Influence of Lifestyle on Incident Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus

TL;DR: Greater adherence to an overall healthy lifestyle is associated with a substantially lower risk of CVD incidence and CVD mortality among adults with type 2 diabetes and these findings further support the tremendous benefits of adopting a healthy lifestyle in reducing the subsequent burden of cardiovascular complications in patients with T2D.
