Diet and Exercise Program Induces Type 2 Diabetes Remission in Half of Young Adults

New research presented at the 2026 European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) Annual Meeting and published in The Lancet Regional Health Americas, found that over half of young adults (aged 18-45) with early-onset Type 2 Diabetes achieved remission within 24 weeks through a low-energy diet combined with structured aerobic and resistance exercise. The program also led to significant weight loss and preserved muscle mass without severe safety concerns.
