Holistic Health Practitioner Tonya Fines discusses the impact of exercise on your blood sugar. For many people, they aren’t entirely sure what blood sugar or blood glucose levels are and why they’re important. Our activity has a tremendous effect on our bodily processes, how we feel and how we need to fuel our body prior to exercise.
When you exercise, your body requires energy from blood sugar โฆ this is called glucose. When you do something quickly, like a sprint up the stairs your muscles and liver release glucose for fuel.
Now when you do moderate exercise for a longer time, like go on a long hike, your muscles require much more glucose. THIS helps lower blood sugar levels. Exercise lowers blood sugar over a 24-hour period, but sometimes exercise also briefly raises blood sugar following a workout.
Hereโs how all of that works:
Overall, even moderate exercise, such as a nice walk, raises your heart rate, increases your breathing, and boosts muscle activity. All of these increases of your bodyโs systems need to be fueled, meaning, they require sugar. Some of this sugar comes from your bloodstream.
And some of it comes from glucose that is stored in your muscles and liver, and this is the key to the 24 hour blood sugar-lowering effect of exercise. Over the 24 hours following exercise your body re-stocks these reserves, slowly but steadily by sucking sugar out of your bloodstream.
So why then does exercise sometimes raise blood sugar for a short period of time? The most common way is from stress hormones. Any workout thatโs greater than moderate is going to release adrenaline, which is basically pouring sugar into your system. But this doesnโt mean that that strenuous exercise is a bad thing, it just means you need to accept that you may see a slight increase in your blood sugar if you break a sweat.
The good news is that adrenaline is a short-acting sugar so your body will essentially clean it up quickly, and youโll still get that 24 hour lowering effect from your exercise. Another reason as to how exercise can increase blood sugar has to do with the availability of insulin in your system.
If your insulin level is low, your body canโt move sugar from your blood into the cells where itโs needed. This means that your cells blind are not aware there is any sugar for them to use
When this happens they assume there is no sugar available to them so they send out signals for reserves in the liver and kidneys to be used. THIS causes a further increase in blood sugar levels that may already be too darn high to start with.
