A NEW study will explore whether just 30 minutes of exercise a week can reduce the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes.
People who are overweight and inactive are most at risk of becoming insulin resistant, which increases the body’s blood sugar levels and can ultimately lead to the disease.
High intensity interval training, which is characterised by short bursts of intense exercise interspersed with periods of rest, has been shown to deliver striking health benefits, including improvements to insulin sensitivity, in as little as two to six weeks.

It will be interesting to see the results, given the type of publicity given to this kind of thing.
