The easiest thing you can do to prevent and control diabetes

Accordingly, spending more time outdoors not only helps prevent but also helps treat type 2 diabetes, according to medical website Medical News Today.

Spending more time outdoors helps prevent type 2 diabetes

Metabolism and insulin resistance are tied to the body's natural clock, and increasing exposure to natural light may help both, researchers explain.

Co-leader of the research team, Mr. Ivo Habets, PhD student at Maastricht University (Netherlands), said: The deviation of the body's internal biological clock increases the rate of diabetes. And daylight is the strongest signal to the biological clock.

To test this theory, researchers monitored the metabolism of 13 diabetic patients while they were exposed to natural light.

Exposure to natural light helps maintain stable blood sugar levels

As a result, the research team found that during exposure to natural light, participants maintained stable blood sugar levels for longer periods of time, according to Medical News Today.

The results also showed that in natural light, genes that help control circadian rhythms were also more active.

The findings suggest that exposure to natural daylight is beneficial for metabolism and may help treat and prevent type 2 diabetes, the researchers say.

Expert Habets said: In addition to taking advantage of daylight, we need to combine it with a healthy diet, regular exercise, enough sleep..., which will help effectively prevent the development of diabetes.
