Type 2 diabetes can be controlled by dietary and lifestyle changes like exercise only in initial phase. As diabetes is a progressive disease and most patients have declining beta cell function, so as time progresses blood sugar levels can't be controlled with lifestyle changes alone. So, oral antidiabetic drugs and insulin are used. But, nevertheless the importance of lifestyle changes can't be undermined. The logic is simple that our calorie intake is not high, so take small frequent meals and avoid high calorie food and drinks. Exercise is also advised to improve calorie expenditure and reduce bmi (weight loss). Simple blood tests can reveal our beta cell function and fbs/ppbs, hba1c reveals the control of the disease.
