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).
