Interrupting Sitting With Walks, Simple Resistance Activities May Reduce Lipids Linked To Inflammation

reports that research indicated “interrupting sitting with light walks or simple resistance activities reduced lipids associated with inflammation among adults with type 2 diabetes.” The researchers wrote, “We have shown that regular active interruptions in sitting may be of benefit in reducing postprandial pro-inflammatory lipids and increasing concentrations of lipids with antioxidant capacity in adults with well-controlled non-insulin dependent type 2 diabetes.” The findings were published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. http://www.healio.com/endocrinology/diabetes/news/in-the-journals/%7B4a545bc3-a86e-43a7-bdf0-abea196da05d%7D/intermittent-sitting-reduces-inflammatory-lipids-in-diabetes
