"Diabetes" I think everyone should have heard of, this disease in the eyes of ordinary people, seems to be a very simple metabolic disease, its symptoms are just a high blood sugar, as long as the drug control blood sugar can be.
As everyone knows, diabetes is a group of lifelong metabolic diseases caused by multiple factors and characterized by high blood sugar!
Moreover, the terrible thing about diabetes is never the high blood sugar itself, but the various complications based on high blood sugar.
According to WHO authoritative data and survey statistics, diabetes-related complications reached more than 100 kinds, which is the most known complication of a disease, it will cause harm to the kidneys, heart and brain, nervous system and blood circulation, feet and eyes and other organs and tissues, so patients need to actively control blood sugar treatment.
However, the control of blood sugar is far more simple than medication. Because the emergence of diabetes involves many aspects such as genetics, unhealthy lifestyles and eating styles, especially obesity caused by long-term unhealthy diets and lifestyles, it is an independent risk factor for the emergence of diabetes.
Therefore, blood sugar control needs to be carried out comprehensively, which includes three major aspects: medication treatment, adjustment of life and dietary status, and active exercise.
So the question is, what exercise methods are suitable for diabetics?
1. Walk
WHO has made it clear that walking is the best exercise and the preferred exercise for people with diabetes. Continuous walking exercise can improve the sensitivity of muscles and cells to insulin, and enhance the body's ability to regulate insulin.
Moreover, insisting on walking exercise can also play a role in losing weight, so that weight gradually returns to a normal state, which has certain benefits for blood sugar control, whether it is type 1 or type 2 diabetes patients, you can choose to walk and exercise.
However, we should pay attention to the fact that walking exercise is not equal to violent walking, and it is necessary to master the frequency and time of walking. Clinically it is recommended that the number of steps per minute of walking should be controlled at about 120 steps, and the time of each walking exercise should be about 30-45 minutes;
2. Jogging
Jogging is also the best aerobic exercise program, which can speed up the body's metabolism, improve the sensitivity of cells to insulin, and lose weight better. However, jogging is closely related to physical fitness, and if sugar friends have combined cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetic foot and other problems, it is not suitable for jogging.
Even sugar friends who do not have complications need to consider the field problem before jogging, and it is best to feel that the body does not feel excessive fatigue each jogging. Patients should be gradual and should not rush into action;
3. Swimming
Swimming is not only a personal hobby, it is actually a swimming exercise, swimming can consume a lot of fat, but also can improve the sensitivity of cells to insulin, alleviate the symptoms of insulin resistance.
Moreover, swimming is an exercise for all ages, whether it is young and middle-aged or elderly diabetics, you can choose this program for exercise.
Written at the end: Although diabetics need exercise, they cannot exercise excessively, and patients with serious complications also need to consult a doctor to see if they are suitable for exercise. In addition, in order to avoid the emergence of hypoglycemia problems, sugar friends should eat first 1 hour before exercise, let the blood sugar start exercising after a stable state, and exercise should be gradual.
