Exercise is one of the most effective ways to lower and regulate blood sugar. When you move your body, muscles use more glucose for energy, which helps bring levels down.
Benefits of exercise for blood sugar:
- Increases insulin sensitivity
- Helps muscles absorb glucose without needing as much insulin
- Prevents post-meal spikes
- Supports weight management
Best exercises for blood sugar control:
- Walking after meals
- Cycling or swimming
- Strength training to build muscle
- Yoga or tai chi for stress management (stress can raise blood sugar)
Tips for safe exercise:
- Check blood sugar before and after workouts
- Carry a small snack in case of low blood sugar
- Stay consistent—regular activity has long-lasting benefits
👉 Even 30 minutes a day of moderate exercise can make a big difference in blood sugar control.
