This Evidence Check report comprises eight brief ‘headline’ reviews. The reviews summarise the best available evidence for a range of chronic disease prevention strategies, with a focus on diet and physical activity interventions to prevent type 2 diabetes onset. The reviews consider different settings, the impact of intensity of intervention and follow-up, and the cost-effectiveness of programs.
