In a study published in the European Journal of General Practice, researchers examined the effects of lifestyle on the emotional well-being of male and female diabetics. The goal was to uncover associations that can help in creating new strategies to manage and improve both lifestyle and Type 2 diabetes.
Because of these findings, the researchers concluded that there is a positive but non-clinically relevant association between physical activity and the emotional well-being of both men and women patients with Type 2 diabetes. Meanwhile, there is a negative but non-clinically relevant association between excessive alcohol use and smoking and the emotional well-being of men and women patients with Type 2 diabetes respectively.
