That is why I wrote the words "Basically (and I mean "basic" because that is all I understand) thereare two diabetes related things that happen when we exercise".I may be wrong, but I’m not sure that is entirely accurate. Although it’s commonly thought to be true, my understanding is that this perceived effect is brought about by muscle tissue being able to utilise glucose without the aid of insulin. In essence, any activity that requires even mildly strenuous use of skeletal muscle sucks up glucose like a sponge, irrespective of how much or how little insulin may be circulating at the time.
Obviously this would seem to materialise as increased insulin sensitivity, but in reality I think it’s just the body burning off glucose. Having said that, I guess it’s logical to argue that burning off glucose in cells does increases their ability to accept more from the blood, thus effectively increasing sensitivity. Hmmmm. Interesting.
I find this easier to understand than lots of scientific sounding explanation the impact is the same.
I believe it is important to communicate in a language which is easy to understand.
