Blood glucose response following postprandial walking
Values for blood glucose in the walking condition are shown in table 2.
Baseline blood glucose was 103.5±3.6. When compared to the control
trial, blood glucose AUC following postprandial
walking was not different at any time point following the meal (table).
However, when comparing the absolute change in blood glucose among time
points between all conditions, it was revelated that postprandial
walking significantly attenuated the glucose spike from baseline to 30
minutes following the meal (walking 44.3±7.5 versus control 76.0±7.0, p
= .023).
