Lifestyle Intervention for Adults With Diabetes

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

In brief

Physical activity is the cornerstone of good diabetes management, and yet effective physical activity intervention is not available. The investigators developed a lifestyle intervention based on individual's home activity patterns. The goal of the study is to test the efficacy of this intervention among older adults with diabetes. In addition to physical activity, the investigators will also assess if the intervention will improve social participation.
