We all know the benefits of regular, moderate exercise. By making the heart and lungs work harder, it increases your general fitness, and it makes you look and feel good. It's a great stress-reliever, too. However, exercise has special benefits for people with diabetes. It helps reduce weight important in controlling non-insulin dependent diabetes. It also boosts circulation and can combat the narrowing of blood vessels, which contributes to diabetes complications.
Lack of exercise is emerging more and more strongly as a trigger for non-insulin dependent diabetes. It's thought our sedentary lifestyle is a prime facto in the modern epidemic of this type of diabetes. Regular exercise boosts your body's response to your own insulin allowing it to work more effectively. It's not only a treatment for non-insulin dependent diabetes, it may actually prevent it developing in the first place.
With all that going for exercise, there's no sense sitting around get that body working.
