Afternoon Exercise Can Help With Type 2 Diabetes!

Looking to control your blood glucose levels and manage your Type 2 diabetes? Exercise might just be the solution you're looking for! But with so many different types of exercise and approaches out there, it can be tough to know where to start. Luckily, a recent study has identified some key parameters that can help guide your exercise routine, including the benefits of aerobics versus weightlifting, the optimal time of day for exercise, and whether to exercise before or after meals.

 

The study found that habitual aerobic exercise, such as cycling, swimming, and walking, is great for managing blood glucose levels. Resistance exercise, which involves working your muscles using an opposing force like dumbbells or resistance bands, is also beneficial for those with Type 2 diabetes as it improves insulin sensitivity. And if you're someone who spends a lot of time sitting down, breaking up your sitting time with movement throughout the day can really help control blood glucose and insulin levels.

 

But when should you be exercising? The study found that exercising later in the day can actually result in better control of blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity. And if you're wondering whether you have to lose weight to see the benefits of exercise, the answer is no! Exercise can lower body fat and increase muscle mass, both of which are beneficial for managing Type 2 diabetes.

 

So if you're one of the 537 million people living with Type 2 diabetes, don't wait any longer to start incorporating exercise into your routine. By doing so, you'll be improving your insulin sensitivity and helping your body use blood glucose more effectively, which can lower blood sugar and prevent serious health problems.
