Diabetes is a serious disease for which there is no permanent cure. This means that if someone has got diabetes, it does not leave him behind for life. Diabetes has become a common disease due to poor routine and diet. Diabetes can be controlled only by a healthy diet and physical activity. Big research has come to the fore regarding diabetes patients. Research has revealed that walking for a while after eating food can reduce blood sugar level to a great extent. In this research, published in the journal Sports Medicine, researchers analyzed seven different studies on how light physical activities, such as standing and walking, instead of sitting for long periods, affected heart health, including insulin and blood sugar levels.

Researchers suggested that instead of sitting or lying down after having lunch or dinner, taking a light walk for 2 to 5 minutes can keep the blood sugar level under control to a great extent. Apart from this, even if you stand for some time after eating, the blood sugar level can also decrease.

Aidan Buffet, the author of this study, told the Health website, 'Light activities prove to be very beneficial for your health.'

Whenever you eat something – especially high carbohydrate food, there is a sudden rise in the blood sugar level in the body. This is known as the postprandial spike. A sudden increase in the blood sugar level in the body triggers the release of a hormone called insulin, which sends glucose through the bloodstream into the cells so that it can be used for energy. But this balance between blood sugar level and insulin is very delicate and can get out of control. If the blood sugar level in the body continues to rise too much, the cells may stop responding to insulin and become insulin resistant. Which can lead to pre-diabetic or type 2 diabetes.

In such a situation, the author of this new study says that if you walk lightly for some time after eating food, then it can reduce the level of blood sugar.

Researchers found that postprandial glucose levels can be reduced by walking or standing for a while instead of sitting after a meal. But, according to the authors of this study, light walking can prove to be very beneficial, it also improves the level of insulin after eating a meal. Apart from this, the author of this study also said that even walking for a while throughout the day can prove to be very beneficial.

Buffet also says to reduce the amount of time you sit throughout the day, if possible. If your work has to be done sitting, then get up every 20 to 30 minutes and walk a little.
