1. Exercise Regularly

Regular exercise can help you lose weight and increase insulin sensitivity.

Increased insulin sensitivity means your cells are better able to use the available sugar in your bloodstream. 

Exercise also helps your muscles use blood sugar for energy and muscle contraction. 

If you have problems with blood sugar control, you should routinely check your levels. This will help you learn how you respond to different activities and keep your blood sugar levels from getting either too high or too low (2). 

Good forms of exercise include weight lifting, brisk walking, running, biking, dancing, hiking, swimming and more.

BOTTOM LINE:Exercise increases insulin sensitivity and helps your muscles pick up sugars from the blood. This can lead to reduced blood sugar levels.

Complete each exercise 8 times before moving to the next
one.
