Weight Control

Weight control is an issue for many people living with type 2 diabetes. In addition to being a risk factor for developing diabetes, being overweight or obese also promotes the insulin resistance that is the main mechanism behind type 2 diabetes.

In addition, because excess blood sugar is stored by the body as fat, uncontrolled diabetes can make weight control even more difficult.
