Diabetes Exercise is good?

Generally speaking, exercise for diabetic patients is good, because in diabetes control, there are two cornerstones involved in a non-drug treatment, one is diet control, and the second is exercise. Therefore, for diabetic patients, it is good to do moderate exercise, but this moderate exercise refers to moderate exercise for diabetes. We normally refer to mild to moderate aerobic exercise. What is called light and moderate aerobic exercise, such as fast walking, jogging, Tai Chi, swimming, these non-intense exercises, are a relatively good aerobic exercise, from a professional point of view, it has a calculation formula. For example, like 170 minus age, is the diabetic exercise, the heart rate achieved, is a simple calculation method. Of course, we should also consider the patient's situation. For example, an elderly person with coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, and stent release, then the amount of such exercise should be appropriately reduced. Because intense exercise may induce the occurrence of coronary heart disease, in general, diabetic patients are suitable for exercise, but it should be moderate and not excessive.
