One-year caloric restriction and 12-week exercise training intervention in obese adults with type 2 diabetes: emphasis on metabolic control and resting metabolic rate

Randomized Controlled Trial
Human
2019 Dec

This study found that when obese adults with diabetes exercised more and burned more calories through activity, they lost more weight, body fat, and improved their blood sugar levels. More exercise = better results.

In obese adults with type 2 diabetes, a year-long program that includes eating fewer calories and 12 weeks of supervised exercise is linked to measurable improvements in blood sugar control, body fat, aerobic fitness, and healthy cholesterol levels.

In obese adults with type 2 diabetes, losing weight through diet and exercise improves blood sugar control, reduces body fat, and increases aerobic fitness, and these improvements continue for at least one year after the program ends.
