Abstract: A study published in the journal Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism examined the impact of sedentary behavior on glucose concentration in individuals with type 1 diabetes. The study found that increased sitting time and long sedentary bouts were positively associated with higher same-day mean glucose levels. However, sedentary breaks did not show a significant association with glucose levels. The study suggests that reducing sitting time may be an effective strategy for improving glucose control in individuals with type 1 diabetes. The findings highlight the importance of physical activity in managing diabetes, although further research is needed to confirm these results.
