Many of our patients in the Chicago Diabetes Program ask us if exercise will cure type 2 diabetes? Exercise done correctly is a good thing for all people, but can it cure diabetes?
Well if we look at history for evidience, it would seem that exercise is not the cure of diabetes or more specifically type 2 diabetes. Many people with type 2 diabetes start an exercise program only to find themselves frustrated as they don’t see the results they want.
Type 2 diabetes is a complex issue involving many organs. Exercise can be helpful, but it certainly can not correct all the issue that people with type 2 diabetes face.
