Can You Reverse Diabetes with Exercise?

How to Live More Physically Active

All adults, especially people with type 2 diabetes, should live more physically active and reduce sedentary time. After 30 to 60 minutes of sitting, you should try doing some light activities to reduce blood glucose. A sedentary lifestyle involving sitting, lying, desk work, or TV viewing, may affect your cardiometabolic health. Studies have found a link between a high amount of sedentary time and increased rate of mortality. In those who are at risk or with type 2 diabetes, prolonged sitting may also increase the risk of clustered metabolic risk and lower glycemic control. Therefore, try to break down a working session by light walking or some light exercises to benefit your health. [9]
