Background: Diabetic nephropathy is a leading cause of chronic kidney disease, and early intervention is very important to prevent the progression of the disease.
Case Presentation: A 65-year-old male patient who is a known case of type 2 diabetes mellitus from 10 years and nephropathy from 1 year underwent intensive lifestyle modification, including caloric restriction, high-intensity interval training, and stress management, alongside medication.
Results: After 6 months of following the advice, significant improvements were observed: HbA1c decreased from 10.5% to 6.5%, eGFR increased from 45 to 60 ml/min/1.73m, proteinuria reduced from 2.5 to 0.5 g/day, and blood pressure normalized.
Conclusion: This case demonstrates the potential for intensive lifestyle intervention to reverse diabetic nephropathy, highlighting the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing diabetes and preventing renal complications.
