A lifestyle intervention focused on weight loss and increasing physical activity should be considered as additional treatment to prevent advanced kidney disease in overweight or obese people with Type 2 diabetes, say researchers.

The team found that an intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) reduced the incidence of very-high-risk chronic kidney disease (CKD) in these patients by 31% compared with those who received diabetes support and education (DSE).
