If it's not working you should check inflammation blood work and deal with that as inflammation is closely linked with insulin resistance

Five minute walks are the best! Seven to ten minutes is even better!

Or 10 to 15! Or why not half an hour? The point of this video is that you don’t need to do more, you just need to do something.

This is great advice and absolutely true! I watch my glucose go down every night when I walk after dinner.

I started with a 10 min. walk after breakfast yesterday. Again today, and adding an after lunch walk. Feels good, and its interesting to see the neighborhood at different times of day. Tomorrow I’ll try walking after all three meals. Thank you. Before your video I only saw videos by young people advising an hour walk (I’m 77, and even though I’m retired I don’t want to take up that much time after each meal (especially in inclement weather!).

Its not that one should walk 1 hour after every meal, total walking time in a day should be 1 hour ,i.e. 1/2 hour in the morning & 1/2 hour in the evening, likewise you can split your walking time suitable for yourself.

Looks like I’ll be going for more walks, then. I usually go first thing in the morning when it’s cooler outside. So, I guess I will go for a few minutes after each meal. Hopefully that will help lower my blood sugar. Thanks for the tip.

I walk 1 hour after a meal Hiking up the mountain half day after a huge pizza(sharing with daughter) and a couple glasses of wine 🍷 After a breakfast 🥞 and a large Italian meal. We hiked 3 hours at the point lobos. I came home that night with 83 blood glucose result before bed Walk is the most effective medicine, not only for blood glucose, but overall wellness. It cost you nothing! Very enjoyable and efficient. Thank you doctor ❣️

I must start walking and exercising more you have literally given me incentive or food for thought😅❤😊😊 Blessings In The Name Of The Lord Jesus thank you

“ Walkers High” sets in at about 100 yards. Nothing but you and Nature. Never walk in noise…you’ll lose the mental benefit. The more serene, the better.

I am diabetic and have started walking after dinner. I do OMAD and take about a 20-30 minute walk after dinner.

Dr. Using a treadmill for a quick walk after eating, ok. When you can't get outside.

Thanks, Adam for sharing such a healthy tip for people like us.

Less likely to overeat!! So true. Appreciate these quick videos. Just long enough and still very motivating!

I would say, not right after but about 20 to 30 minutes after eating. The blood goes to the digestive system when we eat and need to stay there for some time.Then it goes to the muscles and then the liver.

Excellent information for motivation, short & to the point! Thank you Dr. Story 😊

Wow, thanks!

Digging those socks, man!

I work in a very busy kitchen, most of us eat whilst standing / whilst on the go, so I guess walking specifically is not needed vs eating sitting down and then to remain seated afterwards. What about if you do weights as an example in a fasted state, surely the muscles would be primed to soak up any glucose like a sponge? Cheers.

And fasting and eating fewer carbs less often can reverse type altogether! I’m not saying don’t walk, but add fasting and stop eating the carbs, especially the processed ones. If you can’t get out to walk, you can also do seated calf raises that pinpoint the proper calf muscle.

Should this walk be carried out immediately after food OR after taking 1/2 hr rest.???

Does indoor walking or circuit training achieve the same thing?

Grounding( walking barefoot on natural surface)even better.

@@AdamJStoryDC how about a treadmill? Is that good when you can’t get outside to walk?

I think it differs on people. I can walk a good 45 minutes right after eating and my blood sugar lowers maybe at most 5 to 10 points.

This video may appeal to overweight couch potatoes who watch tv or play video games a lot, and get zero exercise. I get more than two minutes of walking in just going from the parking garage to my desk at work every day. I do 45 minutes of cardio every day. Even that wouldn't guarantee weight loss, in the event that I had continued to overeat. Let's say, 4000 calories a day. it's probably over 3000.

@@danielhoward4566 This video doesn't appeal to this prediabetic, as it's a complex, multifactorial health condition. Though at the tactical level, some people may see a small drop in their post prandial glucose, few people will lose any weight walking for two minutes after a meal, or see any improvement in their biomarkers. You have to do at least thirty minutes a day of exercise to see any meaningful change. An hour's even better if they have time. At the population level, weight loss makes a big difference, as excess adipose tissue and insulin resistance go together. You could exercise a lot and still not be able to accomplish that. My liver makes a bit more glucose than my pancreas can handle, all the time.

When I can't go outside to walk, can I do 5 minutes of climbing up & down the stairs instead? Or do some resistance training like squats & push ups?

The human body needs to move. It is very intimately connected to our health. Movement.

After eating it is not advised to walk, as after eating heart has to work more and heart can have issues, walking is good nice the best but after 1.5 hours after the meals. Else heart might say Bye Bye
