Health News : Researchers suggested that instead of sitting or lying down after having lunch or dinner, taking a light walk for 2 to 5 minutes can improve blood sugar levels. Apart from this, even if you stand for a while after eating, the blood sugar level can decrease. Whenever you eat something - especially eating food rich in high carbohydrates, the blood sugar level in the body starts increasing suddenly. This is known as postprandial spike.
Sudden increase in blood sugar level in the body releases a hormone called insulin, which sends glucose to the cells through the blood so that it can be used for energy. But this balance between blood sugar level and insulin is very delicate and can also go out of control. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, if there is a continuous increase in the blood sugar level in the body, then the cells can stop responding to insulin and become insulin resistant. Which can cause pre-diabetic or type 2 diabetes. In such a situation, the author of this new study says that if you take a light walk for some time after eating, then it can reduce the blood sugar level, which can reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease. Researchers found that instead of sitting after eating, walking or standing for some time can reduce the level of postprandial glucose.
But, according to the author of this study, light walking can prove to be very beneficial, it also improves the level of insulin after eating food. In the end, researchers have suggested that light walking after eating food not only reduces the blood sugar level, but also keeps the insulin level fine. Apart from this, the author of this study also said that walking for a short while throughout the day can also prove to be very beneficial. Buffet also said that if possible, reduce your sitting time throughout the day. If your work is to be done sitting, then get up every 20 to 30 minutes and walk a little. Managing blood sugar level is very important to reduce the risk of diabetes. At the same time, even if you have diabetes problem, it is very important to maintain blood sugar level so that you do not have to face vision loss, heart attack, stroke and kidney disease due to this.
Laura Hieronimus, Vice President of Health Care Programs for the American Diabetes Association, said that managing blood sugar levels can help you avoid diabetes-related problems in the future. Laura also said that maintaining blood sugar levels throughout the day also boosts energy levels.(Agency)
