Well, if you think you are, then take the Presidents sports award /diabetic challenge. Many diabetics don't think that exercise of any sort will help with the developing complications. Often they claim that it's too painful to walk and stand. That is due to neuropathy setting in, and out of control blood sugars. Research has shown that by doing an extra little bit of exercise daily or at least three times a week, you can increase glucose useage, loose weight, increase circulation, and overall improve your helath. Exercise releases endorphins that may make you feel positive! And what could be wrong with that.
Many older diabetic simply refuse to acknowledge their own diabetes, and denial of their condition is why so many have complications. Following the ADA diet, sleep and exercise routine helps ALL diabetics to live a longer healthier and happier life.
