The good news is that DT2 is a lifestyle disease ... and therefore can be prevented and even reversed if recently diagnosed. The bad news is that it's now reaching ever younger populations.

It's unfortunate healthy lifestyle (mostly plant based foods, physical activity, and stress control, often resulting in sound sleep) is the way out of it but we fret about disease and forget about how it have started in the first place. This seems to have worked for me for 8 decades -- free of meds and doctor visits.
