Exercise keeps you away from diabetes

 Exercise treatment offers several advantages.

"Diabetes necessitates exercise; you may move it without touching it," Mr. He of Ezhou, Hubei, explained. He is a type 2 diabetic patient. His fasting blood sugar and blood lipids have dropped due to dietary changes and medication, but they remain higher than usual. He insisted on doing Tai Chi in the morning, and his weakness gradually faded, as did the agony of frozen shoulder. His blood sugar and cholesterol levels were normal five months later. His blood sugar had stayed normal for more than two years after the medicine was totally discontinued.

Which diabetics may exercise safely?

There are three sorts of diabetes people who benefit from the most effective exercise therapy. The first category includes patients with mild to moderate type 2 diabetes, particularly those who are obese; the second category includes type 1 diabetes patients whose condition has improved after diet control and drug treatment; and the third category includes patients with mild vascular disease, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and other diabetes comorbidities.

Diabetics should engage in aerobic activity three to five times per week for 30 to 60 minutes each session. It is recommended that you sweat somewhat after exercise, feel minor exhaustion but do not breathe, and have a heart rate of roughly 120 beats per minute.

Blood glucose is at its peak 1 to 2 hours after a meal, and exercise is the best way to help blood sugar convert swiftly. The workout approach may be determined by each individual's physical strength, interests, location, and weather conditions. Patients can include exercise into their everyday lives by walking or cycling to work.

Walk briskly for 5 minutes, then gently for 5 minutes, then briskly for 5 minutes, in this order. Brisk walking can be 120 to 150 steps per minute for slightly obese people in good physical condition; for those who are not too fat, brisk walking can be 110 to 115 steps per minute. The aged and infirm can only walk at a moderate pace of 90 to 100 steps per minute. You can begin by exercising for half an hour per day and gradually progress to one hour per day, which can be done twice a day in the morning and evening.
