Today is , a reminder that there are 8 billion reasons to act, because obesity affects us all. With 4 billion people projected to be living with overweight and obesity by 2035, the impact on type 2 diabetes, health systems and communities is global. Rising childhood obesity is driving early diabetes and widening inequalities. Let’s prioritise prevention, tackle stigma, and improve access to care.

Current research supports the idea that remission of type 2 diabetes is increasingly achievable.

A 2023 study published in Diabetes Care showed that an intensive low-energy total diet replacement program in Australian primary care led to diabetes remission at 1 year in about half of the participants with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes, with higher remission rates tracking with greater weight loss. Meanwhile, a September 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis in the same journal pooled 18 nonsurgical randomized controlled trials and found that structured interventions, particularly those producing substantial weight loss, consistently achieved clinically meaningful remission rates. https://mdsc.pe/3ONf464
