Sports help prevent diabetes with every minute

A recent study from Leiden University in the Netherlands has found that increasing moderate to vigorous physical activity significantly reduces the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Over a follow-up period of approximately 8 years, it was observed that adults under the age of 63 who engage in more than 409 minutes of exercise per week decrease their risk by more than half compared to those with low activity levels. For older adults (63 years and above), the likelihood of developing diabetes increases by 65% when physical activity levels are low. Health guidelines recommend engaging in 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise weekly, such as brisk walking and running, as these activities play an important role in preventing and managing type 2 diabetes, with the impact varying depending on age, gender, and underlying health conditions. The study also showed that exercising later in the day contributes to a 10% reduction in risk compared to morning workouts.
