How many steps we should be walked every day to reduce the blood sugar?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Any exercise helps: Whether walking, taking water aerobics, going to the gym to work out on a spinning bike, ANY exercise can help you reduce your blood sugar. Many people aim for 10,000 steps a day - but start with 1000 and work up. The free App, "Moves" can help you track your steps. So can a FitBit device or a pedometer. Good luck. LGromkoMD

Is it fatigue, eyes, ears, low blood sugar, or other? Last 3 days i slept 5 hrs each day. Lately when i walk i feel off-balance & kinda off with my concentration, b/p checked as normal, pulse bit high
I've had a sudden blood sugar spike, i drank some cold water and walked. It went down. And then went back up 15 minutes later.
Why does my blood sugar go up when i don't eat? Also after a 60 - 90 minute walk? It sounds counterintuitive. Goes up from 80 to 100. Not taking meds.
I went for a brisk walk and after had 3 hard boiled eggs and an apple. Right after my blood sugar was 106. An hour later it was 86. Is this normal?
