The Ornish diet is a good option for preventing or controlling diabetes, experts concluded. It’s low in saturated fat and cholesterol, which matches the guidelines of the American Diabetes Association, and it has been found to lower A1C level in diabetics, a positive signal of better control over blood sugar.

Preventing and controlling diabetes isn’t the strongest suit for Weight Watchers, which earned its lowest score, just above average, in this category. The experts said there’s no good evidence that the program staves off or blunts the chronic disease. Nevertheless, Weight Watchers’ effectiveness as a weight-loss diet could work for diabetes prevention and management as well. 

Jenny Craig

Being overweight is a risk factor for diabetes, so any diet that helps shed pounds could also help ward off the chronic disease. Those who sign up for the program’s Jenny Craig Type 2 track will work with a counselor who is knowledgeable about the disease and can help customize the plan. Still, the diet did not impress experts who rated it as a regimen for preventing and controlling diabetes. Their scores put Jenny Craig behind many competitors.

Mediterranean Diet

Experts gave this diet relatively high marks when it comes to preventing or controlling diabetes. Research suggests a healthy Mediterranean-style diet can reverse the metabolic syndrome, a group of risk factors that can lead to diabetes
