People always talk about how diet is such a massive part of training, but they think that if they cheat all the time they can somehow out-do the damage in the gym.

Balanced, sensible nutrition: eat food, not too much, mostly plants, a healthy diet ala Michael Pollan, modern physical activity on a daily basis, modest weight loss - translated into a 58% reduction in the occurrence of diabetes.

The challenge now is the development of the community-based programs that will translate what we learned in the diabetes prevention program and put it to work in every town in America.
