Health behaviour change considerations for weight loss and type 2 diabetes: nutrition, physical activity and sedentary behaviour

Abstract

Good nutrition, regular physical activity and low levels of sedentary behaviour are important in the prevention, management and treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Self-management requires individuals to have the capability to enact, opportunity to enable and motivation to perform relevant health behaviours. These behaviours, and the bio-psycho-social drivers of them, should be considered when working in the area of T2DM. Copyright © 2020 John Wiley & Sons
