A 20-min walk post-breakfast reduces postprandial hyperglycaemia in Early (0700 h) and Delayed (1200 h) conditions.
Encouraging a short walk after breakfast may help manage blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
There was a small effect of the 20-min walk on lowering 2-h post-breakfast iAUC for Early (d = 0.35) and Delayed (d = 0.37).
Why this rating
Based on a randomised controlled trial design.
