Some ways to prevent getting diabetes are...

1. Cut Sugar and Refined Carbs From Your Diet

Eating sugary foods and refined carbs  can put at-risk individuals on the fast track to developing diabetes. A detailed analysis of 37 studies found that people with the highest intakes of fast-digesting carbs were 40% more likely to develop diabetes than those with the lowest intakes (7).

2. Work Out Regularly

Performing physical activity on a regular basis may help prevent diabetes. Exercise increases the insulin sensitivity of your cells. So when you exercise, less insulin is required to keep your blood sugar levels under control. Working out more frequently seems to lead to improvements in insulin response and function. One study in people at risk of diabetes found that burning more than 2,000 calories  weekly via exercise was required to achieve these benefits (14). Therefore, it's best to choose physical activity that you enjoy, can engage in regularly and feel you can stick with long-term.

3. Drink Water as Your Primary Beverage

Sugary beverages like soda and punch have been linked to an increased risk of both type 2 diabetes and latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA).
By contrast, consuming water may provide benefits. Some studies have found that increased water consumption may lead to better blood sugar control and insulin response (18, 19). One 24-week study showed that overweight adults who replaced diet sodas with water while following a weight loss program experienced a decrease in insulin resistance and lower fasting blood sugar and insulin levels (19).
