A 2001 Finnish study published in the New England Journal of Medicine suggests that a well-balanced diet can help to prevent diabetes in high-risk people. Researchers looked at over 500 overweight adults with impaired tolerance to glucose. The patients were divided into two groups, with the first group given advice from a nutritionist based on eating fewer fatty foods and more fruits and vegetables and cereals. They were also told about the benefits of exercise. The second group was not given this nutrition and exercise advice. After three years, 59 people in the second group developed diabetes, compared to only 27 in the group given eating and exercise guidelines.
