There are major forms of diabetes classified by the American Diabetes Association as type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes, the body's immune system kills the cells that release insulin, eventually eliminating insulin production. Without insulin, cells cannot absorb sugar (glucose), which is needed to produce energy. Type 2 diabetes, or also known as non-insulin dependent diabetes, the body isn't able to use insulin, or what is called insulin resistance. As type 2 diabetes progresses, the pancreas may make less and less insulin, which can lead to insulin deficiency. To this date, the American Diabetes Association has used four criteria methods to diagnosis diabetes that includes; glycated …show more content…
One of the first acute response the body has to exercise when looking at type 2 diabetes is that it has been shown that physical activity causes an increase in glucose uptake into working muscle with a balance of glucose production. As the exercise intensity increase, the fuel utilization of your body is being used from carbohydrates, or glucose. At rest, blood glucose uptake by muscles can be impaired in individuals with type 2 diabetes. During exercise, the working muscles are able to uptake glucose through a separate mechanism that is not affected by type 2 diabetes. A second body response to physical activity can be seen in the glucose levels post physical activity. Whether it be resistance or aerobic exercise, it has been reported that there is an increase in glucose uptake and increased insulin sensitivity for 2-72 hours post physical activity. It also has been stated that the combination of aerobic and resistance training together increase the effectiveness of the physical activity in concern to insulin and glucose levels. Overall, there are observations from previous research that supports the statement that physical activity can result in acute response of systemic insulin lasting from 2-72 hours. Chronic response from physical activity, resistance or aerobic, show the same trends as acute response, but continued over a longer time. Overall, a chronic response to physical activity is improved insulin sensitivity, increase blood glucose control, fat oxidation and muscle storage. Along with that, other chronic response to exercise include small reduction in LDL cholesterol, decrease in systolic blood pressure values, decrease in risk of causes of and mortality of coronary heart disease, weight loss, reduce depression, other physiological symptoms, and more. Overall, the the affect of physical activities, acute or chronic, show a positive response in the prevention, control, and
