In the busy rhythm of life, we often ignore the simplest and most effective health secret around us — walking. That’s right. It’s the “walking” that seems to be flat, but powerful. You may not know that walking has its “magic speed” and that when we have the secret, blood sugar and blood resin will go down!
First of all, let’s talk about why walking can reduce blood sugar and blood resin. When we walk, the body needs more energy to support movement, which means that more sugar and fat need to be burned. It’s like giving the body a natural “fat factory” that helps us to consume extra sugar and fat.
So, what’s the speed of walking to effectively reduce blood sugar? Studies have shown that taking 2-3 steps per second, or about 120-144 steps per minute, has helped to improve the heart rate and activate the CPR function. This speed can increase insulin sensitivity, improve sugar metabolism, consume energy and help reduce body weight, thereby reducing blood sugar.
It’s important not only to walk at the right pace, but also to be in positions. The correct walking position should be a longer walk than normal, a lighter walk, a small knee on the ground, a quick movement of the weight of the body, a straight upper body and a natural arms-strangling arm. Avoiding wrong positions, such as humpbacks, stomachs and feet, not only does not provide exercise, but also hurts knee joints, spines, etc.
While walking is good, the following should be noted in order to ensure that the reduction of blood glucose is doubled: (1) Walking time: preferably after 30 minutes after eating, so as not to affect food digestion. (2) Warming: Before walking, be careful to warm up, awaken body muscles and reduce physical damage. (3) Duration: In order to be effective for the heart and lungs, it is necessary to maintain this feeling for 20-30 minutes or more when you feel your breathing rush and your body sweats.
Walking is not just a sport, it is a living attitude. By walking correctly, we can improve health and improve the quality of life. So let’s put on our sneakers and start our healthy journey!
