The Effect of Exercise on the Levels of Various Vitamins
in Diabetic PatientsExercise has a positive impact on vitamin levels, particularly vitamin D, in diabetic patients, with benefits extending to improved insulin sensitivity and overall metabolic health. Moderate-intensity exercise, like walking or swimming, can increase vitamin D receptors in muscle and adipose tissue, and in some cases, serum vitamin D levels. Furthermore, exercise can enhance the effects of vitamin D supplementation, leading to better blood sugar control and reduced risk of diabetic complications. This book has seven chapters, including Background on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Effects of Exercise on Vitamin Absorption, Clinical Implications and Recommendations for Exercise and Vitamin Management in Diabetic Patients, Exercise and Cardiac Inflammation in T2DM, Exercise-Mediated Modulation of Vitamin K and Osteocalcin, Interpretation of Results in the Context of Pathophysiology, and Changes in Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG).
