Actually,
the human body is designed to move a lot, but the ease in modern times
makes us even more sedentary lifestyle and has passive.
No wonder so many diseases related to poor lifestyle continues to increase, one diabetes. Some of that increase risk of diabetes include being overweight, never exercise, and blood sugar levels above normal.
One way to reduce the risk of diabetes is constantly active. If you do not have a reasonable time to exercise, physical activity adjust to circumstances. For example, by taking breaks every 30 minutes or so to walk for two minutes.
According to the latest research from the University of Otago in New Zealand, a routine walk in between office hours effectively reduce the risk of diabetes. In fact it is more effective than doing brisk 30 minutes before leaving for work.
In this study, respondents who walk around for a minute 40 seconds have blood sugar and insulin levels lower. An increase in blood sugar and insulin levels is a red light for the onset of diabetes.
This study used 70 healthy adults as respondents. In the first treatment, respondents sat for 9 hours. In the second treatment, the respondents do brisk walking for 1.5 hours before sitting for 9 hours.At last treatment responders sit again for 9 hours, but this time running for 1 minute 40 seconds every 30 minutes.
The respondents also underwent measurement of blood sugar and insulin each time respondents consume meal replacement drink after one hour, four hours, and 7 hours.
This test is called postprandial could indicate how much sugar the body absorbs from food.
The results showed that blood sugar levels were lower in the group of respondents who do walk breaks every 30 minutes. Similar results were also obtained in those runs for 1.5 hours before sitting for 9 hours.
"Activity pause regularly is more effective than continuous physical activity to lower blood sugar and insulin levels, especially in healthy adults with normal weight," the researchers wrote.
