Recent research has pointed out that the risk of diabetes can be offset with decreased fat or carbohydrate intake.

Researchers said that those looking to reduce their risk of diabetes must restrict their daily consumption of fat to about 27 percent of their diet.


"People find it hard to lose weight. What is important about our study is that the results suggest that attention to diet quality, not quantity, can make a difference in risk for type 2 diabetes," researchers said.
