It should be able to exercise without major problems if it has the endorsement of a specialist and has an adequate medical treatment.

In our country it is a well -known disease and occurs in many people who practice sports since it is not a condition that disables them.

Given this, we decided to contact a specific example of a person who made this very clear.

Daniela Rojas is a lover of athletics and, although since the age of nine she was diagnosed with type1 diabetes, she understood that following the recommendations of the professionals, she could exercise without problems.

“Of course the key to anyone either diabetic or is not to exercise and feed properly.In my case as type 1 diabetic with much more reason to avoid hypoglycemic, so I try to have a balanced diet with all food groups according to my weight and age and making snacks between meals to avoid having low ones, ”he said.

Similarly, you have certain care every time you perform a training or physical competence.For example, she always measured sugar both before, during and after exercise.He says, helps him realize how his health is.

“In my special case, when I run, I tend to lower the sugar, so I must reduce the insulin dose, but it is always very important to remember that each body is different so the best thing one can do is checkGlycemia regularly to see how the exercise on our body is taking effect, ”said this amateur athlete.

For its part, Ricardo Benavides is physical educator and as he explains the most important thing is always to have the endorsement of a doctor.

“Diabetic people have the ability to do any sport as long as they have good medical control.You must first have the support of your doctor and then have your illness controlled, ”

If you are diabetic, put yourself in control with an expert and then do not let anything stop it.

Is exercise bad or good in diabetics?It is extremely good as long as it is practiced with the endorsement and monitoring of a doctor with emphasis on sport.What happens is that physical activity can help lower blood sugar without medications, so it is required to do all a planning for its abilities and objectives.

How can I start exercising if I'm diabetic?First of all looking for a doctor who authorizes it, then start gradually.A walk or a soft trot for about 30 minutes would be good options.

What should I do if during the exercise I begin to feel dizzy or some other symptoms?Stop immediately and seek to measure sugar.Later where your doctor and eat it.

And something very important that does not say that news, especially if an aerobic exercise of moderate or high intensity is done and regularly: to make an effort test, especially from a certain age (thirty -losses), in addition to an ultrasound at rest at restand another of stress.And repeat it after a few years (from 40, reduce the frequency of checks).
