Description

Background: According to estimates, the prevalence of diabetes among the Indian population reached around 77 million individuals in the year 2019. The projected estimate for this numerical value is anticipated to surpass 134 million by the year 2045. The implementation of dietary and physical activity modifications is crucial for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Engaging in regular physical activity (PA) can delay the onset of diabetes-related chronic conditions such as neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy, while also mitigating their advancement.  Methodology: In this 12-week prospective trial, 100 uncontrolled T2DM patients were randomly assigned to the Lifestyle Modification Group and Control. The LMG received supervised and guidance on lifestyle modification. Whereas the other group received Standard treatment and medication changes. HbA1c, FBS, and PPBS were measured at baseline and 12 weeks. Result: The difference in the changes found in both the groups were statistically significant, as indicated by p-values less than 0.0001 for both blood sugar that is fasting and postprandial, p-value less than 0.001 for glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Conclusion: A lifestyle modification program involving dietary changes and exercise demonstrated an improvement in blood glucose levels Keywords: lifestyle modification, type 2 diabetes mellitus, sugar levels

 

 

Abstract (English)

Background: According to estimates, the prevalence of diabetes among the Indian population reached around 77 million individuals in the year 2019. The projected estimate for this numerical value is anticipated to surpass 134 million by the year 2045. The implementation of dietary and physical activity modifications is crucial for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Engaging in regular physical activity (PA) can delay the onset of diabetes-related chronic conditions such as neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy, while also mitigating their advancement.  Methodology: In this 12-week prospective trial, 100 uncontrolled T2DM patients were randomly assigned to the Lifestyle Modification Group and Control. The LMG received supervised and guidance on lifestyle modification.
