Exercise
Exercising is a powerful way to lower your blood sugar. If you exercise you can improve insulin sensitivity for 24 to 48 hours. So, try to get at least 30 minutes a day of exercise, most days of the week.
Lose weight
If you are obese or overweight, you are up to 40 times more likely to get diabetes. If you aim for a 5% to 10% weight loss you can cut your diabetes risk in half.
