A study conducted by researchers at Centro per le Malattie Endocrine e Metaboliche in Italy found that a single 30-minute aerobic exercise session significantly reduced 1-hour post-load plasma glucose levels and improved insulin sensitivity in young, healthy adults. The participants showed improvements in glucose metabolism following the exercise, indicating potential benefits in managing and preventing type 2 diabetes. The study suggests that even occasional physical activity could contribute to reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes through immediate improvements in glucose control.
