A person with type 2 diabetes can use exercise to help control
their blood sugar levels and provide energy their muscles need to
function throughout the day. By maintaining a healthy diet and
sufficient exercise, a person with type 2 diabetes may be able to
keep their blood sugar in the normal non-diabetic range without
medication.
