Canadian Diabetes Association is related to this article. Your cells receive more insulin when you are active than when you are inactive. Thus your blood sugar levels stay at normal levels. Diabetes  can predispose  you to different  long-term illnesses  in almost every part of the body.

The processing  of glucose  requires insulin. Without insulin glucose can not reach your cells.  What happens is that following the digestion of your  food  glucose is produced and   with the help of insulin goes to your   bloodstream. If you are diagnosed with diabetes, depending on the type, you doctor may recommend either change of diet and exercise or medication to control your blood sugar level....
