If you have type 2 diabetes it would be a good idea to walk an extra 45 minutes each day, a new study shows that exercise can keep the blood sugar levels under control, thus limiting the effects of this terrible disease. Type 2 diabetes is a non-insulin-dependent disease that can be managed through dietary modifications, physical exercise, and medication, usually occurring in adult individuals.

Doing this simple walking, people will have a better ability of burning fats and storing sugar, which translates into an improvement of the effects of the disease several weeks after. Statistics indicate that about 2.3 million people in the UK suffer from diabetes, the type 2 form being responsible for 90 percent of this number. Although it can be treated without the necessity of insulin, the type 2 form, just like type 1 diabetes, may often require medication involving this hormone.
