As a diabetic you know that a healthy physical activity level slows down the development of your disease. If muscles are not used enough, the muscle cells become insensitive for insulin, while insulin helps the necessary nutrion pass the cell walls. That's why more and more insulin is needed and that causes the pancreas to be overloaded, with the consequences you know as a diabetic all too well. Increasing the sensitivity for insulin by becoming more active will decrease the load on the pancreas. This will prevent more serious complications to happen later in the disease.
