Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes pose significant global health challenges, with over 500 million people affected worldwide.

Dietitians play a key role by guiding clients through personalized nutrition plans. These plans are proven to significantly lower the risk of diabetes and improve health outcomes.
Is There Any Evidence Supporting Diabetes Reversal?
Yes, lifestyle interventions, particularly dietary modification combined with physical activity and weight management, remain the cornerstone of diabetes prevention and reversal. Recent research found that intensive lifestyle coaching reduced the incidence of type 2 diabetes by 58% over three years in people with prediabetes.(1)
This highlights that personalized diet and lifestyle programs, led by qualified professionals, are essential for sustainable diabetes remission.
Personalized Nutrition Powered by Digital Tools
Nutrition is not one-size-fits-all. Dietitians tailor meal plans that consider individual preferences, cultural backgrounds, medical history, and metabolic needs. One advanced technology is called digital twin (DT).

Mobile Health (mHealth) Apps
Many recent studies reveal that mobile applications designed specifically for diabetes management improve self-care and reduce HbA1c levels significantly for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients. These apps promote education, tracking, and behavioral support, reducing the gap between clinical visits and empowering patients to actively manage their condition (3).
