Exercise is extremely essential in both the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes, especially given the fact that 90% of individuals with type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese. Besides being a key method for weight loss/control, exercising muscles take up excess sugar in the bloodstream reducing the overall need for insulin.

This is important in two ways:

1. If you have diabetes and don't need insulin, regular exercise will keep you off of it.

2. If you have diabetes and need insulin, exercise can help reduce your daily dosage requirements.
