I think it's clear that exercise AFTER eating is optimal. It's more even. But any excercise is better than no exercise.

Great job. Thanks for putting a little science into my beliefs. I was diagnosed with Pre-diabetes and I am trying to reverse it. I have changed my diet, meditation daily, and use supplements. I try to have 1 cheat meal a week. I walk 30 minutes to the restaurant and 45 minutes after. It seems that my hypothesis might be right about exercise and blood glucose.

Thank you, Dr. Lara! Great material! I wish, if you haven't done yet (will go through your videos later as just found you), you could do the same for different times of day. Glucose in our body works differently in the morning and in the evening.

This video was perfect for me. Appreciate the experiment. I’m a fitness person, have a good diet (usually), and have normal blood sugar levels when I visit my doctor for a checkup. However, around 9:30 - 10:00am, I have a drop in energy every day. Usually, I have my first meal and am fine. But, right after that second small meal, I get hit with sluggishness. I have to eat because I’m hungry. Then, boom, get tired. I’ve been trying to figure out why I get this energy drop for some time as it’s a constant battle. But, sometimes i don’t get it at all and have perfect energy all day. I’ve been trying to figure it out. This provides some info about it. It’s too bad those glucose monitors require a prescription. Most of us don’t have one. I’ll ask for one next doctor visit. And will experiment with foods , consistency in workouts, and timing to try and optimize this.

In the "exercise and then smoothie" you should have measured blood glucose before starting exercise, I suppose that starting from a lower blood glucose can help a lot even if there is a peak. I've the doubt that before exercise you blood glucose was higher than baseline reported in your diagram. Furthermore high intensity exercise can increase blood glucose so you should have expect 30-60 min before eating.

Thank you for the video, sorry for my bad english, cheers from Argentina

Some articles i have read says that exercise after eating redirects blood away from digestive system to the muscles being exercised, for them this is not good since digestion needs to be prioritized after eating
@raia427872 ай бұрын
I'm not sure how true this is. Last month I came across a woman who was giving tips on how to lower your blood sugar throughout the day. She said walk for 10 min after one of your meals. I started doing that after every meal and I have to use the bathroom very quickly afterwards most of the time. Then I saw someone else recently talking about taking walks after meals and how she also needs the restroom soon after her walk. If you google it, you can find some results talking about how being in the upright walking position stimulates your digestive tract and helps it work more effectively. I have also seen people say it's bad for digestion in the past but from experience I don't think that's the case. However I would think overall, it's much healthier to move your body as much as possible throughout the day, and after every meal helps me stay on track and gives me a goal to try and lower my blood sugar.

What about FGL and A1C values for endurance athletes? Any of this information doesn't seen to apply to endurance athletes. I'm an endurance athlete cycling up to 100 miles in one ride few days in a row at a fast pace with no fatigue, and working out with with weights several times a week on empty stomach, and measured pre-diabetic (close to a cusp) on the FGL and A1C tests. Blew my mind.

Can Someone help me make the right decision - I have been a prediabetic past ten years - 66-year old male in India. 6 ft - and 157 pounds - No diabetes medication. Taking a statin drug and blood thinner due to keep my cholesterol levels down. With exercise, dieting - includes a cup and half of rice every day - I am able to keep my PP blood sugar under 200. Some times it goes up to 220. Should I start medication ?

Based on your other video. 30 minutes of walking before a meal does not significantly blunt a glucose spike But a 7 minute HIIT session before a meal does nullify a significant spike and maintain a relatively steady glucose level. Can that HIIT session be measured via Heart Rate so one has a approximate intensity goal to reach for 7-10 minutes? Vs say heart rate via walking. Personally if I go too intense with a workout regardless if I’ve eaten (say outright sprinting or heavy lifting) feels like I go through a significant blood sugar spike that takes a long time to go down. Prefer walking to address glucose levels but want to experiment with finding that sweet spot of intensity with exercise measured via heart rate so I don’t overdo it and may be able to prevent a spike with less time and more heart healthy activity. Ty for all the great work
