Type 2 Diabetes, Exercise and Insulin
In my case, I found that badminton and tennis also kept my blood pressure readings lower and the muscles taut and strong. Weight was no problem. The medical community is just beginning to learn what I have known all these years: Exercise in badminton (uses more muscle groups than any other sport) and tennis keep you healthy mentally, and physically, and has the added benefit of keeping you off expensive prescription drugs. Now, just because these men found that exercise alone improved these features of their health — doesn’t mean you should go out and drink beer, eat ice cream, a hot dog and some French fries. One of my thin relatives died while reaching in the freezer for a half-gallon of ice cream.
It is the whole body that we are concerned with and that includes vital signs-- blood pressure, weight, lipid profile, strength, and social and mental health. That is a comprehensive approach that I call Nutrition-Based-Regimen with exercise in social-recreational activities that brings the blood pressure down. (If you finish your game with a higher blood pressure than when you went on the court, then you’re defeating your purpose).
"Make Eating A Lifestyle Change" involves a total approach to living--involving mind, body and spirit while using your intelligence to fight the war against disease and then practicing self-discipline in the way you eat, play, socialize and deal with everyday stress.
