ILI can prevent T2D in subjects with PD. Healthcare teams should aim for structured ILI to maintain long-term lifestyle improvements.

As reported in the abstract
- Intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) reduced T2D risk vs general advice
- 22 %

- Studies with mostly female populations and those using WHO 1985 criteria for T2D had lower risk of the disease
- The longer the follow-up, the lower the protection
