Study Shows Treating Depression May Help Protect Against Type 2 Diabetes By Salynn Boyles WebMD Health News Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD June 8, 2009 -- Treating depression improves insulin resistance in patients at risk for type 2 diabetes, a new study shows. The research strongly suggests that depression is a direct risk factor for type 2 diabetes and that treating depression may protect against the disease. The link between depression and diabetes has long been recognized, with some studies showing people with type 2 diabetes have twice the risk for depression as the general population. But it has not been clear if lifestyle factors associated with both depression and type 2 diabetes -- such as being overweight, poor nutrition, and lack of exercise -- explain the association. While these factors are important, the new research adds to the evidence that biological as well as lifestyle factors contribute to type 2 diabetes, researcher Julie Wagner, PhD, of the University of Connecticut Health Center, tells WebMD. Wagner's study was presented Saturday at a meeting of the American Diabetes Association in New Orleans. "Insulin resistance is the hallmark of type 2 diabetes, and this study shows that treating depression is associated with improved insulin resistance," Wagner tells WebMD .
