AND if they eat right? Can exercise and healthy diets help people with diabetes? Or will the disease always be there, just to a lesser extent?

Hello Jared,
Well, if you already had diabetes, good diet and exercise will, as you say, lessen the effects of diabetes. But to answer your original question, "can somebody who exercises everyday get diabetes?", the answer is unfortunately, yes.
This is because diabetes, type 2 to be exact, can be genetically passed through the genes. For instance, if one of your parent is diabetic, the chances for you to become diabetic is 33%. But if you exercise and have good eating habits, this can reduce the risk, although not erasing it completely. There’s a lot of factor in determining if you’re going to be diabetic or not, but keeping a good healthy lifestyle will help you to beat the risk.
Yes. Anyone can get diabetes at any time.
It HELPS that you get plenty of exercise and eat right, but the fact is you may be one of those people who are "predisposed" to getting diabetes.
To reassure yourself, have the doctor do an A1C test, and discuss the results with you. The A1C test is quick, easy, and fairly cheap.
There is NO CURE for diabetes. It can only be controlled. Once you have diabetes, it takes a life-long commitment to keep it under control.
yes..maybe it will prevent type 2 but type 1 cant be prevented with exercise.. =O
No, in case if you are not a diabetic patient. But if you are already a diabetic patient then you can control your sugar level by doing exercise and eating proper food.
But exercise even can’t control type 1 diabetes. Its purely depend on the insulin. But type 2 can be control or protect before it comes by exercising and proper diet.
There are a lot of myths out there about diabetes – I recently wrote about the most common ones on my blog at – http://buzz.prevention.com/community/emily09/diabetes-awareness-month The site I referenced has some great information about diabetes
