Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) or often referred to as diabetes is a condition in which the body cannot produce the hormone insulin as needed, resulting in a spike in blood sugar levels that exceed normal. Diabetes Mellitus type 2 is characterized by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and relative impairment of insulin secretion. In this discussion, we will discuss about Therapeutic Exercise Exercise walking. One of the pillars in management and efforts to prevent complications in diabetes is physical activity.
