I am athletic but a Type II Diabetic. I work out in the mornings alone. I eat normally and healthy not specifically a diabetic diet. My HBA1C is between 5-6, and my PP 120-130. My question is that, does exercise have a 24 hour effect or should one exercise after each meal. I feel I will be overexercising. Also my morning exercise consists of 2 KM Jog and 2 Km walk and 1/2 hour weights training with moderate weights and then core exercises. Kindly advise.

Hello, Thanks for the query. The effect of exercise (done once a day) does last for the whole day. In fact a diabetic person is advised to exercise at least 5 days a week to help better glucose control Since you are an athlete, I am sure your exercises must be quite substantial. There is no need to do second session in the same day. Thanks.
