BMI, waist circumference and waist to hip ratio were 60.1 ± 2.21 kg, 24.1 ± 2.71 kg/meter², 36.2 ± 0.762 inch and 0.904 ± 0.029 respectively with the conventional diet, that decreased to 59.5 ± 2.20 kg (P<0.01), 23.9 ± 2.73 kg/ meter² (P<0.05), 33.7 ± 0.512 inch (P<0.05) and 0.897 ± 0.026 (P<0.05) respectively after intervention of the test diet. The mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure were 124 ± 11.4 and 82 ± 6.9 mmHg respectively and after 5 weeks of intervention of test diet both the blood pressure decreased significantly (P<0.05) to 112 ± 8.6 and 69...

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus, as one of the major universal public health disorders widespread, requires patients' lifestyle modulation which would be conducive in dominating blood glucose. The aim of the study: to evaluate the effect of lifestyle modification on glycemic control of type 2 diabetic patients at Suez Canal University Hospitals at Ismailia city. Subjects & methods: This study was carried out at the Family Medicine Outpatient Clinic and the Diabetic Outpatient Clinic of Suez Canal University Hospitals at Ismailia city in Egypt. A quasiexperimental design made up of a control group and a study group with pre-and post-test administration was applied. 92 type 2 diabetic patients were included in this study. Health promoting lifestyle profile II Scale and Physical assessment sheet were used for data collection in the two groups. Results: After implementing of the program, those patients who received lifestyle modification intervention achieved better health promoting lifestyle domains values and glycated hemoglobin, compared with the control group. Factors related to lower glycated hemoglobin in the present study were lower fasting blood sugar level and increasing physical activity. Conclusion: Overall, lifestyle modification program has a positive influence on blood glucose control of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Therefore, it is recommended to that lifestyle modification interventions should be integral part of the curative management of type 2 diabetic patients, and further study in other places to investigate the effect of lifestyle modification on glycemic control of the patients.
Dietary Habits and Exercise Behaviour of Type -2 Diabetics
A study was conducted to know the dietary pattern and exercise behaviour of type-2 diabetics (n=50) using pretested schedule. More than half the diabetics had no family history of disorder. Most of the diabetics were on allopathic medicines (96%). The routine meal pattern was three meals and one snack, followed by three meals. The common foods restricted were those rich in sugar, fats and oils and fruits rich in sugar. Millets, cereal rotis and porridge, bitter gourd and vegetables were the special foods included for diabetes. Indigenous hypoglycemic foods such as fenu greek seeds, Jamun seeds, 'ekanayakam' roots and bitter gourd juice were consumed. Smoking (14.29 %) and drinking alcohol (47.62 %) were the vices seen in male diabetics. Half the diabetics (53.57%) had initiated exercise less than a year back. Walking was the main form of exercise (92.86%) followed by swimming and yogasana (7.69% each).
