Well I assume you mean type 2. And that doesn't usually set in till after 40. And it's usually hereditary. Common sense applies. Exercise, maintain a healthy wait. Eat lots of vegetables. Go easy on the carbs. Your genetics are going to play the biggest factor. But being healthy will keep it at bay. I know this because it runs in my family. I didn't eat healthy most of my life, didn't exercise regularly. I went to the doctor and he told me I was in the pre-diabetic range 6.0-6.5 A1c. So I started watching what I was eating. Exercised everyday and within 7 months I had lowered it to 5.1
I'm not on anything yet. But if I start eating junk and not exercising it creeps back up. I don't think I did myself any favors for age 20 to 40 with the way I treated my body. But I do think it was inevitable.
Just take care of yourself. Eat well, exercise, get quality sleep. That's good advice for anyone.

Have you considered a low carb diet?

Talk to your doctor and Google your question too.
