Lifestyle Modification for Diabetes and Heart Disease Prevention

by Richa Patel; Reddog E. Sina; Daniel Keyes 12/02/24 National Library of Medicine 

Two of the most prevalent diseases worldwide are type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and coronary artery disease. T2DM occurs when there is a decrease in insulin sensitivity, leading to higher amounts of glucose being present in the bloodstream. Coronary artery disease, or heart disease, develops over time as plaque builds up within the coronary arteries, causing a higher likelihood of developing myocardial infarction in the future. Though both of these conditions have specific disease processes, developing T2DM has been associated with a significantly higher incidence of developing coronary artery disease.
