Take control of your health and diabetes
Type 2 diabetes doesn’t have to be a lifelong condition. Research shows that by losing 10 kilograms to 15 kilograms, many people can achieve diabetes remission and improve their long-term health.
While remission is a realistic goal for many adults with type 2 diabetes, not everyone will meet the eligibility criteria for the programmes offered.
What is diabetes remission?
Diabetes remission means your blood glucose (sugar) levels return to a non-diabetes range without needing diabetes medication.
Not everyone will achieve remission, but many people who take part experience huge improvements in their health, weight, energy levels, and overall wellbeing.
Remission is not a cure. Diabetes can return, particularly if weight is regained. However, with the right support and ongoing lifestyle changes, many people can keep their diabetes well controlled for years.
