Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has reached epidemic proportions globally, imposing a significant burden on healthcare systems and individuals. This review delves into the multifaceted nature of T2DM, examining its primary risk factors, including obesity, physical inactivity, and unhealthy dietary patterns. The synergistic interplay of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors in T2DM pathogenesis is explored. Effective prevention strategies, such as weight management, regular exercise, and dietary interventions, are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the paper emphasizes the importance of early detection and comprehensive management of T2DM to mitigate its associated complications. By elucidating the complex etiology and offering evidence-based strategies for prevention and management, this review aims to contribute to the global efforts in combating the T2DM epidemic.
