** Maintain a moderate weight**
* Maintaining a moderate weight promotes healthy blood sugar levels and reduces
your risk of developing diabetes.
* Research shows that even a 5% reduction in body weight can improve your blood
sugar regulation and reduce the need for diabetes medication.
* For example, if a person weighs 200 pounds (91 kg) and loses just 1014 pounds
(4.56 kg), they may see significant improvements in their blood sugar levels.
* Whats more, losing more than 5% of your initial weight may benefit your
glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) readings. These are used as indicators of your blood
sugar levels over the past 3 months.
