None of us really if we think about it, want to end up getting diabetes but the problem with the lifestyles that we tend to live these days. It’s becoming very commonplace there are probably two reasons for this the amount of exercise we do or don’t do. And the amount of sugar that is in our foods.

For some people who struggle with doing exercise three times a week, for 30 minutes a day or at push 20 minutes a day.Then what you are about to read will come as a bit of a relief.

Researchers have found that you can get by with under 10 minutes of exercise and that is each week, according to what the study found. Current conventional thinking suggests that we exercise for 30 minutes three times a week or five at a push.

This has been proven that exercising for 30 minutes three times a week, will help with heart health, cholesterol levels and insulin resistance. What with the hectic pace of modern life a lot of people aren’t able to commit to this schedule of exercise every week.

During the study the researchers conducting it, had 16 men who were aged in their early 20s, they were instructed to exercise in six sessions, these were broken down into four and six high-intensity sprints. They also drank a solution of glucose to see what effect it had on their blood sugar levels.

This was primarily to see how high they stayed, with elevated blood sugar levels, they found that after two weeks the blood sugar levels of the participants were decreased by a factor of 12 percent, and duration wise went up by a further 37 percent. The thing to remember with this is it was high intensity exercise. Previous studies beforehand have shown that moderate exercise doesn’t normally affect blood sugar levels and or decrease them. The researchers say that people need to incorporate at least four to six intense exercise sessions for 30 seconds and this will help keep blood sugar levels in check.
