Diabetics and exercise


Official URL: https://www.nst.com.my/

Abstract

Exercise is not only safe but highly recommended as part of your treatment for diabetes and hypertension, together with diet control and lifestyle changes.

You should exercise for 150 minutes per week in moderate intensity (such as brisk walking) or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity (such as jogging), if your condition allows it.

Exercise will increase insulin sensitivity and improve blood glucose control. It will also help lower your blood pressure. It will also prevent heart disease and improve your overall wellbeing.
