Diabetes is one of the leading challenges to the health care or`ganization across world. Worldwide, 422 million peoples suffering from diabetes 1. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder which is characterized by abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, protein. The main etiological factors contributes in the development of diabetes are sedentary lifestyle, obesity, intake of junk foods. It is mandatory to manage increased blood sugar level (BSL) to prevent microvascular as well as macrovascular complications. To manage diabetes, metformin and insulin play a key role hence these two medications added in the diabetes pharmacotherapy. Diabetes is not a treatable disease hence we have to maintain weight by doing regular exercise and implementation of dietary modifications. It is important to maintain the balance of daily calories intake and their utilization by practicing physical activity remain the primary and most effective prevention strategy for diabetes management. A management strategy basically involves promotion of effective weight loss and physical exercise, but it is compulsory to do exercise and follow dietary modifications regularly. This is a comprehensive review which focuses on lifestyle modifications in diabetes. How lifestyle modification play a key role in the management of both type of diabetes along with pharmacotherapy.

In Guatemala, the prevalence of diabetes continues to increase with a disproportionate burden falling on indigenous rural communities. In this study, we assessed barriers to making dietary modifications for people living with type 2 diabetes in a rural indigenous Guatemalan population. Structed interviews (n=32) were conducted with participants selected from a convenience sample of adults with type 2 diabetes living in villages in and around San Lucas Tolimán, Guatemala. Frequencies were calculated for closed-ended questions and content analysis was used to evaluate open-ended questions. Most participants (81%) were women with low-levels of formal education and average daily food expenditure of just over $1 USD. The majority of participants were able to identify foods important in a diabetic diet, however, with significant barriers to making dietary modifications. Commonly cited perceived barriers included high costs of food due to travel and storage, inadequate local access to fresh fruits and vegetables and incompatibility with traditional diet. Several structural and cultural barriers exist to prevent dietary modifications for people living with type 2 diabetes in this rural indigenous population.

Dibasic Amino Acids

Cystinuria is a relatively rare autosomal recessive disorder that manifests early in life and is associated with the development of kidney stones composed of cystine. It is due to mutations in two genes that are involved in the transport of cystine, neutral, and dibasic amino acids in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Patients are at risk for developing chronic kidney disease. Diagnosis is typically established with stone analysis and quantitative urinary cystine excretion. These patients may form extremely large stones requiring percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Stone-prevention strategies include dietary modifications (increased fluid intake and limitation of sodium and animal protein consumption), urine pH manipulation, and thiol-binding agents. These patients should be followed closely, and preemptive stone removal with ureteroscopy should be considered to limit the necessity for more invasive procedures.   This review contains 2 figures and 38 references.

Observations on the deleterious effects of a totally vegetarian diet in infancy are reported and the difficulties encountered in the prevention of nutritional deficiencies in a vegan religious community are discussed. Twenty-five infants of this community who were seen at the hospital showed evidence of protein-calorie malnutrition, iron- and vitamin B12-deficient anemia, rickets, zinc deficiency, and multiple recurrent infections. Evidence of growth retardation was also found in 47 infants seen at the local mother-child health (well-baby) clinic. Samples of breast milk showed low levels of carbohydrate (1.6 to 3.5 gm/100 ml), protein (0.8 to 1.4 gm/100 ml), and fat (2.4 to 4.1 gm/100 ml). The main constituent of the infants' diet after the age of 3 months ( a "soya milk" prepared at the community's central kitchen) was extremely dilute with a very low calorific value (13.7 kcal/100 ml). Persistent attempts to find dietary modifications that would satisfy both the vegan philosophy and also the recommended dietary allowances failed. This problem represents a scientific and medicosocial challenge to pediatricians and nutritionists.

Background: Childhood obesity is a major public health threat. Various school-based interventions (SBIs) to prevent obesity through physical activity and/or dietary modifications were implemented. However, the effectiveness of such SBIs remains unproven. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of SBIs. Methods: We searched for RCTs of SBIs published since 1990. To be eligible studies had to have an RCT design, to include children aged 6-18 years and SBIs were defined as non-pharmacological and non-surgical interventions carried out in a school setting with a minimum duration of 12 weeks. The primary outcome was change in body mass index (BMI. For each study the difference in the mean change in BMI between the intervention and the control groups was computed. The summary estimate for the difference in mean change in BMI and the 95% confidence interval (CI) was computed using a weighted inverse variance approach and a random- effects model. The I 2 statistic was used to test for heterogeneity. Results: Of 504 studies identified, 41 involving 42 430 participants met the inclusion criteria. SBIs varied greatly between studies by type, duration and delivery. In 10 RCTs the SBI focused on physical activity, in 6 on dietary modifications and in 25 on both physical activity and dietary modifications. SBIs duration ranged from 12 weeks to 4 years. There was no significant difference in mean BMI change between the intervention and the control groups (mean difference = -0.281kg/m 2 ; 95% CI -0.584 to 0.022), although there was significant heterogeneity between the RCTs’ findings (Figure). We found also no consistent impact on other measures of adiposity, physical activity patterns, dietary intakes and psychosocial health and wellbeing. Conclusions: SBIs had no substantial impact on BMI in children aged 6-18 years. Further research is needed to identify effective interventions to prevent childhood obesity.
