The Benefits of Exercise

I practice what I preach as a diabetes nurse educator and health writer. Exercise is one of the best medicines at our disposal. I was hiking and birdwatching in these recent photos below but any exercise will do. 

Daily exercise and spending time enjoying the outdoors does wonders not only for our bodies, but also helps to maintain a sense of well being. 

Did you know that exercise helps your body respond better to the hormone insulin? Because of this, daily exercise is one of several ways you can help control your blood glucose.

Make it fun and you're more likely to do it. What exercise do you like to do?
