@harvesthealthymd: What if I told you that this (10 bodyweight squats) can control your blood sugar better than this (a continuous walk)? I did the research as a physician so you don’t have to. Most of us sit all day long and then try to fix it with a walk later. But studies show that doing 10 bodyweight squats every 45 minutes improves blood sugar control after meals better than taking one continuous walk. Squatting activates large muscle groups more intensely, which helps your body handle blood sugar more effectively. Don’t get me wrong — walking is still infinitely better than just sitting. But if you can do short squat breaks throughout the day instead of waiting for a longer walk later, the research says it can work even better. Simple. No equipment. Try it. Which one are you going to try first — the walk or the squat? #BloodSugarControl #ActivitySnacks #PhysicianTips #MetabolicHealth #Squats
