Source: Diet clues for preventing diabetes – Nutrition Action
The title is catchy and leads you to believe you can “prevent” diabetes with diet. I personally favor the concept of delaying diabetes rather than preventing the disease. My father (deceased) had, and my youngest brother has diabetes. I knew what my risk was and continues to be.

Stay as thin as you can as long as you can.
Be nice to your pancreas!
