"Eating almonds can help ward off insulin resistance (a red flag for diabetes), according to a 2010 study in the Journal of American College of Nutrition. When people with prediabetes ate 2 ounces of almonds (about two handfuls) each day for 16 weeks, they experienced a 23 percent drop in fasting insulin levels, while those who said no to nuts saw a 19 percent increase. The credit goes to oleic acid, a fat that triggers the release of GLP-1, a peptide that can improve insulin sensitivity." (Source: Laura Roberson, "Your Healthiest Year Ever! Fight Diabetes."

"For each 10 percent increase in muscle mass percentage…there was an 11 percent reduction in insulin resistance and a 12 percent decrease in pre-diabetes, says study author Preethi Srikanthan, M.D." (Source: Kasey Panetta August 3, 2011, "Sit on This Bench, Prevent Diabetes" Men's Health News, retrieved from: http://news.menshealth.com/avoid-diabetes-like-arnold/2011/08/03/)
"In a study of 3,615 men and women with normal blood sugar levels at the start of the study, those who reported that they drank more than 34 ounces of water a day were 21% less likely to develop hyperglycemia over the next nine years than those who said they drank 16 ounces or less daily."

According to Ronan Roussel, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of medicine at the Hospital Bichat in Paris: "When you're dehydrated, your body signals for an increase in the hormone vasopressin, which causes blood sugar production in your liver to increase."
