Scientists are beginning to uncover evidence that exercise can play a major role in managing diabetes, even in obese or overweight patients who lose little weight, reported experts at the 72nd Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association.

Clinicians have long been aware of the clear relationship between diabetes and obesity, and they often suggest exercise as a component of obesity treatment?with the caveat that exercise itself is helpful, but not sufficient, for treating obesity. But what if moderate amounts of exercise were enough to treat obesity-induced diabetes?
