Regular exercise is important for everyone, but especially so if you have diabetes. Physical activity combined with healthy eating and any diabetes medication that you might be taking will help you manage your diabetes and prevent long-term diabetes complications.
If you haven’t been very active lately, start with a 25-30 everyday. Steadily add more time into this regimen to finally perform approximately 200 minutes of moderate intense exercise per week which includes walking, jogging, swimming, skipping and cycling.
Physical activity does not necessarily mean spending hours at the gym or running for miles. You can choose an activity that you enjoy like sports or try a new activity dancing, aerobics or yoga. Making exercise a daily routine will help you to control diabetes easily.
