WALKING AFTER MEALS - a simple habit to stabilize blood sugar!

Did you know that just 10-15mins of walking immediately after a heavy meal can significantly reduce your blood glucose spike?

A study in 2017 had showed that moderate-intensity brisk walking for 15min after each meal resulted in a significant decrease in blood glucose profile and HbA1c in patients with diabetes, as compared to one-time daily brisk walking.

For people living with diabetes, this is one of the easiest and most effective ways to stabilize sugar levels ....no equipment, no gym, no cost!

Try these simple ideas:
🚶‍♂️Take a short walk after breakfast, lunch, or dinner
🛋️ break long sitting hours- move every 30minutes
- march in place
- walk along the corridor
- add light exercise i.e sit-to-stands, wall push-ups

"EVERY STEP AFTER A MEAL IS MEDICINE"

Practice these habits, and your body will thank you.

18th October : World Menopause Day

Menopause is a naturally occuring life stage for woman at certain age.

The average age of menopause in Malaysian women is around 50.7 years. As our women’s life expectancy is 77.9 years, hence 1/3 of our life is spent beyond menopause.

A recent study had shown that the most prevalent symptoms of menopause among Malaysian women are joint pain ( 73%) and tiredness ( 59.3%), followed by vasomotor symptoms ( 55%).

Beside Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT), adopting healthy lifestyle practices can help manage your menopause symptom and reduce your risk of developing chronic diseases.

A simple exercise eg brisk walking had shown to have many benefits in reducing your menopause symptoms too.

“ Life doesn’t end with menopause; it’s the beginning of a new adventure. Strap in and enjoy the ride “ ~ Helen Mirren, Actress

Do you know that by brisk walking at Pantai Tg Batu, Bintulu for 5 km (1 hour), will cover at least 6500 steps?

Although 10 000 steps/day can still be a viable target for those who are more active, 7000 steps/day is associated with clinically meaningful improvements in health outcomes, and might be a more realistic and achievable target for some:

🚶‍♀️‍➡️6000 steps/day help lower risk of Type 2 Diabetes especially in older women.
🚶‍♂️ 6500 steps/day is associated with lower blood pressure.

The bottom line is, whether you walk 2500 steps or 10000 steps, every step counts toward a healthier, longer life.

How many steps have you covered today?
