Regular activity is important for overall fitness, weight management and blood glucose control. With appropriate levels of exercise, those at risk for type 2 diabetes can reduce that risk, and those with diabetes can improve blood glucose control. Being active can also help improve body mass index, enhance weight loss, help control lipids and blood pressure and reduce stress. Physical activity can take many forms - dance, team sports or yoga.
