Regular physical activity reduces the incidence of type 2 diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake.
To prevent or manage type 2 diabetes, aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise like brisk walking or biking each week. This can reduce your risk of developing diabetes by up to 40%. Combine this with a healthy diet and a goal of losing 7% of your body weight for the best results.
