1. Control of blood glucose levels: Glucose is the source of energy in our body. Physical activity utilizes the glucose and helps to reduce the blood glucose levels. Physical activity also decreases the insulin resistance. A few studies have also indicated that activity increases the insulin receptors in the red blood cells. All this together helps to keep the glycosylated hemoglobin (three-month average of blood glucose levels) levels normal. 2. Improved cardiovascular function: Individuals with type II diabetes are more prone to cardiovascular diseases (hardening of arteries, heart attack, and stroke). Exercise increases the cardio-respiratory fitness by  Lowering the blood pressure, Lowering the bad cholesterol (triglyceride) And increasing the good cholesterol (HDL). 3. Psychological benefit: Physical activity is associated with an increased sense of well-being,a positive attitude and improved quality of life. 4. Weight control: Physical activity helps obese/overweight individuals to lose weight and also helps them to maintain a healthy BMI. |
