Exercise and the Diabetic Patient
Posted by admin in Prescription Diabetes Drugs on October 08th, 2009
If you’re diabetic and suffer from nerve pain, there is hope. It has been proven that exercise slows nerve damage in the patient. If you haven’t had much exercise for a while, do something that is comfortable and enjoyable. You want it to be an activity that you wake up and look forward to, not one that you dread. Start slow and increase how long you do it, little by little. The idea here is to make it a habit. A very good one at that.
Exercise not only helps slow nerve damage but also helps in controlling blood sugar levels, provides cardiovascular fitness that protects against heart and artery disease, and aides in helping you to feel good both physically and mentally. If you’re overweight, any amount of exercise will assist you in weight loss. The recommended activity level per day is thirty minutes. However, starting at ten or fifteen minutes and working up to the thirty-minute goal if a good place to start your program out.
Kickboxing, aerobics, biking, racquetball… these are all fun activities, while giving your body a much need workout in order to maintain a healthy heart and nervous system. Find something you enjoy and getting out to do it will be a pleasure not a pain.
It is always a good idea to check with your doctor before starting any exercise program to make sure you’re ready for the plunge. If he clears you for a ‘go’, don’t let anything stop you. Start walking your way to better health.
