In addition, 193 million people with diabetes remain undiagnosed since most often have mild or asymptomatic nature of this condition especially in type II DM (TIIDM).
The reduction of exercise, and changes in diet have all contributed to weight gain and thus the increase of Type II diabetes. Being overweight, especially carrying extra pounds around the waistline, adds to Type II diabetes risk.

The goal of this literature review was to bring more insights into the importance of non-pharmacological treatment and management of diabetes.
The research question is to evaluate how lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, and non-smoking) affect the treatment and prevention of diabetes type II. The research study was based on a literature review. The research was done by collecting evidence-based material from previous literature publications. It was carried out using the following database such as Cinahl with full text, Ebooks, SeAmk Finna, and Google books. In other to prevent TIIDM, little changes in one’s lifestyle can have a huge impact and influ-ence the chances of getting the disease. Diabetes mellitus can be prevented by diet and exercise before the early stages of diabetes or metabolic disorders.
