Exercise is one of the most effective ways to reduce and manage risks for type 2 diabetes. But how do we do it right?
After all, there can be many hidden consequences to exacerbate the symptoms for certain exercises, like:
❌ prolonged anaerobic exercises (with an absense of oxygen, like heavy lifting and sprinting) can lead to drastic drops in blood sugar levels later in the day;
❌ exercises with repetitive stress on the feet can increase risks with neuropathy, especially if feet numbness is a regular symptom;
❌ exercises that raise blood pressure (held isometric exercises) can also be dangerous if any cardiovascular conditions are present.
A custom exercise plan should be created based on the health conditions. Ginkgo Active's AI platform always provides a safe and effective exercise prescription, no matter what the unique health concerns are. Find it in the App Store today to begin your health journey today!
