Studies Highlight Benefits of Frequent Movement and Post-Meal Activity for Blood Sugar Control
Recent insights suggest that managing blood sugar effectively involves more than traditional exercise or diet alone. A study highlighted by Dr. Austin Perlmutter found that brief bouts of bodyweight squats every 45 minutes during prolonged sitting better regulate blood sugar than a single 30-minute walk. Additionally, experts recommend gentle post-meal activities like a 10-15 minute walk and remaining upright to support digestion and glucose control, especially important given India's high diabetes prevalence.
