Prevent Type 2 Diabetes
To prevent Type 2 Diabetes, an exercise routine and daily walk play an important role.
To delay or prevent onset of Type 2 diabetes, an exercise routine and modest weight loss should become a part of the lifestyle. Exercising regularly, (especially a brisk, daily walk), reducing the 
intake of fat and calorie-rich food, and losing weight can help in reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Exercise and other moderate levels of physical activity, such as brisk walking for about 30 minutes a day can also lengthen life. If you want to live healthier and longer, start now with a daily walk and/or exercise.
The Washington Post, in an editorial, made some interesting calculations. If you invest in 30 minutes of walking a day, you will spend 49 days of the next 12 years of your life walking, which is enough to gain 1.3 healthy years. Developing better daily habits and routines offers the promise of enhanced cardiovascular fitness and improved glycemic control while reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
In order to avoid type 2 diabetes, a walk is recommended 1 to 2 
hours after the main meal, when your insulin and blood sugar levels have settled down. To cure type 2 diabetes, exercise in the morning is recommended, since it avoids the peak insulin part of the day. Drinking lots of water along with the walking should not be neglected since dehydration can occur. The most important thing is to wear properly fitted athletic shoes to prevent blisters and other injuries, such as plantar fasciitis.
For a patient with type 2 diabetes, exercise and walking can also help in lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels. This means that exercise and a walk can keep off the fat as well as improve the mood, which can allow a diabetic patient to lower the chances of getting advanced stages of the disease.
When diabetes prevention is proven, possible, and powerful, why not invest time in walking right now rather then investing money in pills. Simply, to avoid type 2 diabetes, exercise should become a regular part of life.
