Everyone in the study group are pre-diabetic, ie, all had high levels of sugar in the blood were higher than normal but not in the diabetic range. Half of people diagnosed with pre-diabetes will eventually become type 2 diabetics, if not treated.

There were two groups of people in this study. Half of the participants were given dietary recommendations to follow. The other half were fed the same diet but were asked to exercise 5 times a week for at least 30 minutes a day. The results of this study were unexpected. The pre-diabetics who exercise together following the diabetic diet reduced by 58% their risk of developing diabetes. The reason was simple, but has lost weight because of these changes in lifestyle. The researchers found that physical activity and weight loss was the direct effect of lower levels of blood sugar to normal, that nobody thought was possible.
