Type 2 diabetes is at epidemic proportions these days but there are ways to control it, mainly through diet and exercise. What form of exercise is the best?

Researchers for The Archives of Internal Medicine studied the health of 32000 men over the course of two decades and have determined that approximately two and a half hours of aerobic exercise per week lowered the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by up to 52%. Doing the same amount of weight training was associated with a 34% lower risk. Combining the two forms of exercise resulted in the greatest reduction in risk.
